Add me to the list of folks who have zero interest in Chicago. I often feel this way about Oscar winners. I had no interest in A Beautiful Mind. I had no interest in Braveheart. Overhyped movies tend to be filled with a lot of fooferaw and that comes out in the reviews.
Just saw Halle in Monsters Ball and thought she did a pretty reasonable job there. She also did strike me as black. I don't think she won the award for being light-skinned -- that might help her in the product-endorsements and glossy-magazine-covers department. I understand your point, but I don't see it as a reason to resent her or anything... someone's got to break the path, as it were.
