James L. Merriner: Mr Inside Out

Merriner's Chicago Mag story on Rezko is available online. A quote from Ray Hanaia,

Hanania criticizes Arab American business leaders as "a small cluster of activists, and they are all in trouble. They had a push for clout empowerment, not community empowerment—you know, a hunger for being part of the system, sharing the perks among the insiders. When you connect all the names and lines, it's going to look like a spider web."

Clout empowerment, that's the Chicago away for sure.
