Sam Zell: F&*$%@#G Democrats

Apparently the new Tribune Co. owner is no fan of the Democratic party. E&P notes that on CNBC’s Squawk Box on Tuesday, Sam Zell “attributed much of the current economic woes to fear-mongering by Democratic foes Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama.

In unrelated Zell news, The journalistic curiousity drops his beloved F-bomb on the D.C. buro of the Chicago Tribune while the Chicago Sun-Times urges baseball fans (i.e. the whole city) to pressure Zell into not selling Wrigley Field’s name out to the highest bidder. Good luck with that.
