She never took any action as U.S.Attorney without the o.k. from Bart Peterson and especially John Dillon? Susan Brooks is also a closet racist and has no respect for Gay Rights. I have heard it said that she was rewarded with the IV Tect. Legal Job because of her efforts in protecting certain inner city gaming houses and the polticans on their payroll.

Ballard is so naive and being suckered that I think he will give Ike a high profile position and then the info from the backgroung check will come forward.
