Republicans gave us George "Pay-for-Your-License " Ryan. Democrats gave us G-Rod the Cuckoo.

No good choices, y'all. Put someone up (either party, doesn't matter) against Richie D who'll push the following legislation through:

1) bill to establish term limits. Only two. Yes, you rabbits: ONLY two.

2) bill to prohibit any firm from getting a public contract, that has contributed $100 or over to any pol. Yes, righteous asphalt road-builders, this means you, too.

3) bill to make family members of currently serving IL pols ineligible for ten years after daddy or uncle or mom leaves office. Ergo, no more Toad Strogers.

I'll vote for 'em if they surface, regardless of party. They'd have to do a better job than we've seen up to now.

And no--no Olympics here. Ever.

I'm done now.

Corruption will be running amock and unstoppable, take this to Rio. Daley and his lackies stole enough tax dollars already. Time to crack the Daley mob and put him in cuffs, then go after the stooger goons.

Why doesn't the Tribune do an online poll asking us if we want the Olympics? Maybe they don't want to know the answer. Counting the days till the election!

This is huge corruption; huger than anything ever before in history. Indeed we (Americans) are now into socialism, with it's ugly government influence over "private" businesses, secular re-education, attack on our families' privacy and war against our religion and Church. However, it is not liar rich Daley's fault. It is our fault. We created, aided, abetted, condoned, encouraged and championed this new era of Government-Media mobocracy, that is Socialism. And with nothing (no republican party or other organization) to stop them, well then Communism is next.
We the Chicagoans can stop Communism. We can even strike back down Socialism which Daley and president Conman have started with their masters Axelrod and Emanuel.
To do this though takes a spine. We have to stand tall.
We have to take advantage of elections at the ballot boxes. To make a long story short, we must vote AGAINST the democrats. On Tuesday, Feb 2nd, 2010, do not take a democrat ballot. Take a REPUBLICAN ballot. Then in November, 2010 , vote against each and every single democrat party member of Daley's Political mafia.
You see, there is a monopoly right now. And Daley's mafia has infiltrated our republican party. High ranking "republican" officials in the Illinois party are fakes, plants and frauds. They work for Daley. The democrats control everything. Now this tragedy is exported to our White House. We are now losing our nation because of Daley's politics, but remember it's not Daley's fault -- it is our fault.
We need a 2- party political system. We need competition. We need a conservative American REPUBLICAN REVOLUTION in Chicago which will reverberate from Chicago to D.C. and back to Springfield.
BOTTOM LINE:
GOVERNMENT WORKERS. We need all government workers to abandon the ANTI-CHRISTIAN & ANTI-AMERICAN politics of Richard M. Daley. We need all government workers to vote against Daley and his slate. Vote Republican. He can not hurt you. That Communist game is over, unless you -- YOU -- continue to encourage Daley and his aparatchiks.
You can vote Republican and keep your jobs. You can vote American and keep your houses and your dignity. We all, government workers and non-government workers must take our nation back. We must take our government back.
Politicians are only reflections of who we are.
VOTE AMERICAN, VOTE CONSERVATIVE, VOTE REPUBLICAN.
Send a message. Take a REPUBLICAN ballot.
Thak you,
Carl Segvich

I hate Daley, I hate the bad things about Chicago, I hate politics, I hate democrats, but I must say these days I hate stupid republicans like yourself who are too f!cking LAZY to look up the word 'socialism' Let me be clear: EVERY moron in this country that throws the term 'socialism' around has NO idea what the f!ck they're talking about. Open a f!cking dictionary at the very least, or at least go read your Marx, although I know that'll never happen as it takes actual work to read and study. Please, just go jump off a cliff and take your friends and foes alike with you.

The politicians expect coporate America and tax payers to pay for an Olympic boonedoggle in Chicago after pimp slapping them for the Fanny and Freddy mess the politicians shanghiaed them into to begin with? The money just isn't there.

The Olympics sites have become to expensive and competitive. They are more circus and media event than a world sporting event. It would be better to establish a permanent Olympic site in Greece. After the first Olympics were held at the facility it remain dormant for four years. However it would be cheaper to pay maintance expenses than constantly spending money on bidding, proposals, enviromental impact studies, publicity, and new constrution contracts.

Go read your Marx? I'm sure you do, it's what fuels your hate, buzzard breath. Marx was a self loathing anal hole. His idea of peace is when there is no opposition to socialism. And, that translates into the elimination life, liberty and the pursuit of happyness, the United States Republic and Constitution. Only a socialist is obsessed with the term hate. The only time commies are happy is when they are trying to eliminate freedom. By the way, punk, I'v been around longer than you and I do know what I'm talking about. If you want to read about real men read who stood for the individual and a better life why don't you put in a little effort and read, Jefferson, Madison, Monroe and Washington.

If Daley wants to run for another term, you will vote for him!
If Daley wants to continue screwing over the boaters, he will.
If Daley wants to devastate the lakefront, he will.
Don't look too closely at the funding.
If you question, if you rock the boat,there will be consequences.

Chicago does not need the Olympics! I've been working on the southside and when you drive thru Marquette Park and see every block had 2-3 boarded up houses and another 1-2 not boared up but the snow on the front steps hasn't seen a single footprint, we are in trouble.
Daley and his band of 50 alderMorons has sold off everything in a short sighted attempt to fix a very broken budget. How can a city that cannot run a park district program for all its children now want to run a professional Olympics? Daley is working on his legacy at the citizen of Chicago expense. IT IS TIME FOR HIM TO GO!!!!!
That's because Daley and the alderman are not running the Olympic Bid. Professionals who have done it before are!
