The new federal lawsuit was filed on Monday by public parks activists against the city of Chicago and the Chicago Park District, the Chicago Sun-Times reported .

Because it isn’t a library, it is destroying national parks that by law were supposed to remain untouched, was based on lies even to the local African American community, and has been approved through typical Chicago corruption. Sounds like Obama, doesn’t it?

Critics of the plan are quite unsatisfied with the plans to charge the Obama Foundation only a tiny token amount to rent the acreage. Activists feel that if the city does rent out the land to such a massive commercial enterprise, then fair rent should be charged.

Indeed, critics of the ex-president’s plans note that he perpetrated a massive bait and switch on the city. Since Obama decided not to actually make his library a library and to instead make it a giant private enterprise, he has lied about the ultimate purpose of his center.

Last year, for instance, Chicagoans discovered that Obama does not plan to house his papers, books, and records in the “Obama Center.” So, in fact, it won’t be a presidential “library” as every other modern ex-president has built. But unlike other presidents, Obama says he’ll leave his papers in a locked-up storage facility and they will be unavailable to researchers. Instead he will eventually digitize everything so that they can be available on computers.

There is no telling how long that will take, so it appears that Obama’s records will be out of reach to researchers and historians for some time.

So, Obama is calling his facility the “Obama Center” because it doesn’t qualify as a “library” since he isn’t putting his records there.

Preservationist groups are also warning that the planned Barack Obama Center in Chicago may violate federal laws against destroying sites placed on the National Register of Historic Places.

The Obama Center is currently planed to spread out over sections of three sites with history stretching back to 1869, according to the Chicago Sun-Times.

The portion of Jackson Park that Obama intends to disrupt with his massive new project includes the area where the World’s Columbian Exposition was staged in Jackson Park and the Midway in 1893. Created by famed architect Daniel Burnham — the man who planned New York’s Central Park — The Midway was placed on the historic site registry in 1972.
