In Canada its the Borat Dion humour “Bang the Dog”
In the USA its Barrack Bama humor “Bang da Hood”
Maybe the O could help out in TO. I suspect there have been more fatalities on the streets than in Afghanistan. Mayor Miller take note!
Even though this “community organizer” job has been mentioned ad nauseum these last few months I confess I still have no idea what a community organizer actually does.
Well at least gun control is working…soon all of America can follow Chicago’s progressive example.
I suspect community organizers do SFA.
Saul Alinsky was the mentor of Hill and O and countless others.
It’s a variant of socialism: communism-socialism-Red-Green, etc.
This is where Hillary is from when she said: “It Takes A Village To Raise A Child”.
Hillary glossed the source by saying it was “an old African proverb”.
…-
“The Democratic Promise”
“Few know it today, but Chicago was the birthplace of a powerful grassroots social movement that changed political activism in this country.” “Community Organizing” was pioneered in Chicago’s old stockyards neighborhood by the soberly realistic, unabashedly radical Saul Alinsky.”
“The event was revolutionary in American history because it was the first time an entire community was organized. The union, the community and the Church became one and the same.” http://www.itvs.org/democraticpromise/alinsky.html
They should put that map on their travel promotion brochures.
maz2…that’s quite a find.Gives whole new meaning to ‘community’ and ‘organiser’. How subtle of the Dems, just making it sound so nobel, and honorable.
Funny the media didn’t dig this up…it was too easy to find stuff on Palin, and spin it.
No not really funny.
An estimated 123 people were shot and killed over the summer. That’s nearly double the number of soldiers killed in Iraq over the same time period.
No surprise. The black on black murder rate is horrendous, Detroit, New Orleans and DC are not much better, a reality that the MSM would never touch with a ten foot pole or hold blacks responsible. The common thread with these hellholes and their crime stats is that they have a heavy presence of black mayors, black politicos and community organizers of the Obama/Rev. Wright ilk. Our little black Messiah’s community “organizing” gig had the same outcome as all of the insincere money-down-the-rat-hole schemes that the NGO players have gamed in Africa. Nothing happened for the better.
Until blacks stop electing corrupt slobs by skin color only their neighborhoods and cities will continue to be violent places. Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick admitted guilt today and will see prison time, what’s new, like Marrion Barry in DC he’ll be back and a player again.
If Obama did anything of merit during his “community organizing” years where is it? As Sarah Palin pointed out he has written two vanity biographies about himself and not passed one bill with his name on it. He sat out almost 100 Senate votes on important issues. Obama serves no one but himself.
It’s probably phonier that a lot of us might think. When i hear that term, i think of a person actualy doing something, and some of the people with that title might be useful. I suspect at O’s level he probably rarely even met any of those people, it was all resume building.
Quick,someone catch Andrew Sullivan before he gets the vapours. Unless bringing up, say, the number of meth labs in a small town is someone comparable to almost 125 murders in one summer (and the summer isn’t over yet)…
He can’t prevent John MacCain’s wife coming over like a country singer. His wife is giving the most amazing “country soul” speech. She should be made VVP!!!
His wife is amazing!!
Palin’s speech last night reminded me of a Entertainment Tonight reporter making fun of a celebrity’s designer dress. We have become so dumb as a society we think that these insulting jokes make a great speech. Obama’s speech was ten times better and he will be president. Maybe Palin can take the job of that transvestite on ET who makes fun of celebrities.
Best way to see Chicago is in your rear-view mirror.
I used to wake up in the morning hoping it had slid into Lake Michigan so I wouldn’t have to drive through it.
They’ve tried to clean up the slums by levelling a lot of failed slum housing. I think some of those were Osama’s buddy Resko’s…
Drive right past a garbage dump on the way in…
Oh yeah…a shining beacon alright. More like a lighthouse warning of running aground on rocky shoals if you sail any closer…
They think they have a hope for their Olympic bid…

