How does a MAYOR not know what a community organizer does?
And, more importantly, why would someone who made his name working at the "local" level MOCK one? I was incensed.

2. The base of the GOP hate community organizers
They see people who organize community functions as being disruptors. That's why they prefer to donate their time at the country club.

3. She mocks average Americans with this swill
Members of our local PTA's, Kiwanis Clubs, Urban Development Associations all do Community Organizing on some level. This kind of rhetoric insults us all. I hope they don't get away with this kind of crap.

6. Well, when 617 people vote you in, how many people are there to organize and for what cause?

7. She knows exactly what they are, and she hates them.
Community organizers fill in and bring to light the gaping holes left by failed government policies.

11. Depends on which mayor you mean
Two Repuke mayors were using that talking point last night. Now I can almost understand Tundra Barbie's confusion, because there's not much of a community to organize where she comes from. But Rudy 9u11ani definitely should know better.

13. Repeat after me: They. Will. Say. A. NY. THING. In this case, even mocking "faith-based" work!
