Community Organizing

Preparing for the mayor to stick a golden shovel in and take a picture.

“What makes community organizing especially attractive is the faith it places in the ability of the poor to make decisions for themselves.”
Paul Wellstone

Dear Mrs. Palin…Fuck You….

Community organizing is a process by which people are brought together to act in common self-interest and compel others to join them. While organizing describes any activity involving people interacting with one another in a formal manner, much community organizing is in the pursuit of a common agenda. Many groups seek populist goals and the ideal of participatory democracy.

Here are some community organizers you may be familiar with:

Martin Luther King Jr.
William Wallace
Paul Revere, John Adams, John Hancock and the Sons of Liberty
The Goddamn FOUNDING FATHERS OF THIS COUNTRY
The Newsboys of 1899

Shut your dumb ass up. Community Organizer do that work that people like you and McCain come and take pictures in front of for publicity. Community organizers thwarted you as mayor when you tried to fire that Librarian. I pray you get eaten by a polar bear…that is all.

Even the young ones are hungry.

  3. Hey…don’t be too sure that she’d be familiar with any of those community organizers; she’s been flubbing up her history lessons throughout her nomination…and she’s only been on for a WEEK!

  7. The republicans are unreal. They can see the writing on the wall. They will say and do anything now.

  8. At its core I think it is also the subtext, understated, play on race. With “community organizer” portrayed as if it were an unaccountable whim to give turkey’s to some poor people.
    Just seems very coded.
