Illinois public opinion turns against President Obama's health care and economic policies
The Examiner ^ | 09/07/09 | J Brown

Posted on 09/07/2009 6:36:34 AM PDT by Jabrown

July and August have not been good months for the Democrat Party or the White House. Public opinion, nationwide, has turned against the Democrat's proposed health care reform legislation, violence in Afghanistan has risen, job losses continue to mount and just Saturday one of the Presidents close advisers was forced to resign. Just when the President thought things couldn't get worse, he now knows that even his home State of Illinois has turned against his Health Care plan and economic policies.

A Chicago Tribune poll conducted of 700 registered voters over the last four days of August showed some troubling signs for the President in his home state...

"Ah, I see you've been there (Chicago)".

I was born and raised in the beautiful Chicago suburb of Oak Park....also the home of Ernest Hemingway and Frank Lloyd Wright.

Having served as an elected person from Du Page County (GOP suburban county adjacent to Cook County and home of the late, great Cong. Henry Hyde), and being an observant person, I ought to know about the Windy City and its culture of corruptness, LOL.

Yes, I should have said “even more so.”

For sure! And someone needs to ask Van Jones a question:

Where is it safer to live now? On the streets of Baghdad or on the streets of Obama's old 'hood where so many innocent people--including little children--have been gunned down by men who hardly fit the profile of white supremacists.

Heck, over 25 years when I was a EEO counselor, a black male co-worker (who happened to be a very dear friend) told me that when he went to visit someone on the South side of Chicago, he couldn't wait to get out of there because, and I quote HIS words:

"those n-----s sooner kill you as look at you!"

Since then things in that part of Chicago have only gotten uglier, and, quoting my friend again: "God doesn't like ugly". Unforunately, it has gotten way too politically incorrect to remind people like Van Jones and his sycophants that UGLY has no color!

Excellent post. In fact, I’m borrowing a few words for a new tagline. I like to keep changing it....and this is a good one!

We shall see what kind of mental health he provides himself with. Him trying to turn this country into some Lego doll puppet re-enactment of his self-flattery is not so cute. I don’t want to be his “Robot Chicken” clay entertainment.

Oh, if only we let him play who let himself be plaid with, we’d be all successful like him. (sarc off)

Yes, and then some. There’s only one Michael Jackson and liberal life is never like it. Obama is behaving like a winner of the lottery.

In that liberal lottery where votes are counted by criminals, it seems that they are ready to admit now to rigging it all in the name of self-defense, when it is the very game they wanted in the first place. Darwinism and gambling look alike by the day. Interesting they call capitalists a bunch of market gamblers when they are the ones shaping the rules to enrich themselves with such strange games devoid of reality.

Only one puppet can utter the claim “I won”, and the rest accept death, thinking they too will get a chance. Ah! This is Union idiot mentality for you.

Sure, “don’t we dare look at neighborhoods of dysfunction threatening good ones.”

I have a message for these “offended types”. Pull me on a threat like that and it’s on. Don’t criticize? MAke me not criticize, and then some. There are cog wheels and “media sports” at work over which none have any control. Let us see how proud they will be tonight when those grind their souls and bodies.

Lest we forget, Alinski too is who got them to their delusion of the days, and their true inheritence will be its true misery. Tending the other cheek and giving them some more of Alinski should help indeed. They all really are fighting over meaningless crumbs of a now shrinking economy, Obama himself and Alinski included.

Let us let them further explain to us where they went wrong, walking along with them in this. God does not have to explain, our “masters” and wannabe masters, if they are such, should do the job. Their incessant whinings and suits and persecutions are the first stages to so encourage.

We are the sheep and hopefully we won’t be too entertained, even though the Michael Jacksonites and Obamites seem to strangely revel in such shows. Who knows.
