Paul Begala refers to Rep. Rahm Emanuel’s style as a “cross between a hemorrhoid and a toothache.” His stint as chairman of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee has been notable for his clashes with DNC Chairman Howard Dean over strategy, resources, and the direction of the party.

A former aide to President Clinton, he was known as “Rahm-bo” among friend and foe alike. Schooled in the rough and tumble of Chicago politics, he was a senior adviser to Richard Daley’s successful 1989 mayoral bid

Friends and enemies agree that the key to Emanuel’s success is his legendary intensity.

There’s the story about the time he sent a rotting fish to a pollster who had angered him.

the night after Clinton was elected, Emanuel was so angry at the president’s enemies that he stood up at a celebratory dinner with colleagues from the campaign, grabbed a steak knife and began rattling off a list of betrayers, shouting “Dead! … Dead! … Dead!” and plunging the knife into the table after every name. “When he was done, the table looked like a lunar landscape,” one campaign veteran recalls. “It was like something out of The Godfather. But that’s Rahm for you.”

I hope so. The GOP needs to either fight, for once, or die, forever.

Obama is building a dictatorship. Do not be fooled with his empty rhetoric, they are just words, just speeches. His goal is total dictatorship

We really need to grow some balls.

Dear God - what have we (well not “we” but “they”) do in voting this man in.....this is scaring me absolutely to death!!

I do hope so. The GOP NEEDS to CLEAN its house or be doomed to fade into history.

Rush said today is was a smart move, the Arabs will have to think twice and will be pissed.

Dr. Savage said the move now makes him a Clinton type of politician.

Obama is simply planting the seeds of a future civil war which could distroy this nation.

Rahmbo will go after talk radio hard.

Will the ACLU rise to defend free speech?

Hmmm, what is it about clinton goons and dead fish. Sounds like what Pellicano did when he made his threats. (Still wondering why that debunker of the Jennifer Flowers tape had C-4 in his safe.)

This is fargin’ war.

First, we need to give this guy a nickname, like Rahm the Hammer - that’s the first step in going after this guy ...

[Republic of Texas]

What? You don’t have C-4 in your safe?

[ken21]

if rahmbo killed the pubie party,

then we could build our conservative party.

ok.

[eyedigress]

I understand your sarcasm. Where the heck is the ACLU in Ohio vs Joe the Plumber? Sheesh.

Hey fellow Hoosier, don’t fear for there will be an end to this insanity. Just live past 2016 and maybe we can be proud and mighty again.

Rahm Emanuel was a Freddie Mac board member

Obama is rewarding people who played a part in this Economic Crisis and Recession

Wait til the libs push for DC voting rights and the GOP appeals to the courts, we're going to see another "Blacksteal Day" (apologies to the French)
