Chicago Still Running an Illegal Patronage Operation Federal Monitor Claims

The Chicago Tribune reports:

Mayor Richard Daley's administration still isn't following basic rules designed to keep city hiring free of politics, a court-appointed official said Thursday.

A year after submitting a blueprint to clean up its scandal-plagued hiring system, the city has "failed to comply" with parts of its own plan, city hiring monitor Noelle Brennan said in a report filed in federal court.


"Instances of non-compliance this soon after the adoption of the [plan] are particularly disturbing and need to be addressed as quickly as possible," Brennan said.

Look who the law breakers are.No word yet from Obama the "unreformer" on this one.
