by the way DOD stands to lose a lota money when obama gets in - expect nasty stuff the next 3 weeks.

...Except that Congress' Democrats are more Conservative, not far Left. This has shown repeatedly since the 2006 elections when the Democrats took the majority. As broken as the Democratic party usually is on general policy, I don't see them working hand in hand on a daily basis.
Leadership in Illinois are ALL Democrats.
Sens. Barack Obama & Dick Durbin,
Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr.,
Gov. Rod Blogojevich,
House leader Mike Madigan,
Atty. Gen. Lisa Madigan (daughter of Mike),
Mayor Richard M. Daley (son of Mayor Richard J. Daley)

Illinois Really is More Corrupt (http://www.cebcglobal.org/Newsroom/News/News_031107.htm - broken link)
Chicago must be a symptom of 8 years of the Bush Administration, which resulted in:
Less personal freedoms
Higher National Debt
Worse schools
Dirtier Air + Water and a weakening of the entire Superfund program
Incredible amounts of corruption in the justice system:
I'm soooo sick of hearing this. I wasn't against the war and the current crisis is the dems fault. My husband and I have both doubled our salaries in the last eight years and that's pretty much the story for all our repub friends and their friends and so on...that you people like to be miserable is your problem.
Stop listening to the media and maybe you'll start to feel grateful that you live in the greatest country in the world.
BO scares the hell out of us.
I have a friend who is a die hard Democrat and is always complaining about the last 8 years. This same person owns a buisness that 8 years ago had 7 employees. I asked him the other day when he was whining about Bush how many people work for him now. His answer, 31. Looks like the last 8 years really sucked for him. It's just a Democrat thing, if there party is not in charge they whine.
It means actual progress instead of working backwards.
You're right! Progress as in more money for those that don't earn it, Progressing towards a nanny state, Progressing towards an open border anything goes government, yep there's progress for ya!
No. I wanted to know what about the past 8 years the OP would not want changed.
I apologize.. too bad W can't run for 4 more years. I only vote for him once though.. 2000
It's OK. It gave me a chance to say what I wanted to say

Are they hiring? I lost my job and despite having 2 graduate degrees from good unis (one Ivy) its tough finding a job. And investments are way down. ITs not just Joe the Plumber having trouble finding work. A friend of mine who made >200k in NY is happy to take a job making 75k..
If Obama gets elected, we will become a welfare state. Check the WSJ article and what will happen if dumbo gets elected, it's frightening....
We may never recover. what is wrong with the ignorant people who want obama the socialists..

Chicago is a symptom and result of CORRUPT politicians resulting in Obama's METEORIC rise to fame because of his shady ties.
The BUSH Administration has nothing to do with Chicago. BARACK OBAMA represents ILLINOIS and is the U.S. Senator of Illinois and for Chicago. And OBAMA has done nothing relevant to improve Chicago. If he cared about his hometown Chicago, IL then he should have run for mayor of Chicago. But obviously he is looking for the ultimate power and wants to become the most powerful leader in the world and control the money of the corporations and the rich.
Of course, Chicago is looking forward to that money.
