The elder Mayor Daley speaks again
I came across these killer quotes by the first Mayor Daley in John Ortberg's The Life You've Always Wanted.
About the '68 riots: "the police are not here to create disorder. The police are here to preserve disorder."
"They have vilified me, they have crucified me, yes, they have even criticized me."
And, what seems to be ortberg's favorite, "Anybody can make allegations-but where are the alligators?"
Yes, HE DID ACTUALLY SAY THAT!
