Obama: Same Old Crap, New Package

And here's the proof. 49th Ward Alderman Joe Moore and 49th Ward Democrat Committeeman David Fagus are backing Barack in his bid to "bring change" to Amerika. Right. If Mr. Obama, friend of Tony Rezko, really really really stood for change then major political hacks like Moore and Fagus would not support him. In an email from Moore and Fagus today, we're all urged to attend a pro-Obama rally this coming weekend at Loyola. Obama endorsed Todd Stroger for President of the Cook County Board. Obama is new and fresh? Don't fool yourselves. Heather Steans, another Machine politician, will be in the rally, too. REMEMBER: FAGUS = STROGER = MOORE = OBAMA = REZKO = MACHINE POLITICS AS USUAL.

Rally for Barack Obama and Heather Steans

"But in the unlikely story that is America, there has never been anything false about hope. For when we have faced down impossible odds; when we've been told that we're not ready, or that we shouldn't try, or that we can't, generations of Americans have responded with a
simple creed that sums up the spirit of a people.

"Yes we can."

Barack Obama

Dear Neighbor,

Barack Obama's inspirational words last night in New Hampshire serve as a clarion call to action for all of us who love our country but despair at the direction our nation has taken. His presidential campaign represents a once-in-a-generation opportunity to fundamentally change the course of America, and move our great nation one giant step forward to fulfilling its promise.

As the results of the New Hampshire primary demonstrate, the road will not be easy. But the battle for our nation's future is worth it.

Won't you join us?

We will be hosting a RALLY FOR BARACK OBAMA this Saturday, January 12th, 10 a.m. at the Loyola Park Fieldhouse, 1240 W. Greenleaf, 2nd Floor. We will also be rallying support for HEATHER STEANS, a fresh new progressive face to the local political scene and our candidate for the Illinois State Senate.

Congresswoman JAN SCHAKOWSKY will be our featured speaker.

Senator Obama will be campaigning in Nevada and South Carolina, but he needs us to start woking for him here in Illinois. A big victory in Illinois will go a long way to securing his nomination for President. And a big voter turn-out in the 49th Ward, long a bastion of Obama support, will make that happen.

Please join us this Saturday and enlist in our campaign for change!

Sincerely,

DAVE FAGUS
Democratic Committeeman

JOE MOORE
Alderman
