Letter should have linked Obama to Capone

Thanks to Gene R. Brodrecht of Marion (Dec. 20 letter, “Obama brought Chicago corruption to D.C.”) who has blown the cover off Barack and Michelle Obama, who “hobnobbed” with “terrorists, crooks,” and “slum lords” and moved their “Chicago style thuggery to Washington.”
I am surprised he failed to mention that Obama was fingered as one of Al Capone's triggermen in the 1929 Valentine's Day Chicago gangland massacre and that the evidence disappeared mysteriously the day before the presidential inauguration. Stay alert for further developments.
