I love Chicago

If you can't change a city, how can you change a nation?

Yes, you can with Kool Aid!

Have a suggestion for you: Head on out to Arkansas and see some of the great Clinton legacy.

Oh, my bad. That was Bill. Hillary hasn't really done anything at all.

Ahhh... Obama FTW!

No shiat... Or at least try to actually adress issues. All I see from most of these bozos is the same old cry and whine against Obama.

FYI... half of the footage is from the North Side

Do look at where the 13th district, though. Lots of change. I should know... I freackin live there.

Have a great Monday VJ!

What a shithole. This country needs change all right.. So many places need to be bulldozed down.

Yeah, just a cheap propaganda piece. That's really all metta has ever posted here.

Yah, that sounds like a plan.....let's bulldoze all the areas that aren't tourist attractions!

Did anyone notice they showed the same images over and over again. It's not like they were going from neighborhood to neighborhood, just regurgitating the same building from different angles. And, to show the EL tracks? WTH is that? Of course they are a little beat up....they get used every day!

Look at any big city that has been controlled by dems in general and you see the same thing. I don't think it's a Obama or a Clinton thing. It's the liberal policies that do it. Chicago, New Orleans, Newark, Detroit ect..... they all have one thing in common, liberal policies destroying the economy.

So true Gary. Melbourne Aus was a nobody city until Jeff Kennett, a right wing conservative, was elected. He turned the city into a power house. This champion politician turned a dying city, a Pittsburgh basically, into one of the best and most livable cities in the world. The left / pro-union kicked and screamed at everything he did. The unions cried and cried, even though these fools enjoyed the abundant amount of work his projects created. He has been out of office since 1999 yet his projects still live on. Left wing government in office since then has done absolutely fucken nothing.

Funnily enough I see similarities in US cities. Most of the run down, has-been, dump cities seem to be run by democrats. People who talk a big game during elections yet actually oppose any form of change. People who simply do not understand the long term value and psychological empowerment the aesthetic rejuvenation of a city brings to people. Capitalism 101 for job creation.

But hey they are the first to talk about change in the form of bloody rights. Pretty much the only thing they do in America. Use cliche slogans based on the bandwagon issue of the month and then talk about rights. If that fails they resort back to bringing up slavery and segregation. A nice trick to divert attention while their cities become more and more 3rd world like, daily.

I love Chicago. It's a great city. It just needs a conservative running it and it will be much better.

I hate Chicago too....If I didn't have to work for a living to support all those liberal inner city programs, I wouldn't be here!

OK, I actually watched the video, and I have to say, it was a pretty pathetic argument. Are they hoping you, the viewer, are stupid enough to think that's what most of Chicago looks like? Or that one politician can erase poverty 100% from a city?

Everyone knows the south side of Chicago is poor. Poverty isn't erased by one politician. That blog must think you're pretty stupid. But I guess you fell for it, metta.

The same argument has been applied to NJ too - that Newark and Atlantic City are representative of the entire state. Just isn't true.

Most big cities (outside the South, but even there) are run by Democrats. I invite you to visit Minneapolis. It's beautiful and you'll hardly see ware and tear. Run by Democrats. I think you'd really like it there. Except for the high level of education there -- you might feel uncomfortable when you find your ideas are unpopular there.
