"Obama victory bash owes city $1.74 mil." begins:Chicago has yet to recoup the $1.74 million cost of President Obama's victory celebration in Grant Park -- despite a burgeoning $50.5 million budget shortfall that threatens more layoffs and union concessions. |

#5 The Democrats were spending to stimulate the Chicago economy. With the famous 1.5 multiplier the stimulus more than paid for itself with increased economic activity. The DNC doesn't need to acually pay for the stimulus. |

#4 Yep. Entirely consistent. Non payment of taxes a la Daschle, Geithner, Killefer, Polis [husband], and non payment of bills. The late Queen of Mean, Leona Helmsley's statement to the effect that "Only the little people pay taxes" has been modified by these charlatans a little but essentially "taxes and bills are for everyone else including the next generation". |

#3 Dems don't have to pay their bills; that privilege is reserved only for those with a sense of morals and obligation...in other words those who work for their money. |
