il miglior fabbro

Victor Davis Hanson, making a point that's obvious to those who have paid attention to the Leader of the Free World's career:
There has been bad blood between Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama ever since their acrimonious 2008 nomination fight. Hillary should beware: Obama has a long Chicago memory, and as an unfettered lame duck he no longer worries about polls or national elections. Coincidentally, Hillary just learned that federal officials are once again looking into her private e-mail mess and her possible release of classified information to friends and associates. She should remember what happened to General David Petraeus, whose use of private e-mails and sharing of classified documents were apparently known to the Obama administration well before the 2012 election — but mattered more opportunely after the Obama victory, when it led to Petraeus’s resignation and eventual guilty plea to a federal charge of unauthorized removal and retention of classified information. In Chicago style, the sword of Damocles falls when the boss chooses.

Even more curious, as Stanley Kurtz has pointed out, the Obama administration is apparently going ahead with its bizarre plan to force elite suburbs to diversify and become more racially proportionate under federal guidance (certain tony enclaves like Oprah’s Montecito or Silicon Valley’s Woodside will no doubt be exempt). Disbursements of federal money will apparently be used to alter zoning laws in wealthier areas, with the purpose of granting access to the underprivileged. Guess which exclusive enclave the Obama administration tried targeting first?

Westchester, N.Y. – home to Hillary Clinton. Pettiness too is a Chicago presidential trait.
Emphasis mine. The most important thing to remember about Barack Obama is that he is a Chicago politician. Read the whole thing.

You know, it's a shame that Cabrini Green got torn down, because I'm sure that Mr. Obama would have shown his affinity for poor communities by living in one like Mayor Byrne did! And hopefully when he does, the Secret Service guys don't wander off to Rush Street....

makes me wonder what Obama has on John Roberts. probably something real good...

not to mention how he's managed to punk the GOP leadership into a bunch of nancys.
