Good Call by Carol
Mayoral hopeful Carol Moseley Braun lashed out against Chicago Sun-Times columnist Neil Steinberg on Wednesday in response to a column criticizing the former U.S. senator.
“He is a drunk and a wife beater, and that’s a matter of record. I didn’t make that up. It’s the truth,” Braun said at a news conference called to outline her public safety platform.
“You know that old ‘Give ‘em hell Harry.’ I tell the truth, and they think it’s hell. I’m just going to tell the truth about these things. He is a drunk and a wife beater, and he insulted the entire African-American community in Chicago. And the Sun-Times, particularly based on its demographic . . . ought to do better by Chicagoans than to give this man a continual platform for his divisive rantings in the newspaper.”

She went after j-fled, Neil... I love it! She may not win, but I'll give her an "A+" in the ball busting category!
Because of closed minded morons that will only vote for people that are the same race as them she doesn't stand a chance even though she is the only candidate that has a close relative on the job. These are the same idiots that all voted for shanks because he was irish like them and we see how well that worked out.
Such open racism in Chicago politics. Rahm would be shunned if he constantly talked about the Jewish community. Daley wouldn't have lasted 20+ years if he repeatedly talked about the white community. However, its perfectly acceptable to use the phrase "black community" or "Hispanic community" in every side bite if you are a minority candidate. I couldn't vote for Carol, Danny, or Chico simply because they make it clear everytime they open their mouths that not only are they not concerned about me as a (white) citizen of Chicago, but they consider me an enemy of "their" community. Maybe I just don't have enough white guilt.
Funny, I thought all he disputed was the poll results she was touting that said she would be Rahm Emanuel.
What she didn't say what that most of those polled were politically active black women.
Steinberg wasn't racist, he was realistic.
Damn, if she can stay away from the race baiting politics she might actually make a good mayor. She told him and it was long overdue !
Yeah, let's not jump on her bandwagon though. Both her and Danny Davis told Clinton to stay out of town because the "African American community in Chicago doesn't want them here involved in this mayoral election". Hmmm. Really? The African Americans don't want them here huh? How about the rest of us? I think their platforms speak for themselves and I don't see myself or any of my family members benefitting from either of these two as my mayor. No thanks. Maybe one of the 2 hispanics or even the other moron, but I ain't votin' for no scumbags who have no problem talkin their shit like these two. Let's have a white caucus and see how much shit gets slung around. Let's tell the "African American" candidates the caucasions do want the Clintons here. This city is a fucking joke how some can spew their racial shit while others must sit mum.
CMB is actually quite clever and articulate(unlike the stuttering midget).She also comes from CPD family.I'm thinking she might be the best of the bunch running for mayor.With a retired PO as a father and a current(?)PO brother,I'm thinking she won't look at us with the disdain and disrespect Shorty has always shown.
Perhaps, trying to be politically correct, she purposely omitted mentioning that Steinberg is a complete f****** asshat. That is my conclusion about the man, anyway, after years of reading his drivel. And I'm not even a fan of hers.

Are you kidding me? Did this guy have his mind taken over by Midget Daley? Just fucking priceless!
Her brothers a Sgt of Detectives in area 2. She hit the nail on the head with that rant. "I'll get that door for you Ms Braun"
I would take her over raham.
This election is getting to be fun now. Rants, toilets flushing, court fights. Whooeee! Let 'er rip!

she's in the race to pull votes from those who won't be voting for rahmbo.
that's all.
"Maybe I just don't have enough white guilt.
12/30/2010 01:02:00 AM"
another subtle attempt to ensure that the voters will split their votes enough to, at the very least, put rahmbo in a one on one runoff.
the rahmboites figure money will do the rest.
"Damn, if she can stay away from the race baiting politics she might actually make a good mayor. She told him and it was long overdue !
12/30/2010 01:15:00 AM"
damn, another knucklehead who can't recognize a shill?
or the same rahmbo crew working the blogs?

how much beer, blow and reefers are you rahmboites getting per blogging sesion?

