No kidding. What’s he supposed to do? Admit it?
If this story is true, it will have to be pulled out of him like a bad tooth.
Jackson Jr. said he was asked to meet with the FBI and would do so after talking to his lawyer.
I heard on Fox News yesterday that there are so many lawyers with “connections” in Illinois it’s tough for these guys to find a lawyer to represent them who doesn’t have “history”. Ha!
It’s only been a day and things are unraveling already. Obama denies ever meeting with Blagojevich. Then the word comes out that Axelrod says he did. Then the Obama camp and Axelrod claim Axelrod “mispoke”. Then it’s shown in stories on November 5th & 8th that Obama indeed did meet Blagojevich, possibly at the office of a common campaign contributor. Then a news story surfaces about Durbin acting as a go-between between the two camps on the Senate seat issue. All this in one day. What’s a lying crook gonna do? I tall ya, it’s just not fair.
I actually thought that maybe he was working with the FBI but I’m beginning to think that he isn’t or he’d come out and admit it to save face. Ooops, he’s screwed.
I’m sure that the FBI’s wiretap transcripts will reveal the truth very soon, and Jesse Jr. will ultimately be sharing some cell space with Blagovejich and Ryan for bribery and lying to federal investigators.
