A film crew takes a look at the housing developments in Chicago that Senator Obama was responsible for.
From Chicagoans against Obama:
A DAY IN THE LIFE OF SOME FOLKS LIVING JUST A FEW BLOCKS FROM SENATOR OBAMA (AND I DON�T MEAN LOUIS FARRAKHAN, OR BILL AYERS)
Wouldn�t it be nice if NBC, CBS, or ABC went to Barack Obama�s former State Senate district just once�..just one time�it�s only about a 10 minute trip from the lovely miracle mile�.where I know Brian Williams, Katie Couric, and Charles Gibson stay�at the Ritz, Peninsula, Park Hyatt, or Four Season�quite frequently�.
It is interesting that such highly respected journalists -- who claim to care so much about minorities and the impoverished -- have never taken a visit to the Democratic nominees former state senate district�
A neighborhood infested with crime, slumlords, religious zealots, drug abuse, gang warfare, and the highest murder rate in the country�
Federal money obtained by Obama (when he was a State Senator) back in 1990's used for privately built subsidized housing. The builders are major campaign contributors. They have taken the money and not bothered to do any basic maintenance. Wonderful!
