Mr. BH needs a nemesis or he cannot exist. He lives through his Hellhole with his whole life is dedicated to amplifying the negative aspects of Rogers Park. I understand that Joe has made some serious mistakes in the past and that Mr. BH has been able to exploit them through his yellow journalism.
However, if Joe somehow is not elected this year, then who would make the best candidate to perpetuate the negative, absent, adverse, antagonistic, colorless, counteractive, cynical, denying, detrimental, disallowing, dissentient, gloomy, jaundiced, naysaying, neutralizing, nullifying, opposing, pessimistic, privative, removed, repugnant, unaffirmative, unenthusiastic, unfavorable, uninterested, unwilling, weak governing that we've become used to?
Skeletor Gordon is the obvious answer.
As our champion beat alderman Gordon is going to exploit our bordering neighborhoods - like Andersonville. His Republican Agenda will make the color and diversity of our neighborhood disappear. At least Joe understands that you can't kick out ALL of the black and latino people at once. Joe has taken a long time to slowly build up to where He can have mostly white people in Rogers Park through the condo conversions.
Skeletor will not be so nice. Somehow Skeletor believes that it's the color of our neighborhood that creates our problems. Creep! He'll work long and hard to remove these elements, I'm sure. And Mr. BH will continue to have an alderman that he can heckle and boo because "we've lost our diversity" and Rogers Park has been white-washed. And I'm afraid that Rodney will have to move since his mom cannot afford to live any where else in the city. They'll have to find a cheap suburb to move to. This means that I won't be able to see Rodney every night because neither of us a license or a car.
Let's take a look at what Skeletor has to say about Housing:
I will lead “balanced” housing development and…
* Create affordable housing for the Final solution
* Demand conscientious rental management
* Preserve homes and community character, insist on quality condo development for white people
First of all, why is the word balanced in quotation marks? Don't you usually do that when you are altering the meaning of the word? So I don't know what he really means. I'm so confused by Skeletor. If you have an ounce of intelligence, why would you vote for him?
You can most clearly see his Republican Agenda as you delve further into what he wants to do with management companies. George W. Bush has shown me that Big Government is not about laissez-faire - it's about controlling and limiting the choices we have as Americans. Skeletor will do the same thing for Rogers Parkers. Demanding that private citizens let him control whatever he wants. Even Joe understands that you can't control everyone - only people with money.
However, this is exactly what Mr. BH needs for his Hellhole. He understands that he needs either Joe or Skeletor or his miserable little existence as a blogger will end. He needs another alderman that will preserve all that is wrong for the people of Rogers Park and allow the Hellhole to live on indefinitely.
