The Obama-Blago Connection
big journalism ^ | 6/27/11 | Ron Futrell

Posted on 06/27/2011 7:46:03 PM PDT by Nachum

The activist old media does not want to make this connection.

Barack Obama and Rod Blagojevich go way back. They emerged from the same cesspool that is Illinois/Chicago politics.

Obama and Rahm Emanuel helped run Blago’s first campaign for Governor of Illinois, which he has now thoroughly disgraced (if that is possible with the governorship of that state.)

Now that Blago has been convicted of trying to sell the “Obama Senate seat,” the media will work overtime to keep their beloved Dear Leader out of this. They might even try to make Obama a victim of sorts. Meanwhile, Obama played an integral role in making sure Blago got there in the first place. Obama was a “top advisor” to Blagojevich in the general election when he ran for governor in 2002.

I’ll give you $10 bucks for every time you hear the media mention that fact over the next couple days.

Emanuel says it was he and Obama who “were the top strategists of Blagojevich’s 2002 gubernatorial victory.” Thanks guys. Good job at putting Blago in office.

Great post, Nachum. Thanks. We need to get out from under these POS scumbag politicians. Blago can rot in hell. 2012 can’t come soon enough.

I was really hoping that something more would come out in evidence. Some Monica Lewinsky dress (or in this case, her brothers’)so-to-speak to be brought out in testimony.

I am really quite disappointed. The democRATs are doing a much better job of rigging the system. Unfortunately.

Yes, these criminals are very good at containing collateral damage within their ranks, yet from top to scum-sucking bottom they are rotten to the core.

Now that Blago has been dealt with, it’s on to Obozo (or should be).

What’s so unfortunate about Blago’s situation is that he’s headed to a federal facility. If he should decide to roll over on Obozo, Obozo’s “people” will make sure he’s found in the shower with a sharpened broomstick up his Obama.

I saw that idiot Fitzpatrick state that corruption would not be tolerated in Illinois anymore! Oh, really. Have you noticed Ex-Mayor Daly, good old Rahm, and the rest of Chicago government is not in jail?

Blago is going to Joliet. He will belong to some big guy named Bubba and be his bitch.

Isn't being a criminal a pre-requsite for holding public office in Illinois?

obama and media are co-conspirators in murder — murder of their own country — and every day I am astounded at how easily they’re getting away w/ it.

Why was the MSM so interested in going over each and every single email Sarah Palin ever sent in her life, but they carefully ignore Obama’s clear violation of the law when he arranged a $5million grant to the University of Chicago Medical Center, in turn for a $377,000.00 per year no-show job for his totally unqualified wife... a position that was so important, that it was eliminated entirely the moment they left town - no replacement was sought.

This stinks of a felony.
Why doesn’t anybody care?
