to Chicagoians: What Did Obama do for his constituents in Chi-Town as a Community Organizer? (unemployed, politicians)

[4Horsemen]

What did he actually Do when he ran the southside of Chicago Politics?

as in accomplishments for the community?

[Zippy7fo]

well i think this was addressed 3 years ago...but I believe he helped unemployed steel/mfg workers find jobs or get local assistance...I think he helped street gangs stop the violence....etc etc...

The same things he is doing for us as President, Nothing.

He brought Hope and Change.

Chicago used to be rife with old style, big city machine corruption.

Now it's a political model for all cities, no wait, all states, wait a minute, the entire nation to emulate.

Let's ask what Bush did for the country, shall we?

Oh, excuse me, this is just another silly I hate Obama thread by an obvious sore loser.

You're excused, Auntie.

Anyway, Bush started irresponsibly running up the debt like a drunken sailor with tax funded giveaways.

Prescription plan, corporate bailouts, billions to Africa, war.....

Obama is running up even more debt, on steroids.

I'm just as unhappy as you about the whole thing as that's a huge steaming bowl of NFG.

Some Change, eh?

He was "present".
This is what is so amazing about his rise to the most powerful position in the free world!
At best he was a less than mediocre politician, a small square peg trying to fit into a round hole.
Clout-wise there are more powerful Chicago Black politicians who have jobs and favors to dish out. Someone in the State Legislature is usually beholden to one of these powerful politician but has no real power himself.
So what made Barrack special?
He was tied into that Chicago Black-Marxist power structure led by Valerie Jarrett.
Jarrett has everybody who's who in Chicago on her speed dial.
No Valerie Jarrett and Barrack Obama would never have happened!

America! You saw the writing on the wall.
How could you have been so STUPID!?

[bigchuckie]

He probably passed out smokes and thunderbird on election day

That would be 15 months and were still suffering from that puke.
