I thought that Obe had his IL Senate district boundaries moved to have less of the ‘hood and more of the rich folks closer to downtown Chicago. It’ll be the people-with-money’s house, just with more ‘rats.

Let’s start a pool to see how much more theft from the White House will occur with Obama than occurred under the Clintons.

It will end up like "People's Park" in Berkeley, which was taken over by homeless bums.

“Yesterday, the crowd was polite to Sen. John McCain here at the National Urban League Conference. But, today, for Sen. Obama, it’s more of a love fest!” reported one excited CBS Radio newsman”

I wonder if he had a tingling feeling running up and down his leg...

Andrew Jackson hosted the last ‘Open House’ at the White House.

Is that like the People's Republic of China?

Yes, and we’ll be paying through the nose for our ‘house’ with higher taxes.

No it wasn’t; Billy Beer tasted like, er, well can’t post it. Wouldn’t be nice.

When I was a young lad(25), my boss told me to have lunch with Jimmy Carter. He wanted her support, but at that time(1975) she really didn’t like him.

So, I went to lunch with Mr. Carter.

When I returned to the office, the boss asked me what I thought of Carter. My answer: “He’s arrogant and he has no sense of humor.”

Sound familiar? You betcha.

... the 47 million people who don’t have health care...

That is a lie, but what else is new? Everyone who lives near a doctor, hospital, or clinic has "access to health care". What they may not have is insurance, and that is not the same thing. Many younger people choose to self-insure, or or between jobs and (might I add) there is the small matter of illegal aliens...

Obama said... in his administration, the White House would be the "People's" House."

Except for those Typical White "People"

That’s the first thing I thought when I read that phrase, “The People’s”. That’s a ubiquitous slogan of communism (ie, “The People’s Republic Of China”). Barry and Mishrill also don’t want to live in anything called “white”, even though it’s part of that American tradition that he was just spouting off about us needing to return to.

Remember People's Express? The airline that made Newark, New Jersey "middle America"?

I still have a can of Billy Beer up on the shelf in my office.

Now I'm not willing to test this theory, but I suspect it tastes precisely the same now as it did back in 1977.
