    Federal lawsuit accuses Obama center organizers of pulling a " bait and switch"

    I love it when the left eats its own. Looks like the "blush is off the rose" for Obama in Chicago...

    Federal lawsuit accuses Obama center organizers of pulling an 'institutional bait and switch'

    A federal lawsuit filed by a Chicago nonprofit in an attempt to block the Obama Presidential Center from being built in Jackson Park accuses organizers of pulling an “institutional bait and switch” by shifting the center’s purpose away from being a true presidential library

    Protect Our Parks Inc. also claims in its lawsuit, which was filed in U.S. District Court on Monday, that the Chicago Park District and the City of Chicago don’t have the authority to transfer public parkland to nongovernmental entity such as the Obama Foundation.

    Call your state legislators and insist they approve the Article V convention of States to propose amendments.

    This isn't a President Obama thing. It's a committee looking for a place for his library. Do you understand government at all?
    If the Republicans will stop telling lies about the Democrats, we will stop telling the truth about them.

    I love your goofy sense of humor.
