* 30 Bucks and a Hoagie

30 hour
Everywhere I went yesterday I found these unknown, no name precinct workers for David Fagus and Alderman Moore. Most of these workers wouldn't say who they were, but almost everyone said they "didn't (did not) live in the ward."

Get that, like the developers that feed the campaign coffers, these people are not from here.

That's not all I found out. Take this lady with the orange hair for example. It was just as orange as mine so we kinda hit it off. Anyhow, she didn't know who was on the blue hand-out card she was giving to voters as they came in. She told me she "didn't care" either. All she was there for was the quick fix money and something to eat. Not much at that even. As she put it "I get $30 bucks and a hoagie.... It's freezing cold out here, I shoulda stayed in bed!"

Craig, this is the way PROGRESSIVE Democrats provide for the poor of Chicagoland. Couldn't they fork out more than a measley $30 bucks and a hoagie? How much is in the Machine's War Chest? How much does van man earn?

i wonder do people have rights against having their picture taken without their consent? jeff-o said

The short answer is if they are in the public way they are fair game.

I contribute on a photo forum and shoot alot of "street " stuff. Lots of talk about that.

The decision is one of the photographer and what if any respect he/she wishes to afford. Currently a very touchy subject and a few high profile cases in New York have made the news lately.This tends to be accepted as Art. Craig on the other hand is venturing into the realm as a Photojournalist and that carries a whole host of responsibilities along with it.....



had this person had her pants down?.....well that is always possible round here! ;-)
