1) As a community organizer in Chicago, Barack Obama didn't accomplish much.
Do any community organizers ever accomplish much?
2) ... the trails left behind by community organizers are so often littered with good intentions and failed plans.
3) Some community organizations that start out lean and mean become bloated with bureaucracy.
4) Other groups seem to exist only to perpetuate themselves.
5) Too often, the nonprofits that foot the bill for many community organizations act as if their responsibility ends at writing the checks, instead of following up and assessing the effectiveness of their investments.
How can they provide answers to their own question and still be so clueless. Once again it is not the actual results that matter, but the intentions.
Well I suppose we are sneering because it is the “Messiah” himself that holds this “job” out as proof he has experience enough to be the president of this country.
No kidding -- the whole thing is a scam!
Because the sanctimonious, hate-filled Dems and media (but I repeat myself) sneer at Gov. Palin's executive experience as a small-town mayor.
How does it taste, liberals?
As one wag asked, what are we supposed to do... see the slums of Chicago's South side, marvel at how well organized they are, and exclaim, "Wow! Barack Obama did that?!?!?" |
I also wonder why we don’t see people who have benefitted from Obama’s community organizing lined up to tell us of his wonderful accomplishments.
Or any accomplishments, for that matter.
> Why is GOP sneering at Obama’s work as community organizer?
Because “community organizer” is a euphemism for using grant money to advance the Marxist cause.
Here’s a question for the questioner.
How did a “community organizer” and part-time “guest lecturer” at a state university compile a multi-million dollar portfolio, complete with a million-dollar mansion in one of the nation’s most upscale neighborhoods?
Obama wasn’t exactly a ball of fire as a community organizer.
Dummies don’t even know it was in reply to his sneering at her being the mayor of “Wasilly”.
Only because it has been touted as experience relative to his alleged readines to be seated in the Oval Office.
Therefore, the ever solicitous MSM seeks here to help him out where he needs it most.
There’s nothing wrong with being a community organizer, but it doesn’t qualify someone to be President.
Communities should take care of their own and not depend on big government to do the job. .......So we get ACORN to put the “correct people” in government to have big government do it anyways.
We’re sneering because it is nothing special. Half the people on this site have been “community organizers”, coaching Little league or doing fundraisers or volunteering at school or churches. Big deal.
Obama was a “community organizer,” Sarah was a very active PTA member. Pretty much the same thing.
In law we call what the dems did “opening the door” to this line of questioning. The dems were going wild attacking Palin’s qualifications. That resulted in a counterattack on Obama’s qualifications, or lack thereof.
Instead, he spent a few years of his life working with the poorest and most powerless people on the South Side of Chicago, doing his damndest to help them help themselves.
It's called "...getting street creds" Mr. Editor. Nothing more than a stepping stone to future self aggrandizement.
In Zerobama’s case, “community organizer” is a euphemism for communist activist, working for the communist front organization, ACORN.
If someone paid by an outside source came into my home and tried to “organize me” I would hate it. I’d feel patronized and controlled by a force that surely had its own interests at heart. He was PAID by an OUTSIDE SOURCE to go in and “help people.”
The actual SNEER was from the OBAMA camp about Palin being a small town mayor. She responded to this SNEER with good humor backed by a good point!
THE PRESS SHOULD SHOVE THIS REVISIONIST HISTORY UP THEIR *$**#& ASS! I AM SO BEYOND SICK OF THIS *#*&#!
What is the importance of the ACORN angle? ACORN is the most corrupt, most convicted, "public service" organization in the history of the United States. Just Google ACORN together with "vote fraud" and you'll see the story.
This Chicago reporter is deliberately tap-dancing around this critical issue.
