It's true.

By Obama's standards, Emanuel is dirty enough, leftist-Socialist enough, and knowledgeable enough about Chicago gangster politics to be "a terrific Chicago mayor."

Bill Ayers is probably already fund-raising and twisting arms for his buddy Rahm.

Riiiight, he's a Saul Alinsky quoting "centrist"....and the crazy far left considers Obama to be a "centrist", too.
Hahaha!

P.S. As your petulant "name" suggests, McCarthy's tactics were wrong and he definitely wasn't personally admirable. I won't even argue very much against him (ironically) being called "scum" by folks like you...but he WAS right. The end result of Americans looking the other way for too long after his over the top behavior is our current Socialist President and a Socialist Democrat Party.

But, apparently, we're about to begin fixing that.

Didn't he mean "terrifying?" I'd sure be worried if I were living in Chicago right now. Who wants Zionist Rahmbo as their mayor?

Nobody, that's who...

Hahaha!
Only the far Right would consider Alinsky a "Marxist" or Obama and Emanuel anything but slightly-left-of-centrists. Your perspective is so skewed you actually think moderate Dems are "radicals!"

Amazing. And disturbing.

Moderates? Hahaha! Considering your well known far left views, your post makes for pretty good comedy.

You and I have had the Alinsky debate already, and I proved with his own quotes that Alinsky was Marxist. But typical of radical leftists you just come back and repeat the same "we're all just a bunch of nice Centrists" lies. That's EXACTLY what Alinsky taught in his book "Rules For Radicals."

I shudder to think of him as Mayor.

Yeah, read Rahm's book: THE PLAN

http://www.readtheplan.com/about.htm

Rahm's a foreign nationalist. Everything for Israel. Rahm left the USA and SERVED in the Israeli army (Gulf War I) and has NEVER served in the USA military, NEVER! But he has no problem sending our soldiers into the Middle East to fight for Israel, while Israel sends NO SOLDIERS to fight BESIDE our brethen. Rahm needs to go and take his brother with him.

Liar, I proved just the opposite about Alinsky but you rejected it because it didn't fit your radical-right agenda.

Alinsky wasn't a "centrist," nor have I said he was. But Obama and the Clintons are.

Maybe these facts will shake you out of your complacent lying? I doubt it, but it's worth a try...

Rahm Emanuel is too analytically bright, but not as emotionally intelligent as tough but fair Mayor Daly of Chicago.
I would rather see him stay where he is, and perhaps after 2016 become a Senator, UN Ambassador or Secretary of the Treasury!! Some public servants I think, work best organizing/strategizing behind the scene! To be Mayor of Chicago, you have to be up-front confrontational melding Unions, Police, and a long list of Daly family dynasty antecedent connections! It really should be up to Mayor Daly, to make his choice as successor.
F.M.
