POL, Stroger isolates himself from citizens & media

Cook County Board President Todd Stroger has increased the size of his security detail while demanding other elected officials cut their budgets by 17%.

Daily Southtown editorial rips on Stroger for isolating himself from the media and the voters.
The issue: Recently elected Cook County Board President Todd Stroger has instituted measures that isolate him from the masses -- including reserving a private elevator in the County Building.

We say: These measures are pompous and prevent Stroger from keeping in touch with the people he's elected to serve.

  • It should be obvious that there are legitimate concerns for his safety. Perhaps there's credible evidence of a plan to wipe him out. Were it me, I'd do the same thing. Also, I'd tell any naysayers to kiss my ass.
