House For Sale Next To Obama's Chicago Home

POLL: What should I do with this house?

You may select 1 option



User avatar
Comrades,

I am contemplating buying the house next to Dear Leader's house. What should I do with it once I purchase?

House for sale next to Obama's mansion listed at $1.85 million

https://www.chicagotribune.com/business/chi-obama-neighbor-oct26-,0,28911.story

"The notion of living next door to a sitting president is no longer priceless.

It's $1.85 million.

That's the price tag listed for 5040 S. Greenwood Ave., a home that rose to national prominence this fall when it was offered for sale because it just happens to be next door to the Obama's Chicago home.

Bill and Jacky Grimshaw have owned the Kenwood home since 1973. They put it up for sale in September for an unspecified sum because neither they nor their real estate agent, Matt Garrison, knew how to calculate "the Obama factor" of the 17-room brick house, which needs substantial renovation.

After more than a month with no takers, the home will be listed Tuesday morning on the local multiple listing service, which means a price had to be set."

{off} I would buy it, fly a giant gadsden flag from the roof day and night, and probably make it into a homeless shelter and drop in center. Not only would it stand a chance of doing something useful then, but also it would bring an "undesirable" element into the neighborhood LOL.

It's a good time for the neighbor to sell, because Dear Leader will never live in that house again. He'll need something far more palatial. Isn't the Kennedy compound going up for sale? I'd welcome him to my home state of Tedachusetts with open arms.

I hear that His O'liness has been casting his eye over the Vatican. Michelle can teach the cardinals how to dress--you know, like her wearing white on Memorial Day when everyone else was wearing black.

And His O'liness and his Chicago and ACORN homies can shoot hoops in the Sistine Chapel.

It's important for the masses to know that a bigger, nicer house doesn't lead to happiness, and won't solve all your problems--so you may as well not bother to try for a better life, and content yourself with your current miserable state:

The article explores the effects of the presidency on the couple's 17-year union, and revisits well-documented tension between them in earlier years as Obama pursued his political career in Illinois, leaving Mrs. Obama largely home alone in Chicago with their daughters.

I wonder if this is why she claims to have such a special interest in military families. Does she really think she can empathize and sympathize with them because she was stuck all alone in that great big house in Chicago while Barack was just down the road in Springfield? Am I to understand she never saw him for months at a time, not even on weekends or holidays?

How many of our troops in Afghanistan get a night off to take their wives to New York for dinner and a show?

I do know she thinks he could get shot just going to the gas station. Ah, now that gives her something in common with military wives!

Mrs. Obama, who sat with her husband for the interview in the Oval Office, said marriage doesn't necessarily become easier just because a couple moves into a big white house with servants and security at every turn.

Whine, whine, whine.

Poor Michelle. How she suffers. Doesn't have to worry about groceries or meals or laundry or utility bills or having to plunge the toilet after Barack leaves it backed up for the umpteenth time. And if the air conditioner breaks down in 90+ degrees weather (like it did recently at Pinkie's Florida dacha), it gets fixed before Her Resentment even notices, and she doesn't have to hold off buying a new pair of $500 sneakers or $600 earrings to pay the repair bill.

How I'd love to give her a good bitch-whack with my shovel.

User avatar
Pinkie go easy on Michelle. First of all, the NYT couldn't find one decent photo/photoshop of her for the slide show. Second of all, my video just posted last night explains what Michelle has to deal with. Think Mrs. McGreevey.
You think I'm joking? Ivana is a pisces and is nearly never wrong.

I met some of my husband's old girlfriends and I saw their pictures. Roberta double D, his prom date, stood out! Has Michelle ever seen or met Barry's old flames? There was a fictional girl in Dreams but that was a figment of Ayers' imagination based on his girlfiend Diane Oughten. Does this explain partly why Barry's past is cloaked in secrecy?

Maybe he doesn't have narcissistic personality disorder. Maybe it's a lot more complex than that.

User avatar
Do you suppose that General Obamissimo was rotating in Springfield?

