The White House Loses Rahm-bo

The White House is a little less bad-ass today as Chief of Staff, Rahm Emanuel has left his post to pursue a mayoral campaign in Chicago.  He is a tough-as-nails politician who knew when to "f*ck the left" and compromise and get shit done. Trust me, if it weren't for Rahm Emanuel we would not have ANY version of healthcare reform that we have today.  He also knew how crazy and ideological our nation's capital of Washington, DC had become, nicknaming it, correctly in my opinion, "F*cknutsville."  Also, most importantly, he was a NU WILDCAT! 

Let's take a look at Rahm's amazing resume.

- Had to have part of his middle finger amputated after severely cutting it in an Arby's meat slicer and choosing to go swimming in Lake Michigan over going to the hospital - Bad-ass
- Intensely studied ballet at the Evanston School of Ballet and the Joffrey Ballet - being secure in one's masculinity - Bad-ass
- Going to a formerly all-women's college Sarah Lawrence so he could study ballet - Bad-ass
- Getting his Masters degree in Communication from Northwestern University - Awesome and Bad-ass
- Joining the Israeli Defense Force in the first Gulf War in 1991 - BAD-ASS
- Running the Democratic congressional campaigns in 2006 and 2008 helping them comeback to power on a strategy of a bigger tent (i.e. pro-life and pro-gun Dems)- Just SMART



Rahm, you will be missed. Is the Ragin' Cajun available?
