Should the U.S. pull out of Chicago?
Vanity

Should the U.S. pull out of Chicago?

Body count: In the last six months, 292 killed (murdered) in Chicago compared to 221 killed in Iraq, and Chicago has one of the strictest gun laws in the entire US! President: Barack Hussein Obama Senator: Dick Durbin House Representative: Jesse Jackson Jr. Governor: Pat Quinn House leader: Mike Madigan Attorney General Lisa Madigan ( daughter of Mike ) Mayor: Rahm Emanuel ALL DEMOCRATS

Thank you, Mr. President, for the combat zone in Chicago.

Of course, they're blaming each other!

Can't blame Republicans; there aren't any!

The Chicago school system rated one of the worst in the country!

Can't blame Republicans; there aren't any!

State pension fund $78 Billion in debt, the worst in the country!

Can't blame Republicans; there aren't any!

Cook County ( Chicago ) sales tax 10.25%, highest in the country!

Can't blame Republicans; there aren't any!

This is the political culture that Obama comes from in Illinois ..

And he is going to “fix” Washington politics for us???

George Ryan is no longer governor, he's in prison! Of course, he was replaced by Rob Blajegovitch who is...that's right, also in prison! And Representative Jesse Jackson Jr. resigned a couple of weeks ago. That’s because he is fighting being sent to…right again, prison!

The Land of Lincoln , where governors make the license plates!!!

“Is this where our country heading?”

I hope so because this would logically mean that Obama is eventually going to go to prison!

Actually, this raises a good point.

Democrats have had a hammer-lock control on Chicago for decades. Chicago has some of the strictest gun control laws in the country, so what give Democrats — any Democrat — the right to pontificate that we should follow their lead into gun control oblivion?

Demonstrate that Democrats can fix Chicago and then I'll listen to your fantasy hokum about how your taking away my right will make anyone safer!

It’s bad to kill people with Republican bullets, but it’s OK to kill people with Democrat bullets.....even here in the US.

Chicago is reaping the whirlwind from decades of one party rule and thugocracy. Obama’s Marxism fits well with this kind of governance.

:) I pray for it everyday. The country needs to be destroyed in order for us to properly build it again.

Democrat bullets are shot with brotherly love. They don't even hurt. :)

I’d be willing to bet my next Soc Sec deposit that within the next 4 years, Illinois (and California and NY) will get federal guarantees for their state bonds to help their stunningly underfunded pensions.

Now I realize that guarantee is nothing more than Baraqqi/Bernanke/Geithner/Lew minibucks, but it will happen.
With that base of electoral votes locked, the Dems are golden forever.

One would think the recent experiences of Chicago’s sister city of misery, Detroit would’ve served as a cautionary tale about the fruits of corrupt, crony politics.

The societal decay that is consuming ever greater parts of Chicago is stunning. But ask any democrat and they’ll do their damndest to convince you it’s all on the rebound.

"Chicago is reaping the whirlwind from decades of one party rule and thugocracy. Obama’s Marxism fits well with this kind of governance."

More to the point.
Chicago is suffering from a misplaced admiration of the "Gangster Folklore".
Every Piss-Ant Punk wants to be the next Al Capone.
Maybe we should bring back the Charles Bronson type movies and glorify the “Citizen Enforcer”.

There are three words to negate the problem of excessive damage when using "Nuclear Weapons".
And they are...

Chicago sits astride the traderoutes of the continent and it continues to be a great manufacturing center.

The problem consists of having too many bad people.
