Rahm Emauel left the Administration and was placed in Chicago to become Mayor, AND to oversee the national HQ of the Obama campaign, to ensure the Chicago political machine would stay well-oiled, and minimize challenges that would threaten Obama’s carrying Illinois again.SO, to see Emanuel functioning now as a Representative, a Proxy and a remote Surrogate to the Administration’s gun policy is no surprise.
What is surprising is that he was tasked with this level of overreaching, but I guess they think he can get away with it because he’s (technically)not part of the Administration, and thinks he can afford this kind of aggressive strong-arming as the Mayor of a “major” Metropolis.
Yes....I told “friends” (who voted for the “O” the first time) right after the election that I hoped they liked having the mafia in the Whitehouse.....
