AL SHARPTON'S CHICAGO TOWN HALL ERUPTS INTO REVOLT AGAINST MACHINE POLITICS
Breitbart ^ | 21 Dec 2013 | by REBEL PUNDIT

Posted on 12/22/2013 8:11:39 AM PST by US Navy Vet

On Thursday, a town hall meeting hosted by Al Sharpton and the National Action Network to address gun violence exploded into a revolt against “Chicago Machine” politics, Mayor Rahm Emanuel, and the aldermen in City Hall, with panel and audience members calling to vote out their elected officials. One 82-year-old preacher even called for “Tea Party” style meetings in some of Chicago’s south side communities such as Altgeld Gardens and Trumbull Park.

Yep, I’m thinking the same thing.

Good for them. It’s a start, and obviously, they are finally getting frustrated with how and who they vote.

Well it’s a start.

Not much of a start, perhaps - but a start, none the less”

That is encouraging.

Do you think they are awakening to the fact that the Rats are not really there to help them?

I hope they clean house, I hope we all vote to clean house. No more career politicians!

After they lost their respective wars the Nazis and the Confederates were banned from politics and their members were prohibited from serving in office. Considering how much damage they've done to this country, damage far more deep and long lasting than we've ever sustained in any war, we should ban the Republican and Democrat parties and forbid their elected member from participating in politics again.

Yeah... I guess I'm real glad that charlatans like Sharpton don't want to just blame white people for their inherent violence among one another...LOL

Of course, we all know that white-on-black violence occurs mostly in the minds of these "black leaders" who make their living milking racial division.

Tell ya what, Rev'rund Al, I'll promise to stop going down into the ghetto and attacking innocent black people if you'll agree to keep your Mau Maus out of my neighborhood.

A crack in the ice. Especially with the young. They know 30 million Mexicans will kill employment. They also know they’re getting cut out of the system. Concessions at O’Hare or a coffee shop on Navy Pier is an insider game. With the right messages the Republican party can pick up some if the young black vote.

I know a young black man, who lives in Chicago (David Williams, a congressional candidate in the 9th District), and he supports immigration reform. He says that Congress should try to discourage illegal aliens and deport a lot more illegal aliens. Too many people think that “immigration reform” means “reform that helps the law-breakers.”

Sounds like the Tea Party got a little bigger!

When they're ready to dump lying democrats they'd have a nice home with the Tea Party...

They've been hearing from the communists of Hyde Park for years... they might be less susceptible to that than you might think.

Not to worry as soon as the plantation owners offer up something to the extortionist it will go away and they will be friends again
