You do not need to lie about people to defame them.

You have no concept of what defamation is about. It is not my function to be your law professor, however.

The innuendo you use is so personally offensive to so many people from the taxi industry who post here and who read postings that it amazes me you have been able to get away with your nonsense. I expect the reason you do get away with it has much to do with the tacit blessing of George Lutfallah and the prominence he allows your postings to have.

As for Mayor Daley appointing you to ANY executive position, don't hold your breath. Mr. Daley is far too sophisticated to make that kind of mistake. It has nothing to do with your felony background. It has more to do with your complete want of administrative experience and total lack of educational training. Say what you like of the last several Commissioners of DCS, at least they were women of letters - trained administrators who had experience in working with people instead of just insulting them.

You don't have to lie about people to defame them. You just have to defame them. You have done that time and again - deftly. Your racial slurs and ethnic epithets hardly endear you to people either. Ask a few of your victims, all of whom can now be counted among a growing list of those who hardly admire you.

Most of those people are just waiting for you to go down on your next felony charge.

Well said Mr. Nathan.

Mr. Nathan,

A lie is a fundamental requisite of defamation, Mr. Nathan. You don't know the law.

I am amazed that you passed the bar if you aren't aware of the simple fact that a lie is a fundamental requisite of defamation.

I haven't "gotten away" with anything, Mr. Nathan.

I'm glad your silliness has come full circle:

First, you suggest that I am on the "short list" or "next in line" for the position of DCS Commissioner.

Now you tell me not to "hold my breath" because Mayor Daley is "far too sophisticated to make that kind of mistake".

I wasn't "holding my breath", Mr. Nathan. I was laughing my ass off at your buffoonery. I still am.

I don't think I am the only one.

Again, Mr. Nathan, a lie is a fundamental requisite of defamation. I dropped out of high school, yet I know at least that much about the law.

Why don't you?

If you are truly "waiting for (me) to go down on (my) next felony charge", I have only one legal request of you...

Hold your breath. For everybody's sake.

-Mike Foulks

You'll get some respect when you are no longer a convicted felon and you are ready to sit for the Bar Exam.

You just might have some trouble getting past the Committee on Character and Fitness even if you ever do graduate from college and then graduate from law school.

Having ANY conviction for ANY crime is a problem. Having SEVERAL convictions is something of a stumbling block. Having as much as an arrest takes a good bit of explanation.

I'm sure you will garner my respect and the respect of all who read the postings on this website when you achieve something in life other than the distinction of being a junkyard dog.

When you get to that point, mr. mike, then you can tell us all that I don't know what I am talking about as a lawyer with some authority. Until then, you just sound like a male version of Sarah Palin.

I guess there's not much difference between dressing moose and tossing sheep dip over your shoulder.

Best luck with your next election. Has Ms. Callahan accepted the opportunity to run for office? I would expect NOT. She has way too much class.

what if george and mike were married? then they would have to open the books of chicago dispatcher and cco to see if there was any wrongdoing. would they file taxes togeterh? what a bout a prenut-tual agreement?

they could get married in san francisco now. then if george run for election in cco they need another election judge to count ballots because mike would be the wife.

george i think you have to get a divorce from carriage first.

i said knock it off.

Lets keep it civil here. One thing though, George now has ties to two brothers that are taxicab vets. He is married on the North side now. He already struck out with the Russian mob. Trouble is he's with the Italians. Do these guys still lop off heads when they get tired of someone?

I'm still alive. The B brothers are civilized. They don't do bad things to people when they tire of them. I worked with them back in the '90's and I'm still here. Whether or not they tire of George, they will certainly treat him with the respect he deserves.

My previous comments were little more than joke Mr. Nathan. The other guy thought George was still affiliated with the so called Russian mob. I just made a joke that he switched to the maffia. I wasn't really serious as the two brothers probably couldn't even tell me where a good casino was. They are more like sheep than bulls.

I too was affiliated with the American United bunch in the 90's as you well know. I still stand by my previous comments that you did well to recover my losses more than once. I am sure our paths will cross agiain one day. Anyway, Thanks for helping us drivers! You are A REAL HERO TO US!

I don't post here seekeing praise, but when it comes it sure is appreciated just the same. Thank you.

Roger and Bobby were always good to me. Their dad was a prince - may he rest in peace. I could never do enough for Big Tony. And I only wish I had the chance to succeed for him the more before he passed away. The lot of them were always clean as a whistle in a tough business - honorable to a fault. Quote me.
