Grim proving ground for Obama's housing policy

CHICAGO - The squat brick buildings of Grove Parc Plaza, in a dense neighborhood that Barack Obama represented for eight years as a state senator, hold 504 apartments subsidized by the federal government for people who can't afford to live anywhere else.

Grim proving ground for Obama's housing policy

Interesting story op. Seems that as more an more comes out, Obama isn't turning out to be the person he portrays himself to be.

I got a feeling something big is coming down the pipe and Obama isn't going to like the attention.

Just seems that there are too many shady dealings. And usually where there's smoke, there's fire.

Unfortunately it is the same in most big cities...
The jobs dry up the small businesses flee.
The reason there is subsidized housing in these wasteland houses
is because the districts try to keep these places afloat.

Anyhow seems you have joined the dog pile.

I hope you have checked JohnMccain.com and really understand what you will be voting for.

I hope you can afford 7,000 - 12,000 out of pocket for health insurance once your job provided insurance phases out?

I cannot

Once again I hope you UNDERSTAND what you are voting for...
