To All Skokie Residents:

The ordinary people that work at or for the Village of Skokie are good, honest and hard working people. They have kids just like you and me. Police officers hate issuing tickets more than you hate getting them. They became police officers to be a superhero, fight crime and stop the bad guys. Peace officers put there badge and risk their lives for us. Likewise other employed people like firefighters, teachers and social workers are really hard working, honest and motivated public servants.

Brief Case Study & Exapmle:
The failures in Iraq and Afghanistan are the failures of our elected officials in Congress and the White House. Not our soldiers. The patriotism, bravery and sacrifices of our armed service members are incredible. The US armed services have accomplished everything they were ordered to do and then some more. The officials in Congress and the White House (Both Obama & Bush Administration) have consistently failed to have Iraq’s & Afghanistan’s neighboring nation’s states to replace our US personnel with their respective armed forces. In other words, except for the executive branch, the public servants of the Village of Skokie are innocent. Nevertheless, when our brave women and men return back home, they deserve much better leadership then we presently have. From Capitol Hill to the heartland of America like small municipalities and townships like Skokie.

Enron all over again?
The scathing criticisms here are directed solely, specifically and intentionally at the executive branch of the Village of Skokie. The Mayor, Village Manager and any other officers of the Village of Skokie that make decision and policy makers are responsible for the wellbeing, safety and prosperity of Skokie. I have heard so many complaints by so many peoples. And yes, some employees of the Village of Skokie has said they are concerned but are afraid to say anything for fear of losing their jobs in these terrifying economic times of unemployment.

The Village of Skokie is like a marvelous ship; Full of wonders and treasures with all the many diverse residents bring with them. But if the ship is sinking into economic abyss because it is heading in the wrong direction of nepotism, corruption and bankruptcy then it is time for change. The ship needs a new captain democratically elected by the people for the people.
