Rahm is lacking part of a finger and for many years went around claiming that he’d lost it in actions against the enemy in a tank.

Course, if Rahm fought in the military of foreign government, that would negate his American citizenship (US citizens forfeit their citizenship when they serve in the military of a foreign government).

Ha Ha ! for Obama's campaign they went with this story;" Profile: Rahm Emanuel, Barack Obama's new enforcer 

"Whilst working part-time in a fast-food restaurant, Mr Emanuel badly cut the middle finger of his right hand in a meat-slicing machine. The wound became badly infected and as he lay in hospital with a dangerously high temperature his parents were warned that antibiotics might not be enough to save him from blood poisoning. He survived after the top half of his finger was amputated." ~ http://www.telegraph.co.uk/

Ok, I get your drift. I don’t agree that Onada has been successful in critical areas—defined as where he has spent most of his time. To wit: Tax and Cap. Killed in Copenhagen. Onadacare. I don’t think the votes are there. Demrat pols are running for the hills.

As you put it, the things he’s done, he’s had to do them to stem the tide of defecting support. I would not qualify them as successes since they fly in the face of what he really believes and wants.

IMHO this usurper Onada’s time has come and gone. It only remains to be seen, when the time comes, if he and his bunch of angry commies go quietly.

That aside, it will be interesting to see where Emanual ends up. I’d put odds on one of the TV networks. Remember, that’s where the arrogant ideologue from the Clintoon administration found a home. Greek name beginning with an “S”. Can’t remember it right now.

Stephanapolous.

I think we'll likely see Emmanuel as a lobbyist for some liberal cause. He was previously on the Board of Directors for Fannie Mae. Maybe he'll end up with GE.

I don't think we'll see him as mayor. I think that's just going to be his excuse to leave. Have a feeling he will not run.

Chicago deserves this little leftist ballerina and vice-versa. Sort of like an enema needs an asshole - a mutual relationship.

In other words, both are full of crap - commies, crooks, and crazies, just like the White House

THe Haganah did NOT blow up the King David Hotel in British Palestine. It was the Irgun and possibly the Stern Gang.

We have a discussion on this very issue at Phyllis Chesler’s site in her recent column on terrorism. See Max Friedman and Momma Mia for their historical comments on this bombing.

PS: THe British got at least one, and possibly three warnings to evacuate the hotel which was a British Command Center and prison.

Nope. The next Daley in that office will be Patrick.

Who to believe? Last I heard he was planning to run for Obambi’s senate seat in Chicago once Burris steps down?

I think that Obambi should “reward” Rahm and appoint him Ambassador to East S###istan

I don't think Obama is going to dump Rahm. I think it is another rat leaving a sinking ship.

John Mclaughlin (of The Mclaughlin Group) predicted on his TV show that Rahm was slinking off into the sunset ...

*** Rahm may have bigger fish to fry than going back to Chicago. ***

Exactly. Being Mayor would be a step down for him.

You have to wonder why the mayoral rumors are surfacing.

Oh heck, probably one of Rahm's hidden agendas---connected to his remaking US foreign policy in his image (/snix).

Just sit back and observe the cockeyed world of Rahm-a-bama.

Come on down! No state income tax is neat.

We would love to have you in my “racist” town of Farmers Branch.

When is the deadline to file? It has passed here in Texas. But we have a March 02 Primary.
