Marty Sweeney was elected president of Cleveland City Council in Dec. 2005. He will step down from that position at the end of this year, though he plans to remain on council. 

At the end of tonight's meeting, he thanked some council members and city staff -- and tried to settle scores with others. He hit back against criticism that he redistricted council members' wards behind closed doors. His directed his most pointed comments at Councilman Mike Polensek.

After he finished his speech, Sweeney opened a hidden door just behind the council president's dais and dashed from the chamber. He came right back, though, to get his things.

WKYC's Russ Mitchell asked Mayor Frank Jackson at his State of the City talk whether the Cleveland Indians should do away with their Chief Wahoo logo. Jackson said that's the team's decision. But he went on to say that if Native Americans find the logo offensive, no one has the right to tell them otherwise.

"If there's Americans -- Native Americans -- who believe that's offensive to them, who am I to tell them it's not?" Jackson said. "So if they believe it's offensive, then it's offensive, and I support whatever they want to do."
