Sources Say Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. is 'Senate Candidate #5' (BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!)

No he hasn’t.....the MSM is COVERING UP the FACT that he had a MEETING with BLAGO on Nov 5 to DISCUSS the SENATE seat!!

[JrsyJack]

This has got to be a record even for Dems, a scandal plagued administration before the inauguration.

They can change the oath of office to read; "Do you promise to tell the truth the whole truth and nothing but the truth, so help you God?"

Ping me and we’ll have a sing a long!

From page #2 of the ABC link: "U.S. Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald said 'there's no reference in the complaint to any conversations involving the president-elect or indicating that the president-elect was aware of it, and that's all I can say.'"

This was commented on in another thread yesterday, but there's a fair amount of parsing in this statement. No, there's no reference "in the complaint" about conversations that included Obama, but that doesn't mean Fitzgerald doesn't have that information yet off the table. It's the "and that's all I can say" remark that's most telling.

Morning retrokitten. I knew I was leaving someone off my ping list this morning. I apologize. Not enough coffee yet.

Washington Post in full spin mode now...LOL

maggief posted an article yesterday from the WP from awhile back (during the wiretapping) where they curiously started trying to distance Obama from Blago by inserting this wierd sentence in an article that ‘Obama and Blago were not close’...lol

maggie...do you remember where that article is on FR? It would be great to post it in this thread:

or better yet at the comment section at the WP.....LOL!!

Now why would the Trib run the story on 12/05, just as the deal is about to go down. We know Blago was about to send message #3 to Team 0, via Sneed and the Sun Times, dropping JJJ’s name as a top contender.

Wait, you mean Obama misspoke? Or Axelrod misspoke about his misspeak?

[Joe Boucher]

Pretty disappointed,
I went on your personal page hoping to see pictures of a “LesbianThespianGymnasticMidget”, damn.

[Ann Archy]

He LIED and the MSMS are covering up for his lies!!

Ha - white boy trying to jack up the black man..that should go over well in the pokey....(oh, I just realized why it is called the pokey..)

[popdonnelly]

Where’s the race card when you need it?

[demsux]

Can't wait for Blago to cut a deal for less jail time...

Wonder who he'll roll over on???

[WhyisaTexasgirlinPA]

Someone please check the Rainbow books - I’m thinking they just cancelled a big check...

[Neverforget01]

He LIED and the MSMS are covering up for his lies!!

I LOVE FR and the internet. The lies can't stay hidden forever.

[goodnesswins]

GEE...wonder how much a Secretary of State goes for....or the Health & Human Services Seat....how about the head of the Commerce Department.....Chicago and Arkansas mafia’s running our country....swell.

[NoPrisoners]

Let's...Love Client #9, Candidate #5, Certificate of Live Birth #2...

Is there a pattern here?

[Eagle of Liberty]

The rag newspaper in my area does not even have this as a headline. If it were a Republican it would be a full front page! The Messiah is in a mess and the paper ignores it.

And on Yahoo and Time Warner's home pages, Blago does NOT show up as a Top Internet Search. You gotta be kidding me.

Yahoo's Top Searches:

Jennifer Tilly
Monica Keena
The Dark Knight DVD
Stocking Stuffers
John Mayer
Oprah Winfrey
Portable DVD Players
2009 Nissan Cube
Christmas Appetizers

“asked me to come in and share with them my insights and thoughts about the selection process.”

These politicians sure have a way with words.

This guy Fitz is walking down liberal hall, turning on the lights one at a time, exposing the corruption that serves as the fertilizer for future democrat power grabs.

Every chain has a "weakest link", and one of those links is going to break and release a mountain of information.

Now, I'm not saying obama is involved in this, not at all. I have no proof. I'm just saying that I will be very surprised if he isn't.

He comes from this "environment" of Chicago politics, the row IS over his recently vacated senate seat, among other things. He's already lied and said he hasn't talked to the Governor, when there is proof otherwise, and they both have ties to Tony Rezzo (sp?).

And now this connection to JJjr.

I need a little extra butter on that popcorn please, this is going to be good.
