"This is nothing more than a political land grab," Congressman Jason Chaffetz, R-Utah, said of Barack Obama’s Chicago-style political decision to bring the influential role of conducting the U.S. Census under White House influence.
This single act should end any further bipartisanship. Obama is executing raw power politics as taught by his role model, leftist Chicago organizer Saul Alinsky.
Alinsky pioneered this in-your-face style of political move. Practically, this means that Rahm Emanuel, the White House Chief of Staff and the former Democratic congressional campaign chairman -- who has tax problems, ethics problems and negotiated with impeached Gov. Rod Blagojevich -- will be in charge of the process that determines congressional redistricting and the makeup of the Electoral College."
