For old times’ sake (2005)….
President Obama salutes his former staffer on his victory Tuesday in Chicago’s mayoral election: “I want to extend my congratulations to Rahm Emanuel on a well-deserved victory tonight. As a Chicagoan and a friend, I couldn’t be prouder. Rahm will be a terrific mayor for all the people of Chicago.
“I’ve also just talked to President Obama,” Emanuel said in his victory speech, to which the crowd broke out in cheers. “He sends you his love and affection for his hometown.”

****ing outstanding title Chipsticks.. love your sense of humor, perfecto! Congratulations Mr. Mayor & Congratulations Chicago!
😆
My language is as fruity as Rahm’s, so I hope you appreciate my ****ing restraint at this lovely moment!!!!
Heh.. mine is too- I won’t say anything further on my filthy mouth.. years of practice in the military.. although I can’t put all the blame there, as according to my mom, I was writing ‘nasty’ words in chalk on the sidewalks as soon as I learned to spell 😉 lots of tobasco sauce and soap stuffed in my mouth over my childhood- so hats of to you for your ‘astericks’ 😉
Your comment …. thank you tobasco sauce and soap …. ****ing cracked me up!!!!
😆
Way to go Rahm!!!
Ha! Raaaaaaaahmmmmmmm!!!!!! [shaking fist]. The liberal elite must be crying their eyes out.
Good for Rahm. Great title, Chip!
Hope everyone’s doing well! 🙂
Hachikōooooooooooooooooo – ****ing lovely to see ya!!!
I think he will be a perfect f****ing mayor for Chicago. It’s a gritty, smart, classy town and he’s a gritty, street smart, classy guy. I think his experience in Washington in congress and the WH will be very helpful. He knows how things work. He’s not a cream puff, he’s tough. I think he will do well for the city. I wish Mayor Rahm and the windy city the very best.

They sure tried had to get him out but what are they talking about………….he’s lived damm f####ing Chicago all his live and I hope that dirty rat renter of his house gets kicked out on his butt very soon.
Please forgive all my typos and problems in that post. IIIII’mmmmmmm just sooooooooo f####ing excited!!!!!!!!
FUCK YEA!
Such a victory over the professionally lost. Wonderful! This is the first place I came to for the news… 🙂
LOL…y’all are crazy 😀
Congratz Rahm.
He f%@king smoked ’em. Congratulations Chicago and Rahm Emanuel!
Congratulations Mayor Emanuel!!
Maybe Mosley Braun will retire from politics. She really is horrible.
Must join you all in congratulations to Rahm….wish him and Chicago all the best. But, didn’t you all just enjoy that video of the roast.?….President Obama had this ability to make people laugh for a while. I was not aware of his skills in 2005. As I said the other day, damn he’s good.
You guys are ****ing funny and crazy. But it is though an ****ing big win, and am pretty sure the PL is going ****ing crazy. Congratz Mayor Rahm.
**** 😆
You guys crack me up! Rahm is no joke! He will get things done!!!! Congrats to Rahm and Chicago!!!
And lmao @ the people that were concern trolling “can he get the needed 50% votes to win?*. He wins with 55%….. just fabulous news. *so happy right now* 😀 😀
Hell ****ing Yeah! GO Rahm!!!!
F*** yeah!!!
I am so happy for Rahm! I never understood why so many came to hate him. I think he will do right by Chicago’s inner city. He always tell the story of his mother who was a civil right activist. She made sure her boys were exposed to the injustices in the world. Poor poor Mosley Braun…she truly made as ass of herself up the last moments.
F**king A!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SweeEEEEEEEt
Congrats, Rahmbo! All the stories about him are hysterical. This is a BFD!
FRAK YEAH!!! Made my day!!!
Hell yes!! Very happy for him.
Mosley Braun good ridiance!!!
Lost all respect for her after she defended a military dictator in Nigeria. she is a fraud.
As for rahm, his farewell speech from the whitehouse with PBO still makes me teary just thinking about it.
there is so much love and admiration on both ends. I think he was exactly what the president needed as a chief of staff for the first 2 years. someone that very tough and menacing. i think he did a great job preparing him for the next stage knowing that there a many wolves in sheep’s clothing that he is going to have to work with.
I am absolutely thrilled for Mayor Elect Rahm Emanuel. Good for him. He landed his dream job. I think he will make an outstanding mayor of Chicago. What an amazing ride for him. I hope it drives the frustrati professional left nuts. You can just imagine how disappointed they are about this win.
congratu*******lation Rahm 😀 mom woke me up at 10pm to watch the news and saw that Rahm had won so I just smiled and told her to get out of my room as I was sleepy 😆
would have loved it Chip if you posted( if possible and posted on the net 🙂 )the part were Rahm talked to the crowd about talking to POTUS please 😀
I love what these civil rights babies are doing now. It’s a Big F***ing Deal as the VP would say.
Congratulations Rahm, we know you will do all you can to help all the people of Chicago!!
I hope the conservatives were listening when it was stated that Jesse Jackson, Sr. tried to rally the African American vote for Moseley-Braun, and I hope they notice that it didn’t work. I’m sick of them saying that we voted overwhelmingly for BO in 2008 because he was AA, which is not true. We vote the same way they do. We vote for the candidate that we think will do the best job. I am very interested in what they’d have to say about the AAs in Chicago who decided NOT to vote for CMB in large numbers. I don’t mean to be rude, but I’m sick of them saying this. They need to STFU and stop trying to insult our intelligence.
Congratulatiom Mayor Elect Emmanuel, best wishes to you and Chicago.
