Obama crony, Rahm Emanuel has been in office for 7 years, and like a typical Democrat Mayor, he continues to blame everyone but himself for the sorry state of this once amazing city filled with tourists, who once considered it a safe place to visit.

So far, according to “Hey Jackass“, a website that keeps detailed accounts of shootings in Chicago, in the month of August 17 people have been killed, and 95 have been shot and wounded.

According to the Chicago Sun Times, this weekend’s bloodbath that left 71 people shot and 12 people dead has become political shrapnel in the heated race for mayor of Chicago.

Fired Chicago Police Superintendent Garry McCarthy was the first to attack Mayor Rahm Emanuel, citing a six-hour period that left five people dead and more than 30 others shot, most of them teenagers.

Starting at 5 p.m. Friday and ending at 5 a.m. Monday, the tally was: Three people shot Friday evening; 14 shot Saturday; 48 shot Sunday; and six shot early Monday.

McCarthy noted that, as grieving families filled overwhelmed emergency rooms, Emanuel was demonstrating how “out of touch with reality” and residents of Chicago’s “neediest neighborhoods” he is — by holding a news conference about a $10 million dollar expansion of the downtown Riverwalk.

“This is a mayor who continues to ignore this epidemic of violence that’s taking over communities on the South and West Sides of this city,” McCarthy was quoted as saying in an emailed statement.

“Instead of facing this horrific condition head-on with community-based solutions for this human carnage of African-American children, this mayor wants to talk about how the murder rate is going down. Who’s buying that, given what we just witnessed this weekend?”
