Obama To Build His Victory Mosque on the Site of Reagan’s Childhood Home?
The Chicago home where the late President Ronald Reagan grew up is slated to be demolished and potentially turned into a parking lot for President Obama’s Library, it was revealed today.
The home, at 832 E. 57th Street, was where Reagan survived a near-fatal bout of pneumonia in 1915 and he has written fondly of playing in the Hyde Park neighborhood with his brother and others.
But the University of Chicago has recently purchased the apartment building and they have announced plans to raze it and make it a parking lot.
Some have said that the liberal Chicago establishment does not want a reminder that Reagan, a conservative icon, once lived in the city.
Its current mayor, Rahm Emmanuel, was the White House Chief of Staff during Obama’s first term.
Hyde Park Historical Society board member Jack Spicer said, ‘Whatever you think of Reagan — once the building’s gone, it’s gone forever.’
The elite university has begun aggressively lobbying to become the site for President Obama’s future Presidential Library, leaving some to wonder if the parking spaces are being built to accommodate future visitors, the Washington Times reported.

I hear they are also bulldozing Mount Vernon to make room for an Indian casino.

Funny how some sagging ramshackle barn where Cesar Chavez or Harriet Tubman may have once taken a piss can become a historical landmark in 30 seconds.

What, not enough room at the local landfill?
On second thought, probably not after eight years of Executive Orders.

Oh, you just know the commies are giggling about this. Until I got to the part about the U of Chicago owning it, the thought crossed my mind that Sarah could step in and buy it!

After he pissed on Reagan’s grave, what was left for him to do?

If he is from Russia,build it there.
We don’t know a damn thing about this clown. Where is he from? It ain’t this country.

A parking lot for a disgraced President’s Library? Don’t make me laugh.
A couple of meters on the sidewalk out front would be -more than adequate- for all the visitors.
How long would the cleaning crew be there each week? An hour, tops? Four quarters would buy more than enough meter time.

What could possibly be in that library? He never released his records.
Perhaps a beard collection…

Why doesn’t he just build it at 5017 N. Clark Street? Sort of like the Clinton Presidential Library and Massage Parlor, as Rush calls it.

These people have no boundaries. The want him on Mount Rushmore. In their minds they would take down Washington to make room for boo. If it goes far enough they would take down the Statue of Liberty and replace it with this:
Colossus of Obama.
The Colossus was an enormous bronze sculpture of the sun god Obama built by the Liberals over 12 years in the years 2013 to 2025. The country was the target of a Muslim siege early in the twenty first century A.D.. and, according to legend, the Liberals sold the tools and equipment left behind by the Republicans to pay for the Colossus. Designed by the sculptor Jarret, the statue was, at 100 feet, the tallest of the modern world. It was completed around 2025 A.D. and stood for sixty years until it was toppled in an earthquake. It was never rebuilt. Hundreds of years later, Arabs again invaded America and sold the remains of the statue as scrap metal. Because of this, archeologists do not know much about the exact location of the statue or what it looked like. Most believe that it depicted the sun god standing naked while he lifted a torch with one hand and held a spear in the other. It was once believed that the statue stood with one leg on each side of a harbor, but most scholars now agree that the statue’s legs were most likely built close together because he had no balls and to support its immense weight.
I hate these people, and there false god.

I wish the Republicans would ‘Raze’ Cain, but that won’t happen. Just another poke in the eye to Conservatives.

Good lord.:(
Thank goodness the Young America’s Foundation bought the Reagan Ranch or some libtard group would have so they could have demolish the house, filled the lake and covered the land with wind mills and solar panels.

They should have turned Bill Clinton’s home in Hope, Arkansas into a whorehouse so the hillbillies wouldn’t have to drive all the way to Texarkana on the weekends. Instead they honor the impeached liar/rapist with a National Historic Site.

Well, isn’t that what muzzies do when they conquer their enemies? Destroy their enemy and build a mosque. Destroy the building where his conservative enemy Reagan lived and build a library. Makes sense coming from the liebarryan.

@Bad Brad, I hope you are right. Nothing ever seems to happens to these pieces of garbage.
