Emanuel spoke with Blago “on multiple occasions” about Senate seat>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Does a bear shite in the woods?

Obama wants "HIS" man in his old "Community Worker"Senate seat, ( Betcha he be black, not that it matters in some sense but in the community worker ACORN sense it does).

Why? Greasing the rails for the PORK train that is about to happen for Chicago's Affirmative Action/Black Power/Bill Ayers/Communist come Fascist/ left wing moon bats, who are royally pi$$ed at the ONE for not fulfilling his lefty promises in his so-far-announced policies and cabinet appointments from the Obama Orifice of the President Erect.

( Hey! There is no Orifice of the President Erect in the Constitution, I have absolutely ZERO respect for it, and besides, I own guns, so I am not politically correct and am unqualified to particiate in the Obama Utopia of brave New World Big Brother and Soylent Green,..... thank you , thank you, Lord!)

If Obama is this crooked before he takes office can you imagine what it will be like for four long years?!

He's crooked enough to have made a downpayment on 2012 with the un-audited $700+M in the war-chest, and more pouring in via the "change.org" website.

If you think Clinton was in campaign mode 24/7 (selling secrets to the ChiComs, selling seats on economic junkets, renting out the Lincoln bedroom, foreign bundlers) you ain't seen nuthin' yet.

Chicago comes to Wash DC with all the stench with it. It's the only thing his crew knows. They can't help it. The secret handshake is the outstretched palm (what's in it for me?).

The Clinton II administration with it’s opening “Whitewater Scandal”.

Gotta start off on a good foot now. LOL

How long until Rahm gets thrown under the bus.

Rahm Emanuel’s silence in the last few days is deafening . . . and is likely an indication that he thinks his own voice is on about 1 out of every 3 Blagojevich phone calls the Feds have tapped in the last six months — if not longer.

Rahm took Blago’s seat in Congress. He’s played the game before.

The Office of the President-elect has been forever tarnished.

Yes, the first and the last Office of the President-elect.

Unfortunately I’m afraid everyone who is guilty will cut a plea, and the evidence (tape recordings) will get buried as part of the deal.

But we’ll know by who takes deals who was guilty. Expect some people to fall on their swords. But if Obama is on tape making a “deal” he can’t really plea his way out. But watch Rahm, and Jackson, and others. If they fall on their swords then they will obviously be doing it to protect Obama... when clearly their alleged involvement should taint him. It’s not like Rahm or Axelrod were talking to Blago “on their own time”.

I do like that the federal government is out there watching these politicians, running wiretaps, etc. It cuts to both parties but poltical corruption is something no American should stand.

But, of course, Rahmbo is “not a target,” right?

I hate this guy’s smirk. I hope it gets wiped off. I would love to see him looking whipped.

There is a cancer on the Office of the President-Elect.

They absolutely do not want to answer ANY questions.

Why should they? They don't know anything about this. They had heard that Blago was elected governor, but they were just too busy to talk to him about anything. They weren't even sure what he looked like. /s

< sarc > “Umm uh, when I said that no one on my staff um, had contact with Blagojevich, um, what I was refering to was, um, direct conversations about selling, um, I mean appointing any particular person to my vacant US Senate seat. Of course there were casual conversations with the, um, former Gov. but noting specific. Um, thats what I meant. Um, Really!” /sarc

Mark Levin reported today that there is NO ONE from the Obama team scheduled to appear on any of the Sunday shows.

And were it a Republican, there would not be enough Sunday shows to handle all of the questions.

This is hugh and series. BHO may become lame before ever taking office. Americans do not want a crook for their POTUS, ask Nixon....

...In his statement, President GW Bush pardoned ACORN, Obama, Emanuel, and then fired every US Attorney associated with the case.... Sen. Harry Reid and Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi urged the President to fire every FBI agent who had participated in the prosecution of Governor Rod Blagojevich (D). The President promptly agreed.

Shortly after this meeting, the Democrats began impeachment proceedings against President Bush for, among many counts, war crimes.

“...and Obama prevented her from suffering the slow death that so many seniors experienced during the Bush years.”

And she no longer had to subsist on dog food and dirty, polluted water caused by Bush's refusal to accept the Kyoto Protocol.

If Fitzgerald has Emanuel on tape — either negotiating for the Senate seat or even listening to Blago’s demands, and Emanuel is not the person who told Fitzgerald about the scheme —(and he’s not acting like he is) — will anyone believe Obama knew nothing about it? Will Emanuel escape indictment? Will Obama escape indictment? Imagine how the people on the grand jury will feel.
