I’m actually surprised that the REAL design isn’t more Mosque-like!

I feel for the poor taxpayers of Chicago that are in the sight-line of that ‘Lie-barry!’

Ah... Rush. Nobody like him. I bet he’s up there in Heaven watching the ongoing destruction by the left on planet earth with extreme sadness that he can no longer report on it. I know I’m sad about that.

Omygosh! I read the headline without realizing it was The Bee. Good thing I wasn't drinking beer when I saw the pic or I would've spewed it all over my phone.

Of course it's not quite noon here so I haven't switched to beer yet but spewing coffee all over my phone isn't much better.

I used to live in Hyde Park. Parking is miserable. the area was already pretty full up, and there are three better libraries (Harper, Regenstein, Crerar) very nearby. Interestingly, the area was dry for restaurants last I checked. The onky Edwardo’s with no beer. U of C students had to go over to 55th for an Old Style.

O’Bammie’s Presidential Center and Basketball Arena out-uglies even Big Mike.

Think I’m kidding about the basketball arena? Here it is straight from the big Marxist, closeted Muslim himself: https://www.obama.org/stories/home-court-at-the-obama-presidential-center/

When I visited Hyde Park in the summer of 1961, I listened to a speaker from Africa espousing anti-colonialist and pro-communist views.

FReepers told me I may have been listening to Barack Hussein Obama Sr. [!]

I seem to remember a big outcry when they were kicking families out of the area they wanted to use for Bammy’s Lie-Barry.

(Newsweek!) Obama Library: Behind Schedule, Over Budget and Mired in Lawsuits - Published Jan 31, 2025, Updated Mar 09, 2025

https://www.newsweek.com/barack-obama-presidential-center-library-chicago-lawsuit-discrimination-2024316

AP(!) says 4,500 families to be displaced:

“Her sentiments represent a tangled conflict that’s unfolded since Barack Obama announced his $500 million presidential center would be built in Jackson Park, near Lake Michigan and where he started his political career, taught law and got married: Could the legacy library of the nation’s first black president propel the displacement of thousands of low-income black families right in his backyard?”

Hyde Park isn't great, but it is better than Kenwood to the north and Woodlawn to the south. Be ing near Lake Shore Drive and Lake Michigan (including "The Point") is extremely desireable). Also near IC/Metra trains. Nicer and safer than the El. Also near the beloved Museum of Science and Industry.

This is probably (from their point of view) the ONE nice thing these people had. No more.

When our boys were young (pre-teens) we made trips to Chicago on a regular basis for the museums alone. They have some amazing things there. The boys were always, ‘engaged’ and really enjoyed those days, as did we all.

My fave will always be The Shedd Aquarium. Those prehistoric Sturgeons were always creepy, though. Amazingly old - like hundreds of years!

Visited a ‘Monet’ showing at the art museum (forget the name) back in the day. Did NOT take the boys, LOL!