Pinkie, let us be generous with Her Resentment. After all, her senior thesis at Princeton was a long whine about how they told her that she didn't have to grades to get into Princeton, and she wrote it from Princeton. Then she got a job for about $300K a year, for a post with the University of Chicago, a post created for her, and which disappeared when she quit it.

Now she has 26 personal aides, as opposed to Laura Bush's one. And Our Many Titted Empress' three.

It must be so hard not to have had all that handed to instantly she popped out of the womb. Because from the moment that she was conceived, it was ordained that nothing would be too good for her.

A French duchess, some 250 years ago, at a ball would merely, when the need arose, take a dump on the floor, reasoning that a duchess' shit somehow didn't stink because it came out of a noble ass.

We have some noble asses, and holes therein, in the White House today.

Glorious! Barry's whole life is one big hypocritical oxymoron. Am I being too harsh? And can I use those two words together...maybe they cancel each other out? Any English majors out there?

User avatar
No, I don't think that they cancel each other out--a conservative saying "Democratic integrity" would be oxymoronic. A self-aware Democrat saying it would be hypocritically oxymoronic.

User avatar
And...I tried to get the visual out of the quote...no luck. Would someone mind helping me out?

User avatar

User avatar
A very stupid Republican might say, without irony, thinking perhaps of Scoop Jackson, "Democratic integrity." Say a very stupid Republican who had been lost on a desert island for two decades and hadn't had a single chance to marvel at Nansky or Dingy Harry or Barack, Lord Obama. Or the Hildebeest, our Many Titted Empress.

It's really hard, you know, like trying to visualize four spatial dimensions.

User avatar
Ok, first, my brain hurts, but I'm still can't stop laughing! Secondly, since I'm very new around here...I must admit that I don't who the Many Titted Empress is! (ducking from flying tomatoes or any other rotten fruit or perhaps a hard red cube) Forgive and enlighten me, brave Theocritus!

The Hildebeest often comes over to my house in West Texas, the Rancho de Rio Grande while there the gets drunk on bloody marys made with the blood of rich, white, Rethuglican virgins. Then she tears chunks out of my terrazzo with her hooves. Bruno and I have to sluice her room, which has a drain in the middle, out with heated naphtha. You cannot imagine the carnage when Janeane Gawdawfulo comes in too.

Some people get upset when we go off thread but it doesn't particularly bother me; you may be chid lightly once or twice.

Commisarka Pinkie is in charge of the Beet of the Week selection process, so to get a Beet of the Week it is neccessary to get her attention. That gives you a roughly 50-50 chance of a beet of the week or a series of shovel whacks for interrupting her relentless pursuit of liver failure.

As to going off thread, most cubists are easily distracted by shiny objects or unusual noises and will not notice that the thread has moved from one topic to another.

Comrade Casserole Czar,

The Great Castrate tm was an English As A Second Language Major, your usage of oxymoron is not proper Progressive English. The korrect Progressive term is "Nazi Moron", that would be something refering to BushHitler, Dick Chainey, or Glen Beck.

However, this can be forgiven, applications for reparations are available in the Peoples Republic Of Cuba Publik Kitchen. We are in need of qualified kookscooks.

Comrade,

The Great Castrate tm will not tolerate going off topic in threads in subjects I originate. Being that is something that I constantly never do, I expect others to follow my example. I do however allow my threads to be hijacked under the following conditions.

All off topic discusions must include one or more of the following:

1. Statements that are vile, obscene, racist, hateful, or just socially unacceptable in general.

2. Graphics or Photos of a sexual nature (please forward them to me first for my pleasure review).

3. Comments that are degrading to other Comrades.

Here's our MTE modeling her grandmother's hand me down blue burka in Pakistan recently. The Pakistanis were so moved by her presence, they detonated a 1 megaton car bomb in her honor. Taking advantage of the setup provided and relying on her rapier wit, the MTE quickly responded to the blast with her best Flat Fatima impression:

Comrade Turboski, Nice to meet you! Here's an idea...
How about when OUR women go THERE, they agree to wear burkas, and when THEIR women come HERE, they agree to wear string bikinis and high heels? After all, both displays of virtue are seen as highly desirable in each corresponding culture. (obscene, racist, hateful, socially unacceptable--check! Obama bless you, Great Castrate!)

