"The Truth Hurts" is the name of the blog, found at http://49thwardtruthsquad.blogspot.com.
Who is this blogger? He/She/They are anonymous. Well, that's not very forthcoming, is it? That's a hypocritical way to pretend to be the Truth Squad.
Look, friend, if you really want to do what you claim, then more power to you. Welcome to the neighborhood. But why the chicken poop anonymity? (Are you really Alex Armour?)
So, the truth hurts, eh? Apparently for you it is also embarrassing, or else you would reveal your true identity.
The very first posting starts off admitting that the blogger is neither objective nor without an agenda:
"Negative attack blogs are playing a role in elections today. Here in beautiful Rogers Park, a couple of nasty people with way too much time on their hands have set to work to systematically set out to frame the debate surrounding the re-election of Alderman Joe Moore, a progressive with a prove record of accomplishment and distinction."
What can we learn from that one paragraph? Quite a bit, really. First, this blogger complains about other bloggers not being objective, but unashamedly calls them/us nasty. Look, friend, I don't think any of us claim to be objective. I'll even defend my good friend and colleague Craig "Hell Hole" Gernhardt on that count. Only a moron would not be able to discern the injections of opinion in Craig's blog, my blog, or anybody else's blog. You want objective? Read the Washington Times, genius, not a neighborhood blog.
Of course, the kicker is the completely objective phrase, "Alderman Joe Moore, a progressive with a prove record of accomplishment and distinction." Uh huh.
Alright, let's cut the crap. This cowardly anonymous blogger is most likely Alex Armour, Joe Moore's campaign fuhrer and former Schakowsky blogmeister. But maybe not. Whoever it is, they should grow a spine and admit who they are, and what their true agenda is.
