Ricardo Munoz and The Irishman

Highly paid political hitman Andrew "The Irishman" Sharp is still bouncing in and out of Chicago. He is working for the 2008 congressional campaign of Chicago Alderman Ricardo Munoz ("moon-yoze") of the 22nd Ward. Munoz will run to take the place of retiring U.S. Rep. Luis Gutierrez (D-Ill.) in Congress.

(For future reference: Ricardo Munoz - Money, 2008, Illinois, Congress, 2008)

This is no surprise, really, as Munoz and 49th Ward Alderman Joe Moore are both tight with the Howard Dean crowd and the Democratic National Committee (DNC).

Andrew Sharp has been known to present himself as "Seamus," an Irishman living in Chicago's Old Town neighborhood. His bizarre behavior recently, stalking this blogger and lying about his identity, is chronicled in the posting "BIZARRE ENCOUNTER WITH ANDREW SHARP."

Sharp was instrumental in producing falsehoods and lies for the Joe Moore re-election campaign in the 49th Ward of Chicago. Moore barely won that in April, and massive fraud charges have been brought by Moore's challenger Don Gordon.

A "progressive," Andrew "Seamus" Sharp likes to quote dead communist Chinese dictator Mao tse Tung on his company's web site. "Politics is war without bloodshed" is on Sharp's web site. It is half of a Mao quote, which in full is, "Politics is war without bloodshed while war is politics with bloodshed."

From Sharp's web site:

4th Congressional District Democratic Leader Ricardo Munoz
The campaign for Democratic leader of the 4th Congressional District in Illinois this year was viewed as a preview of the fight to replace US Rep. Luis Gutierrez, who has announced plans to retire. The direct mail program created by Andrew Sharp helped progressive Alderman Ricardo Munoz overcome a challenge by the powerful Daley political machine. SOURCE...

It will be interesting to see if Munoz runs the same kind of filthy campaign that Joe Moore ran.
