Daley scorns cabbie dress code idea

Chicago's Democratic Mayor Daley has reached a point where he has decided that enough is enough - when it comes to the far-reaching hand of a would-be nanny approach to public policy.

A dress code for cabdrivers. A ban on the sale of foie gras in Chicago restaurants. To Mayor Daley, it's all part of the same slippery slope: a Big Brother intrusion into the lives of Chicagoans that he wants no part of. "We're trying to tell people they can't eat certain foods. They can't buy certain foods. They can't ship certain foods in. Pretty soon, you can't drink. Do you really want government to keep telling you every day what to do?" Daley said.

The Chief finds it encouraging that even a died-in-the-wool Democrat like the mayor still has enough reason to say STOP! Maybe there's some hope for the Donks yet.

Nazi hunter dies at 96

It's worth noting the passing of this man, who survived the Nazis to spend the rest of his life bringing members of the 3rd Reich Marching and Murder Club to justice.

Wiesenthal died in his sleep at his home in Vienna, said Rabbi Marvin Hier, dean and founder of the Simon Wiesenthal Center in Los Angeles. ?I think he?ll be remembered as the conscience of the Holocaust. In a way he became the permanent representative of the victims of the Holocaust, determined to bring the perpetrators of the greatest crime to justice,? Hier told The Associated Press.

He was a true mensch. 'nuff said.
