In a statement U.S. Senate candidate Andrew Romanoff (D-CO) was offered the possibility of three jobs by Jim Messina, the President’s deputy chief of staff.

The candidate says: In September 2009, shortly after the news media first reported my plans to run for the Senate, I received a call from Jim Messina, the President’s deputy chief of staff. Mr. Messina informed me that the White House would support Sen. Bennet. I informed Mr. Messina that I had made my decision to run.

Here is the email Messina sent to to Romanoff, describing three positions.

He added that he could not guarantee my appointment to any of these positions. At no time was I promised a job, nor did I request Mr. Messina’s assistance in obtaining one.

So, what does this mean?

Chicago thuggery, aka “business as usual,” at the Ubama Whore House.

You really need to provide the real source. You cannot just post something that is equivalent to WaterGate and not post the real and verifiable source.

Holy cow. I kind of dismissed the Sestak thing, but it may be the tip of the iceberg.

So we have Obama bribing people in two senate primaries in 2 states.

Tip of the iceberg I would guess.

Unfortunately, I think the worst that will happen is that he would be impeached, but not removed, just like Bubba. Congress doesn’t have the guts to do the right thing, as the cities would burn.

OK, then let someone posts it in breaking news with Time Magazine as the source. This is super huge.

I’d be willing to bet that these two are just the tip of the iceberg. We’re starting to see a pattern here. A lot of politicians, from both sides of the aisle, appear to be losing their love/fear of the “messiah”. That dog has no teeth!

Well, the Bilderberg meeting is coming up...maybe they are going to pull the plug on Obama and prop up old Joe..maybe let Hildebeast try it again in 2012.

That weekend in 2008 where Obama and Hillary disappeared ....just happened to be on Bilderberger weekend....would love to see those transcripts.

Thing is, before this is over, they may create new star in Bobby Jindal. Hopefully he is the real deal...but it is hard to tell these days.

Here's what Mr. Romanoff said:

Mr. Messina also suggested three positions that might be available to me were I not pursuing the Senate race. He added that he could not guarantee my appointment to any of these positions. At no time was I promised a job, nor did I request Mr. Messina’s assistance in obtaining one.

Sound more like he went out of his way to say he wasn't offered a job.

Romanoff was not offered jobs - - he was only offered the possibility of jobs. See?
The Ubama Whore House is clearly the most ethical Whore House since the Clintigula Administration.

Because I got the email also, therefore I posted it on my site.

Do I tell you what to do?
