LOL Chicago politics at its best(worst). I tell ya, the term Chicago style-politics is no fairy tale. And oh how fitting that Obama hails from there, politically. And more importantly, how fitting would it have been for the Obama Presidential Library to be funded by the tax payer.
LOL You just cant make this stuff up.
I say, let every damn liberal hack who still supports Obama give their "hard earned" money to this cause. Hell, force it from their hands. Take it from them to build this thing.
I see we have to useless posts by two Obamanites. Im sure you two will gladly donate or cheerfully have money forced from your hands for The One's library.
Sounds like the portion of the state legislature that voted to spend $100,000 the state did not get the memo. The Presidential Libraries Act of 1986 mandates private endowments be used to build such libraries/ museums and federal dollars to maintain it, forever.
The fed spends $75 million a year maintaining the 13 existing presidential libraries.

This one I am not so sure about, I remember reading not that long ago that the Bush Library in Texas was paid by private endowments and maintained by Texas tax dollars, though I am not sure if that library also gets federal dollars to maintain it.

I, for one, am ashamed of today's crop of Illinois Democrats - 5 warm bodies should have at least produced a 10-0 vote.
