Wonder how many of those “ret@rded liberals” are going to bother voting for him?

Rahm Emanuel is an Israeli citizen... he should run for mayor of Tel Aviv.
Rahm was Mossad/Israel’s spy during Bill Clinton’s administration and no doubt in Obama’s too.
So don’t be too surprised if he wins in Chicago. Mossad/AIPAC’s “voting machines gadgets” are scattered all over the US during election times.

Talk about failing upward. The Sammy Glick of modern US politics—much like George W. Bush—turns everything he touches into shit. The Billary healthcare bill, the ‘94 midterms, the 2010 midterms, failing to get through almost all of Uncle O’s appointments etc etc. And as my colleagues have pointed out, we all knew we were had when this dirty fixer was Obama’s first appointment.
Barack Obama makes Vidkun Quisling seem like a stand-up guy.

I’m interested in who is financing his campaign.
AIPAC comes to mind.

Rahm Emanuel is scum. The fact that Ho’Bama appointed him was one of the first signs that Ho’Bama was a fraud. It took us too long to see it.

At least they won’t be able to say they didn’t know when he is up to his dirty tricks.

Big B:
That’s almost what I thought when I saw that picture! Except I threw in the effing word in front of the “smug”.
What a hairball! And I should know.

If the mayor gig doesn’t work out he can always go back to investment banking and make a dozen million or so trading off his government contacts. Ain’t plutocracy grand?

I suppose it’s possible, even likely, that the majority of Chicagoans will elect a back alley thug and piece of utter human trash like Emanuel to be the mayor. Weren’t the Republicans just given control of the House of Representatives?
