    OR CELEBRATE SOMEONE CLOSE TO NAZIS YET:::????!!!
    
    In 1995, Ayers stated, &acirc;&#128;&#156;Maybe I&acirc;&#128;&#153;m the last communist who is willing to admit it. The ethics of communism still appeal to me.&acirc;&#128;&#157; 
    
    Dohrn is so radical that she made the following comments after Charles Manson&acirc;&#128;&#153;s &acirc;&#128;&#156;Helter Skelter&acirc;&#128;&#157; slayings. 
    
    &acirc;&#128;&#156;Dig it. First they killed those pigs, then they ate dinner in the same room with them. They even shoved a fork into the victim&acirc;&#128;&#153;s stomach. Wild!&acirc;&#128;&#157; 
    
    Obama's friends are radicals, communists, terrorists and dangerous for America. That is not right wing conspiracy nutwing rhetoric but it is sad reality.

      <![CDATA[Well, I must admit that I've never been blessed with the privilege of being present while you enjoy the magical mysteries of your drug of choice, hence, no, I was 'not there' during whatever delusional episode you experienced and shared with the readers of this blog.
    
    
    Sorry if you found yourself to be so lonely that your drug induced imagination conjured up an unrealistically willing partner to satisfy your twisted desires.
    
    Hope you had some mashed potatoes with your cob of corn.

      <![CDATA[I'm in town this week for two  friends of mine. To honor  Don Benedict and to see Frank Coconate gets a fair shake in Circuit Court in front of Judge Leroy Martin jr.
    
     Hopefully with the death of one ,will bring a victory to another.
    
    
    Rest in peace Don Benedict , hope you can remind Judge Leroy Martin jr, in spirit, what we all stood for and that guys like Frank Coconate is standing up for open government , just like Harold Washington.

      <![CDATA[By in the day you had people who stood foe something. Opposition meant opposition. Benedict was such an individual who stood on and for something. The IVI,ACLU BACK in the day stood for something .Today these groups have been taken over by spineless Motherfuckers whom seek approval and acceptance by a corrupt status quo. Also, the spineless pervaders will sale you out to a thug like Daley for a simple pat on the head. Like the old James Brown record "YOU SOLD ME OUT FOR CHICKEN CHANGE"

      <![CDATA[Alderman Richard "Dick" Mell did not know about it.  He joked that even in death he was getting criticized by the Rev.
    Mell had the upmost respect for Benedict and said he was a tough real believer and a tough election.
    
    Mell is going to introduce a resolution honoring him in the City Council.
    
    Ben Joravsky is the best at giving us real Chicago history.  A slice of history and politics.
    
    Rest in Peace  Don Benedict of Blessed Memory.
