Todd Stroger has a blog.
I got the idea for starting my own blog when I found out Barak Obama had started one.
Barak Obama
I have been extremely busy working on the budget that is due shortly. I had a very limited amount of time to go over the extraordinarily large amount of details and data. I have worked very hard with Dr. Robert Simon, and he has been working very hard on the Health care budget. Actually everyone has been working very hard at balancing the Cook County Budget and I appreciate everyone's efforts, and they will not go unnoticed.
I have been unable to attend any public hearings due to the large amount of time I must spend on the budget. I don't have a minute to spare at this point. I am trying very hard to be fair to all departments, but the needs of the Cook County residents are very important to me. So is sticking to my campaign promise of not raising taxes as so many residents have expressed their importance of this.
I am trying very hard to start with a new budget on March 1st, a new improved budget to get Cook County moving in the right direction. I appreciate everyone's patience. I intend to keep Cook County moving in the right direction, and I have a lot of work ahead of me. I accept this challenge willingly, and will keep working with much ambition.

MR PRESIDENT SOMETIMES YOU ARE TO MUCH OF A GENTLEMAN AND SOME PEOPLE JUST NEED TO BE CALLED OUT ON SOME OF THE CRAZY THINGS THEY DO.

Happy new year Stroger...Hope all is well. By the way, Obama, Clinton or Edwards?... I like Kucinich and wish he got more airplay.
Fire the 1100 people you added to the already-bloated number of employees and you won't need the tax hike.
