The Barack Obama expressway?
Only left lanes; thousands of unfilled potholes; never moves anywhere; takes you where you don’t want to go.
Pelosi will remark: “You have to get on it to find out where you’re going.”
Rename the Chicago Skyway and increase the tolls on it for anyone exiting into or entering from the adjacent ‘hoods. Rub it in those peoples faces who live near it and are worse off than they were before him but thought he would pay for all their rent and gas.
What about the Chicago Skyway?
It’s perfect metaphorically - it’s grandiose, nobody in Chicago really wants or uses it, it fleeces the unsuspecting and, most of all, it’s bloody expensive.
Will the road lead to a dead end? It should.
He’s a star of the Hershey Highway.
‘Rep. Robert Martwick, D-Chicago’
‘Rep. La Shawn Ford, D-Chicago’
How is it not racist for ‘Robert’ to challenge ‘La Shawn’ on this? As soon as La Shawn weighed in, Robert should have yielded. Isn’t that what Barack would have wanted?
“Now, I don’t care who you are that’s funny!”
Larry,TCG
LOL! Thanks.
In Barack’s case, I think they want to name things after him before he’s indicted.
It’s really a two-step process: buy a small town on a highway and change its name to Perdition. Then place the Obama Highway signs on the road leading thereto.
Just make sure it has a WIDE YELLOW stripe down its entire length!
Why thats highway robbery!
That's US Route 66. It's not an interstate.
“President Barack Obama Tollway”
Kind of appropriate that they're making you pay to drive it.
Give him a street next to Martin Luther King Blvd. Think of it as Truth in Advertising.
Didn’t Obama once say something about how Hillary Clinton would know more about Kentucky as her state of Arkansas was closer to it than his Illinois? Perhaps a road going across the IL KY border would be more appropriate.
Any way you slice it, it will end up being in a bad location. I mean if you want to find the absolutely worst place in a city or town, ask for directions to Martin Luther King Boulevard. They should just rename all the streets named MLK to Obola. MLK deserves better than he got in the street naming business.
Illinois, Love it or Leave it...
Totally unneeded - there’s already a street on the South Side that runs from the Calumet River down to the city limits, through neighborhoods devastated by the loss of American heavy industry, next to abandoned brown-fields formerly occupied by Republic Steel, along the edge of Wolf Lake’s less-than-pristine waters.
It’s called Avenue O.
