The Obama Way
A tale of two quotes:
"They pull a knife, you pull a gun. He sends one of yours to the hospital, you send one of his to the morgue. That's the Chicago way!"
"If you get hit, we will punch back twice as hard".
The first, of course, is a memorable Sean Connery line from "The Untouchables" on how to "get" Al Capone.
The second is a quote from White House aide Jim Messina to Democratic Senators on how the Administration plans to deal with those who oppose their health care reform plan. That, of course, is the Obama Way.
Congratulations to the Hope and Change crowd for bringing Chicago thug politics to a nation weary of business as usual in Washington. It's change we have to believe in...if we know what's good for us.
Welcome to Chicago, America.
