Why hasn't the Portland city council demanded that O'Dea be fired immediately? This is not a case where "you don't mess with my bureaus I won't mess with yours" should be allowed to prevail. This is more evidence that our antiquated Commission Form of city government is NOT working.

What the hell is mayor Hales waiting for? Is there anyone who doesn't think that O'Dea should be and eventually will be fired? Take early retirement to spend more time with his family?  There is no way O'Dea could possibly have any credibly left with Portland citizens much less lead our police department.
