Seattle Police Chief Leaving for Obama Administration?

The P-I is reporting that Seattle Police Chief Gil Kerlikowske may be following King County Exec Ron Sims to D.C. While no official announcement has been made, the P-I reports that "sources within the local law enforcement community have said that recently set plans indicate Kerlikowske has been chosen for a federal post." The nature of that post remains unclear, though the rumor is Drug Czar.

If Gil's drug approach is as hands off as his gang approach we should expect to see bongs and syringes all over the national mall in short order.

I for one have high hopes this is the first small step in a long journey of re-focusing our attention on real drugs.

Like Kanye.

Threepeat - take old man Nichols along with Sims and this loser Gil. Our city will be far better off.