We heard you, cbailey…
I think there may be a thread somewhere in regards to Mrs. Palin’s speach. Try trolling in there – you may get a bite.
Time to pull out of Chicago.
I read somewhere that “Community Organizer” was another way of saying “political pork distributer”.
Obama determined who received what gov’t grant when he was “organizer”.
“Kill all the rich people. Break up their cars and apartments. Bring the revolution home, kill your parents, that’s where it’s really at.”
– William Ayers,
Ayers had a working relationship with Obama; that has been well established. Ayers has not changed his views, now expressing regret he did not do enough.
“No surprise. The black on black murder rate is horrendous … ”
Wow.
Umm…… cbailey
Obama has no international, domestic or executive experience. He did however spend 20 years in a white-hating racist church and brought his kids and wife with him. To suggest this self-absorbed racist empty suit would make a good president of anything is a clear indication of the narcissistic driven depravity of the left.
America is about capitalism, rugged individualism and leadership, not groupthink socialism pushed by some self absorbed effeminate rock-star wannabe.
Chicago I believe is one of the few cities in the US where handguns are banned.
When faced by an uncomfortable fact, the only responses leftists can come up with are:
“Racist!” – all leftists
“Wow!” – David
Please, David, provide us the statistics comparing black-on-black violence versus white-on-white violence in Chicago, Detroit, New Orleans and DC. I’d be interested in seeing this.
Kate:
Hilarious title to this post (“A community organized”)! Perfect for an attack ad.
An estimated 123 people were shot and killed over the summer. That’s nearly double the number of soldiers killed in Iraq over the same time period.
So, the “big O” wants to lead the country in the same path he led Chicago in? Ok, fine with me, eh…NOT
Perhaps O has a plan to withdraw the police force from Chicago – seems pretty dangerous there
“And the word was made flesh
The New Republic article on Obama’s time as a community organizer on the South Side of Chicago begins with him telling his mentor why he was quitting. The pay was too low and it didn’t work. “Obama told Kellman that he feared ending up destitute and unhappy like his dad. ‘He wanted to marry and have children, and to have a stable income,’ Kellman recalls.” Obama, to hear tell, stopped being a community organizer because he didn’t want to be a loser.” http://pajamasmedia.com/richardfernandez/

“he didn’t want to be a loser.”

Is the baddest part of town
And if you go down there
You better just beware

A. And the even better ones seek lots of credit!

Q. And someone gets paid for this?
A. It’s a very important job.
Q. I still don’t understand what the hell it is.
A. Maybe that’s because it’s such a complex occupation.
Q. Or maybe because it’s a BS job Barack Obama made up.
A. It’s not made up. There’s even a Wikipedia article on community organizing. Here’s the opening paragraph:
Community organizing is a process by which people are brought together to act in common self-interest. While organizing describes any activity involving people interacting with one another in a formal manner, much community organizing is in the pursuit of a common agenda. Many groups seek populist goals and the ideal of participatory democracy. Community organizers create social movements by building a base of concerned people, mobilizing these community members to act, and developing leadership from and relationships among the people involved.
Q. Huh?
A. See, it’s very complicated and important.
Q. If it takes that many words to describe and it’s still not clear what it is, I’m pretty sure it’s a BS job.
A. Know what? Why don’t you rot in your disorganized community you @#$%ing caveman.
Q. And who are the idiots paying these people salaries?
A. It’s the community! They want this! Without the organizing there would be riots and cannibalism!
Q. I’m pretty sure we’ll be fine organizing ourselves.
A. You stupid, gun-toting redneck, this is why people like us don’t even bother trying to talk to people like you. You belittle important things you don’t understand while clinging to your book about the invisible sky fairy!
Q. It’s a made up job.
A. One day Barack Obama will force all your ignorant communities to be organized! Then you’ll get your comeuppance! All of you who laughed at him, we’ll see if you’re laughing then!
Q. I’m pretty sure I will be laughing. I’ll actually make a point of walking up to the community organizer and laughing at him because he wasn’t able to get a real job.
A. Then you’re just mean.
Q. Mean and working an actual job I can explain to others.
A. Hillbilly.
Send in the O!