Honorable Castrate, I am currently forced labor employed in the People's kollective kitchen. Maybe I can find some other way to show my repentance for forgetting to use the Progressively Correkt term "Nazi Moron?" Besides, here in the CUBE kitchen, I get a consistent beet ration for my labors...I have heard there is a shortage in kaliforniaCUBA and I may only get a voucher/IOU.

Comrade Betinov, Since I do revere Commisarka Pinkie, I am hesitant to attempt to get her attention. Though getting a Beet of the Week award is definitely something worth risking a whack on the head for! It may be unavoidable however, because I am very easily distracted, especially by shiny objects...like the hypnotizing glimmer in our Dear Leader's eyes.

Insightful Theocritus,
Now that I know how to identify our MTE, I think I have spotted her a couple of times...is this her?
Image Image No, you are right...I think I must have mistaken her for Peloski,that bloodsucker.

User avatar
CC, our Many Titted Empress will always be in the hearts and minds of people here at the Cube. She is the perfect progressive: completely dishonest, mean, nasty, a liar, and a thief. And so full of herself that if she took in a single fact which didn't help her in her climb to supremacy she'd burst.

What's not to love?

The pictures that you post have captured our MTE's essential soul, but not her essential ass.

And as for those pictures being of Peloski--well, dear Nansky has passed the blood-sucking quite a while ago. She tears chunks out of people with her sharp and pointed teeth and eats them raw.

Yes, the resemblance is very accurate. For our newly indoctrinated I posted Comrade Red Square's glorious AgitProp tm for proper historical perspective.

Casserole Czar,

Actually both thoughts are Korrekt. Seems Nosferatu was a true Progressive. The only difference is that modern Progressives, such as Nansky and the MTE, now have Botox, dental implants, and advanced nail hygiene to hide their true character. But they are all blood suckers and flesh eaters equally.

Is there any photo evidence of the Oprahloompa in a burka? Her house is just a bit bigger than the Obama's. She's either a kapitalist or a socialist. But one thing we know for sure, she likes to snuggle up in Barry's armpit.

Comrade Casserole,

I wonder the same thing. Perhaps Comrade Oprah is both a capitalist and a Marxist. Capitalism for her, and the Public Option for everyone else.

User avatar
Being a Made Progressive, I firmly believe in the Public Option. For everyone. Except of course for Made Progressives.

But help me here, comrades. If big pharma can't make money why will they continue to do research? And if doctors aren't paid that well, why won't bright people go into other fields?

Oh. I'm slapping my forehead right now. We'll <i>make them do it</i>.

I'm all for socialized, death-panel medicine progressive health care. I mean, when you're worried about your health, the last thing that you want to do is think, isn't it? So much more comforting to sit in the hall of a hospital for ten hours with a broken bone, like in England, than to have to make a decision about how to treat an illness. Which you'd have to do if you were whisked into an American ER and got your X-Ray right up front. If you're in the national health service hospital then you're so damned tired when that you won't worry about making a decision that you won't have to make.

And why worry about how to pay for something? If you get an Acura or a Lexus you have to worry about paying for it. But if you have a Trabant, furnished by the State, then you just don't have the worry of payment.

After the stunning defeat of vote-counting in NJ, I am going home and roll into a fetal position with my copy of Marx clasped to my bosom, and rise periodically to take large swigs of Pinkie's Putinka Vodka.

And then blame it all on Glen Beck.

Personally I think that ACORN is spending entirely too much time laundering money from child prostitution rings. Don't they know that that's something you do <i>after</i> you have destroyed the rule of law, replacing it with diktat? I mean, consider the efficiency. All right, so you advise on child prostitution rings. So what? You have to be quiet when you do that and worry about exposure.

But if everyone is terrified of you, and if you have destroyed Faux Noise, and if the Fairness Doctrine has shut up Rush Limburger and if the Legacy Media is being bailed out and will say what you want to say, then you get to do what you want and you can even set up stands in the Washington Mall:

Kool-Aid and Money-Laundering Services
