We're America too. Does Mitt Romney not want us? Obviously he's gotta do what he's gotta do in terms of messaging, but I just think singling out a locale by name as the "bad part" of America is unfair. Imagine if Barack Obama started talking that way about Alabama or something.
Chicago style politics and Obama? Wasn't the presidency the first election he won without some sort of scandal? Didn't he get someone thrown off a ballot once? Give me a break. There's a reason Obama=Chicago politics.

Is it that it's aired nationally or you can't blame it on your typical Republican and Tea Party whipping boys? You know the side that acts in bad faith and is destructive :laugh:.

wow just read 46 people were shot, 9 fatally in chicago last weekend. and dumb*ss mayor said the shootings were "isolated". umm there is nothing isolated about 46 people shot in a weekend.

his campaign to remove illegal guns is going fantastically well. maybe next weekend only 45 people will be shot.
