For anyone that does not know that 'p'resident elect Marxist Imam Obama is painted with the same Chicago Political Tar-Brush as Blagojevich, the "Brooklyn Bridge" is For Sale if your interested.

“At the moment it seems clear that Barack Obama has had no direct involvement in the growing scandal involving Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich, but nothing can remove the stench of Chicago politics that engulfs Obama thanks to his appointments of the Chicago Three.”
I don’t know that...I believe and this is my own opinion, OBAMA IS UP TO HIS EARS IN THIS MESS.
I wonder how clear Obama actually is about the corruption. He comes across as a rookie who is just going along with his puppeteers. Anyone?
“There is no question of Valerie Jarrett’s association with the Daley Machine. She once served as Richard Daley’s chief of staff and has been described as a key cog in the Daley Machine. That fact alone disqualifies her from serving in the post of advisor to the president of the United States.”
Is this the same Valerie who hired Michele Obama as an assistant to the chief of staff?
Way to go!
“At the moment it seems clear that Barack Obama has had no direct involvement in the growing scandal involving Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich”
I think it’s clear that the above is not clear at all and I’d like to see conservative writers stop feeling the need to preface every piece they write with it.

(referring to the first Mayor Daley): (member of Blues Brothers band, working at a fancy restaurant): "No, sir, Mayor Daley no longer dines here. No, sir, he's dead, sir."
I hear Blago is an Elvis fan. From the end of the Blues Brothers:
"Everybody in the whole cell block is dancin' to the jailhouse rock"
“I have updated my link to include the telephone number for Blago’s office. The guy who answered when I called sounded surprised that I was calling in support of the governor. I say we give some encouragement to this guy who obviously is being scapegoated to protect Obama.”
Blago needs to hold firm ... a few more leaks would be appreciated, too. :)
Let us now join in the hymn
O Rahm, O Rahm, Emanuel...
“At the moment it seems clear that Barack Obama has had no direct involvement in the growing scandal involving Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich ...”
WRONG!
Thanks for the encouraging words. Without them I might have stopped after posting one link but because you encouraged me I took it a step further, located the telephone number to Blago's office and called in my support. The fellow who answered the phone sounded disheartened, then surprised when I said I was calling in support of the governor. I think we can really make a difference if Blago gets word that people from all over the country are calling in support because we believe he is being scapegoated.
Here is a new link which includes the phone number:
Called and talked to a woman who thanked me for my support. I called the Chicago number (312).
Thanks Maggie. I'm not even going to ask you what the "f" stands for. I hope it stands for call the Fn' Governor and tell him not to quit.
Maybe I am being silly but I really think this is a great idea. And someone mentioned that if Blago stays in he could really blow everyone's minds by appointing Alan Keyes to take Obama's seat.
“Valerie Bowman Jarrett (born November 14, 1956) is a Chicago lawyer, businesswoman, and civic leader. She is best known for her role as an advisor to President-Elect Barack Obama. Jarrett has been appointed a senior advisor in the incoming Obama administration. She is currently serving as a co-chairperson of the Obama-Biden Transition Project.
“Chosen for: White House Senior Advisor and Assistant to the President for Intergovernmental Relations and Public Liaison. Ms. Jarrett is also co-chairwoman of the Obama transition team.
“Will bring to the job: Experience in negotiation, persuasion and conflict resolution; a long record of outreach to the African-American community; fierce, almost familial loyalty to Mr. Obama and his wife, Michelle, both of whom she has helped work through decisions and fix problems. No Washington experience.”
YET KNOWING THAT JARRETT WANTED HIS SENATORIAL JOB, OSAMA CLAIMS NO INVOLVEMENT? Who is the jerk trying to convince? ROTFLMAO at the abursidity!
“Obama has chosen three long-time associates, David Axelrod, Rahm Emanuel and Valerie Jarrett, to fill key posts in his administration. All are products of the scandal-ridden Richard Daley machine that dominates the city’s politics, and by virtue of that fact alone they are unfit to serve in top White House posts. “
I odn’t think he has a choice. He wouldn’t be where he is today without the Chicago machine.
