In a letter to the Chicago Tribune, Charles F. Falk of Schaumburg, Illinois, agreed Mr. Obama deserves “a public monument of some kind that recognizes his undeniable achievements.” A symbolic open sewer into which money is constantly shoveled just might work.
But Falk asked if the “mini-Disneyland/Obamaland” would not be better placed “in a locale where it would improve a neighborhood instead of tearing up” Jackson Park, “an established treasure.” Perhaps the Kremlin would be open to moving West to Chicago to honor Obama’s lack of capitalistic accomplishments.
We think Chicago should relocate or scrap the Obama Center. If scrapped, the tens of millions of tax dollars not spent on infrastructure for the center would pay for a simple Obama monument and a small plastic plaque harmlessly placed on a lowdown post in Jackson Park.
