Rahm Emanuel to be Obama’s White House Chief of Staff
This should help alleviate Mr. Foley’s distaste for President elect Obama.

That’s two gone from Illinois, hope they take a few more and maybe we can get the State’s economy back on track.
Probably not, Chicago grows them like weeds. Never forget Hillary was from Chicago.
Sheesh Ric, I’d be worried about the “They pick the best and leave the rest”. You know how it is, kernel of truth in them sayings, eh!?!
HJ, if you think they are the best? Wow! Good people never go in to politics.
Ric,
Best is relative, but if what’s left is worse you’ll be steaming much more often!

I laughed my a** off when I read the headline. Just hilarious to me after all the “Muslim” talk.

Come, come, Ralph, you know it is a Mid(dle)-Eastern plot. 
Wasn’t it HJ that said that this was looking awful close to the “Bible Belt”. No self respecting Rag er Muslim wants to be caught dead around here. They just want to kill us, not join us. JEEEEEHADDDDD.
Sure does, but Illinois is barely touched in that chart. I don’t need the name of the state marked in order to know which is what (more or less! :P).

Tell ya what, Mr Berg, I promise never to mention him, his politics or his organisation again.
In return, I expect you to do the same for me, and not to express an opinion on what happens in goverment over here.
I think that’s fair, don’t you?

HJ,
People in Southern Illinois think the northern border is I-70, people in Chicago think Southern Illinois begins south of I-80. Your welcome to get out a road atlas to reference the highways. We just want them gone and we don’t care where they go.
Have you ever heard, dilution is the solution to pollution? Well, if we spread them around to the whole Country, they wont being screwing up our lives so much. Enjoy!

I do not understand why you think I do not wish to hear your opinion. I welcome your opinion. What ever the topic.
If I offended you by referencing you, I apologize.
I referenced you because of your concern that Mr. Obama would not be a strong supporter for Israel. I think his choice of Chief of Staff shows he, will indeed, be a strong supporter of Israel.

Ralph,
Do you feel that Emanuel fought in Israel for Israel’s benefit? Or for his own benefit with supporters of Israel in the USA? Many people think that Rahm Emanuel’s greatest supporter and fan is himself. I don’t know much about him, except that he was a Clinton supporter, so in my book he already has 4 strikes against him. BHO gets to choose who he wants. I just hope he keeps taking them out of Illinois.

Ric,
I can’t judge the man’s motives, only he knows for sure.
Either way, I don’t think anybody has to worry about Obama’s support for Israel.
Ralph
Ralph,
Maybe the early choice of Emanuel was to try and keep Israel from blowing Iran away before innaugaration day.
Just a thought.
