First, there was the news that Charlie Sheen was on yet another cocaine binge, this time with a porn star locked in hotel room closet. Then, there was Sheen’s in-home rehab. Next was the news that CBS was canceling the final eight episodes of “Two and a Half Men,” followed by Sheen’s bizarre media tour where he blamed everyone but himself, and spoke of reports about his behavior as “the gibberish of fools.” He did, however, admit to being under the influence of one drug: “Charlie Sheen.”

I don't judge people with whom I disagree on values or political positions; however, if you can't back up your opinions with facts, expect an open season for ridicule.
Mayor Daley is hands-down the best mayor in the country.
