Left, Right & Center

Rahm Emanuel steps down as chief of staff; now he wants to run for mayor of Chicago. Is this a shakeup or just normal job burnout? Is the White House in flux? With the House voting to impose import tariffs on China, will the Senate bring the issue to a vote? In this week’s edition of “Left, Right & Center,” we also have a glance at the midterms, the tea party and the Whitman-Brown face-off in California. —KA

Rahm Emanuel might do some pinch hitting in the Congressional campaigns since he played a major role in the DCCC when Democrats won back the House. Has anyone explored this idea? Seems like a possible reason why he’s leaving now.

Good riddance that a Zionist Mossad agent is physically removed from daily running of the White (Black)House and its dirty politics! One good aspect of this is that I can now breath a little easier till we know who will replace him.

But the news that this Zionist animal, with double loyalties to two evil political establishments, moving to Chicago to become its mayor, is unsettling to me, since I was planning to retire there in two or three more years.

Well, I guess I can always shift gears and retire to a third world country where life is simpler and more affordable and one does not need to be forced to put up, on daily basis, with all the evil of the political-military establishment and its misguided MSM of a rapidly declining entity, moving constantly backward to rival the traditionally so-called third world countries!
