Sixty-five years after his death, the ghost of Tom "Boss" Pendergast is still alive in Kansas City. Ask the power brokers who have indentured Kansas City taxpayers for generations to help finance private bars and restaurants.

Hermann Praises Own Honesty, Character, Dignity, Humility
In a lengthy interview with the Hispanic News, City Councilwoman Deb Hermann praised herself lavishly for a wide variety of virtues. These include her "professionalism, honesty and strength of character." Beyond these, Hermann also admires her own "calm, dignified leadership." If these were not enough, Hermann stuns even herself with how "caring," "thoughtful," and "serious" she can be. Above all, Hermann is enchanted by her own humility and promises to take the "'I' out of your sentences as often as possible and replace it with 'we.'" Obama-Hermann 2012? Or should it be Hermann-Obama?
