Change - Chicago Style

Body count In the last six months

- Chicago - 292 killed (murdered)
- Iraq - 221

Chicago is a combat zone. Who is in charge?
(The leadership in Illinois)
- Senator Barack Obama (Democrat)
- Senator Dick Durbin (Democrat)
- Representative Jesse Jackson Jr. (Democrat)
- Governor Rod Blogojevich (Democrat)
- House leader Mike Madigan (Democrat)
- Attorney Genera Lisa Madigan (daughter of Mike), (Democrat)

- Mayor Richard M. Daley (son of former Mayor Richard J. Daley)
(Democrat)

Of course they're all blaming each other. Why?

They can't blame Republicans, there aren't any!

State pension fund $44 Billion in debt, worst in country.

Cook County (Chicago) Sales tax 10.25% highest in country. (Look it
up if you want).

Chicago school system one of the worst in country.

This is the political culture that Obama comes from in Illinois. And
he says he is going to 'fix' Washington politics?

hno:

What the hell are you guys talking about?

<H5>Kwame Obama: hey, it's only ten felony charges!

</H5>
Barack Obama just breathed a sigh of relief.

A judge ruled that his good friend Detroit Mayor (and Democratic superdelegate) Kwame Kilpatrick could not attend the Democratic National Convention.

Just a few months ago, Barack Obama vocally endorsed Kilpatrick, embracing the mayor and stating that he had done "an outstanding job" and brought about a "renaissance" in Detroit.

"He is a leader not just in Detroit, not just in Michigan, but all across the country people look to him... we know he'll be doing astounding things in the years to come."

Astounding, alright. Ten felony charges including perjury, obstruction of justice, misconduct of office, and two counts of assaulting police officers.

As Jim Geraghty observed, "When video of Obama embracing Kilpatrick is playing, suddenly McCain's embrace of Bush doesn't look so bad anymore, huh?"

And since Democrats like to call the maverick McBush, I think it's fair to call the Democratic candidate Kwame Obama.
