Huh! Rahm must not believe in term limits. I do. For BO, I figure about one fifth of one term should be enough. Hey, kid, quit while your adoring worshipers will still let you out of town without feathers.
Just goes to show: you can take the organizer out of Chicago but you can’t take Chicago out of the organizer.
In Chicago politics everything is Pay for Play.
And so it goes for the White House where Rhambo plays a very hardball game of retribution for those who don’t pay.
Demonrats are jumping overboard from all decks of the USS obambi. They have been seriously embarrassed by obambi and now on an International Stage!
They are tired of his lies, his cowardly ways, his ego.
Could a Third Party be forming in the Senate. One composed of Senators who are against NAFTA, Illegal Immigration, Unsecured Borders, Insane Spending, Insane Obamacare, Retreat from Terrorists, Disarmament and other issues.
Pulling 15 from the Dems and Repubs would make the Senate a very tough roadblock for obambiism.
Maybe McCain can do something good and lead another type of McCain Mutiny.
Regardless the myriad arguments of whether the POTUS himself should go to Copenhagen to pitch Chicago as the Olympic site for the 2016 games-
Regardless the timing of such a trip when the unemployment rate was being announced as being at a 26 year high of 9.8%-
Regardless the argument that Obama’s time would be better spent focusing on the health care question or the Iranian quandry or the Afghanistan quagmire or the Acorn quid pro quo-
What the F*** genius in our government had the brilliant idea to send Oprah Winfrey, the queen of the sit-on-your-ass crowd, to speak to the over-achievers of the I-O-freaking -C??? COME ON!!! Did no one have the foresight to see what a “dis” this would be? The IOC is made up of FORMER OLYMPIANS!! They stand for everything that the average Oprah watcher avidly avoids! Check ‘em out!

Okay, so I’m on the IOC. I hear that Obama is coming to make a pitch himself. That’s kinda cool but I’m a little leary as to why he thinks he needs to come himself. Maybe it’s that important- cool! Maybe he thinks I’ll be swayed by his star power- not so cool. I was a star myself at one time. But, I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt and hear him out. I hear he’s a really good speaker.
Then....Oprah is coming, too? The reality hits home what’s going on- I’m a “sit-on-my-ass do-nothing that’s easily swamped by stars” to these people! They have no respect for me! They think that I will be so dazzled by them that I’ll just hand them whatever they want. Like a Chicago Housing Project resident would!
F*** THAT!!! Chicago comes in last on my ballot. I don’t give a good freaking f*** what Obama says now. Or his wife. And F*** Oprah! Lemme vote!
I don’t know what Rio is so happy about? This ain’t over yet- the dead vote still hasn’t been counted yet. That’ll surely take Chicago over the top.
Schadenfreude...!
"Sorry, I have to practice my plie's."
Bwahaha!
Delivery for Mr. Emanuel ! A big Flounder would have been nice.

I think he has those tix in the same drawer as the Cubs World Series ones.
