#daleyruinedeverything Twitter campaign

Post a Twitter describing (in less that 140 characters) one of the terrible consequences of Daley’s policies and include the hashtag #daleyruinedeverything
The mainstream media loves to say ‘how wonderful was Daley, The Uniter, The One-Who-Eliminated-Racism, The Saver of Schools, The Great White Founder of Millenium Park.’

What a pile of crap.

Take heart and participate in an easy Twitter campaign that also makes for a fun past-time. Here’s the deal:
Post a Twitter describing (in less that 140 characters) one of the terrible consequences of Daley’s policies and include the hashtag #daleyruinedeverything

Here are some fun examples already out there:
- He spent public money to prosecute peaceful protesters #daleyruinedeverything
- For decades, he hid police torture and prosecuted the innocent #daleyruinedeverything
- He stole millions from the schools and gave it to his rich real estate friends #daleyruinedeverything
- He served the Commerce Club and dismantled the public schools #daleyruinedeverything
- He leased the parking meters for 99 years and spent all the money in 1 year #daleyruinedeverything
- He’s a crook who thinks he’s a king #daleyruinedeverything
- He looted the city and left us high and dry #daleyruinedeverything

This simple action is based on the very popular Twitter action “Scott Baio Ruins Everything”* where (eventually) thousands of people posted condemning (and funny) digs at the homophobic, racist, right-wing, celebrity mo-ron that is Scott Baio. In fact, this tag became one of the most popular on Twitter. Due to the #scottbaioruinseverything Twitter action even mainstream media reported on Baio’s chauvinism.