Fucking pricless. Why is it that certain people cant use a "ed" on the end of their words??
Ebonics baby.
She's a shill to bamboozle the black voter. Only question is what they promised her.
Steinberg IS a self-serving, alcoholic, wife beating, newspaper writer* but as long as she's taking a shot at self-serving newspaper writers* one must mention Mary Mitchell.
* I intentionally refrained from calling them....'journalists.'
but mary mitchell can spew racial hatred daily
between this comment and the Jfed remarks; SHE HAS MY VOTE
....and Mopra.
This is what we had and mother of g-d was it bad...

Braun, Davis = Racist … God help us all if any body uttered the words white caucus, white vote or white community.
I don’t understand … Why can the Black / Hispanic community get away with this obvious racism?
Why does no one check them?
About time that a news report mentioned that Steinberg is a drunk wife beater,but they did not mention that he is also a cop hater.
That's a good start Carol, now if you go after some of the other ballonheads in the media like Eric Zorn and Mary Mitchell you got my vote!
What a wonderful bunch of candidates...WE'RE FUCKED!!!
While we may agree on what she said, let's not lose sight of the fact that she's a politican and trying to seperate herself from the pack of wannabe mayors. Once in office, she may be completely different. Don't let her use the police department as a way to differentiate herself, if she does not mean it.
Such open racism in Chicago politics. Rahm would be shunned if he constantly talked about the Jewish community. Daley wouldn't have lasted 20+ years if he repeatedly talked about the white community.

They can do this because they are irrelevant. While their numbers are large their vote totals are not. They only want from the city, they have nothing to offer it.
They will live where they are told. They will eat where their card allows. They will take what they can get and prey upon their own for anything else they want.
Quite simply they have failed. More importantly, they have accepted failure, adjusted to it, and learned to live with it. What Braun says is only noise. She can say ridiculous things because no one is listening.
How is when the black newspapers and/or reporters say negative things about the white person, there is never a public outcry? I am so sick of this racial bullshit. And yes, there is alot of racial hatred toward whites.
This mayoral race has gone right down the drain. First Waguespack calls for a forensic audit, and fails to run. Then the favorite, Tom Dart, drops out to "spend more time with his family."
Horseshit, all horseshit. Rahm will win, I don't want him to but it is like all of daley's elections: there is no one else.
We're fucked.
all she did was make me want to read steinberg. hes pretty funny. shes pretty stupid. i believe her protest has caused the exact opposite of her desired result! i love it!
Chico... My mind is made up.
a hallow shirt - like JFLED was going to stay anyway you guys are pathetic you get it PATHETIC. That's is why we have had such bad politicians over the years.
She got my vote
Jesse was on tv pushing for the Peotone airport, again. Maybe he should disclose how much money he has invested down there?? Hmmm, any?
Wait a second here.wasnt she the first black female senater?
Why one term? and you think because she has a family member on the job she would help us? Who the heck do you think her advisors would be? Lord people she may be articulate but a mutt is a mutt. If she was that good would she not still be with DICK Durbin serving OUR great state of idiots and thieves? UFB
Are we really that naive????? I am sure whoever is elected will launch J.Fed....do not get a false sense of security from what Carol says......remember what she stands for and where this city will be going. Saw the same thing happen(for those of you old enough to remember) when the "police" forgot that Jane gave them a "contract"and got a union! Still many turned their backs on her..and the three way race made Harold Washington the Mayor!

Hmmm...seems to me like you're the knuclehead who has to keep on blogging. Couldn't fit all your bullshit responses into one thought? And you are calling other people knucleheads?

so, the buzz has finally worn off, has it?
"Chico... My mind is made up.
12/30/2010 07:15:00 PM"
that's comforting to know.
Tellin' it like it is said...
Yeah, let's not jump on her bandwagon though. Both her and Danny Davis told Clinton to stay out of town because the "African American community in Chicago doesn't want them here involved in this mayoral election".
----------------------------------
CMB has stated that she wants to represent all Chicagoans. Danny Davis, not CMB made the remarks about Clinton.
Her chances just improved exponentially with Davis dropping out.
Jaysus Mary and Joseph SCC! How many aides would you guess Rahmbo has working your blog? Hey Rahmbo, your infiltrators suck. Helen Keller coulda spotted them.
Danny Davis, not CMB made the remarks about Clinton.
After Davis groused about former President Bill Clinton's decision to campaign for Emanuel, Braun did the same -- adding her own dig at Emanuel.
"What we have is an outsider running for mayor and bringing outsiders in to help him," she told reporters a few days ago.
