Chicago welcomes Farrakhan's Nation of Islam army, but not Chic-fil-A

 

Warning: This is so mind-bogglingly horrendous that it will make your head spin. It's simply unimaginable that this could happen at all, but both in the same day?  That's just too WEIRD.

 

Chicago Sun Times:

“Chick-fil-A’s values are not Chicago values. They’re not respectful of our residents, our neighbors and our family members. And if you’re gonna be part of the Chicago community, you should reflect Chicago values,”

Emanuel said Wednesday.

 

Chicago Sun Times:

Ignoring Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan’s history of anti-Semitic remarks, Mayor Rahm Emanuel on Wednesday welcomed the army of men dispatched to the streets by Farrakhan to stop the violence in Chicago neighborhoods....

 

 

Oh, and by the way, while we're talking about famous Chicagoans... let's not forget Obama's mentor, Jeremiah Wright. Not only did he travel with Louis Farrakhan to visit Qaddafi in Libya in the 80s, but he - together with Barack Obama - "helped organize" Farrakhan's Million Man March in Washington in 1995.

Watching Obama's friends as they cavort across the national landscape is like watching an endless cavalcade of freaks, misfits, good-for-nothings, ne'er-do-wells, oddballs, scalawags, aberrations, troublemakers, miscreants, sad sacks, losers, delinquents, rotten apples and no-accounts -- an interminable parade of the worst America has to offer. I have concluded that a Romney victory is essential if for no other reason than that we desperately need to relegate all these nightmarish creatures back to the shadows from which they sprang. In the beginning, when Tony Rezko appeared on the scene, he seemed to add nothing more than a little raffishness to the national background. But then along came Wright and Ayers and Farrakhan and a seemingly infinite caravan of the dissolute, the disreputable, and the disgraceful. This country can do better than that. It's time we did.
