   So, whose brilliant idea was it to have him create a media logjam and block commuters trying to get to work?

   It was either that or try to catch them earlier in the shower.

   In the video, Emanuel said he’s embarking on a “Tell It Like It Is” listening tour of Chicago.

   It’s a “Telling Tour” then.

   Did Im read this right, Emanuel was handing out free tickets to a movie, starring him, called “LogJammin.”

   Be careful what you ask for, Rahm.

   It would be a pleasant surprise if Chicago voters rejected ole-soap-on-a-rope-dope. Good for Chicago, good for the country, and good riddance to a supreme jerk.

   a “Tell It Like It Is” listening tour

   Given the modus operandi of Dems, the ones doing the listening will be those in the audience and the one doing the telling will be Rahmbo.

   Rahm has no intention of winning THIS election. The next mayor of Chicago is doomed to failure – Rahm is still young, he’ll be building his team for the next run.

    Yes and no. He wanted out of the Obrainless team because he can see the writing on the wall. But…he doesn’t want any help from the big cheese because then his campaign will just smell like limburger. However, if he loses, it’s a blight against The One. This could be kind of poetic justice.

    These jerks are so arrogant they believe nothing can stop them.

    I heard this morning on the radio that Rahm isn’t answering any questions at these logjams and doesn’t plan to answer any questions for at least a week.

    So, there’s not much “telling it like it is” at the moment, just pointless photo-ops.

    You’re missing the headline here Michelle. “How are ya? Nice to see ya. Have a good day. Go ‘head, don’t worry ’bout it. How are ya. Have a good day now. Nice to see ya.”

    Emanuel Expresses Intense Concern for Wellbeing of Chicagoans

    Emanuel Dispels Commuter Anxieties

    Return of Rahm Brings A Good Day For Chicago!
    Emanuel in Hebrew means “God with us”. God help us.

    He is more qualified to be Mayor of Chicago than his boss was to become President of the United States. Far more qualified.

    From Hillbuzz:

    This is actually going to be a lot of fun, folks, because Rahm Emanuel thinks he is beloved in Chicago and the city is just going to hand him the Mayor’s office after all the people he’s stepped on, screamed at, belittled, and terrorized through the years.

    We have an inside source in his nascent campaign who describes the attitude of the staff Emanuel already has as “delusional”.

    We also happen to know people working on some of the other Mayoral campaigns, so we’re going to get a lot of inside scoop on all of this…and will try to go to as many of Emanuel’s events as possible to report live from the ground on how crazy he is, and how stupid the national media is for declaring Emanuel to be the next Mayor.

    Chicagoans don’t like or want him.

    His abrasive, toxic, and emotionally unbalanced personality is not what this city needs. And people know that.

    We’ve had a benign-tyrant in the Mayor’s office for 21 years, with one family controlling Chicago for all but 15 of the last 60-some years. The last thing people are going to want is another dictator — least of all one whose mouth is so filthy there isn’t enough soap in all of Illinois to wash it out.

    After the November elections are over, we’d like all of you nationally to commit to helping us thwart Rahm Emanuel’s Mayoral ambitions.

    Though, honestly, he’s pretty much going to do that himself, just by being Rahm Emanuel.

    I probably should have included this in the quote above:

    It’s going to get really fun, though…especially since the Mayoral election is February 22nd…and the Blagojevich trial begins again in January…and if Blago is the Blago we all know and love, this time he’s going to call Emanuel to the stand…so there’s a very real possibility that Emanuel could be a material witness in a corruption trial asked about his own dirty dealings while trying to become Mayor of Chicago.

    How fun will THAT be to watch?

    it’s a good move. He spends an hour and gets face time and makes something newsworthy. He wants people to know he’s in Chicago. He will buy advertising there, but this will be on all the media for free proclaiming Rahm comes home!

    if he gets residency, he’ll win.

    Those guys at Hillbuzz really hate Obama. Which is strange because I thought Hillbuzz was mostly gay men. You’d think they would be getting weak-kneed at the site of Obama’s manly pecs, but I guess you have to work at The Ministry of Propaganda before that happens.

    The people of Chicago seem to like having thieves and other types of crooks in public office - seems that’s all that they vote for. Since Rahm is kind of an effeminate thug/crook/liar, he is the perfect mayor for them.

    The report by geographer Dr. Andrew Schiller for the commercial real estate site NeighborhoodScout.com said a neighborhood identified as “W. Lake St.,” located on the Near West Side and bounded by Kinzie Street on the north, Washington Boulevard on the south, Damen Avenue on the east and Western Avenue on the west, is the most dangerous neighborhood in the country.

    The report claims that the chances of being a victim of a violent crime in the neighborhood are 1 in 4. It says the neighborhood sees 257.72 crimes per 1,000 residents

    I think it is hilarious when these big media locations like Chicago talk about how dangerous their areas are. Chicago talks about ‘south side’, LA talks about Compton, NY talks about Brooklyn or the Bronx.

    I assure you I’ll put the bad areas in Durham, Greensboro, High Point (especially), Winston Salem up against any of them.

    The South Side/Compton “kings” would be shivering in fear within 24 hours here. I used to be impressed and scared of the scary places the big media talked about. . . until I went there. There is nowhere scarier than the bad parts of NC. But here if we talk about ‘scary places’ they just call us racist.

    Not funny. Rahm the hit man in Chicago. Tell that to all the business people shaken down by the mob.

    In the video, Emanuel said he’s embarking on a “Tell It Like It Is” listening tour of Chicago.

    Too funny, a tell it like it is listening tour. Are you telling or are you listening? Those are mutually exclusive. Is that an oxymoron or just a moron?

    I believe the rats are jumping ship so as to make it much harder when the Congressional investigations start next year.

    When they are no longer a part of the establishment, any investigation might have to resort to subpoena…and the left would paint Republicans as harassing private citizens just trying to live life and care for puppies.
