Could Illinois Governor Blagojevich suffer the same fate as convicted former Governor George Ryan? Sources tell CBS 2 News Chicago that Federal agents claim to have enough evidence to indict Blagojevich on fraud and conspiracy charges. However, the report says the investigators aren't the ones who make the decision to prosecute. That would be up to U.S. Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald and the Justice Department in Washington.
You’re wrong about Fitzgerald. He’s been the scourge of corrupt Illinois politicians (gee, are there any other kind?) since the day he took office. Thank you for bringing him aboard, Sen. Peter Fitzgerald. The guy now sitting in your senate seat isn’t half the man you are.
Patrick Fitzgerald is PROTECTING Corrupt BLAGO.....he should have been idicted a long time ago with REZKO!
Fitzgerald has been pretty good at indicting corrupt Republicans, yes. And he railroaded Scooter Libby with bogus charges.
A highly placed source in Chicago told me in May that the Gov was going down and that others may go down with him. He also said that Rezko preferred to be in jail than walking the streets. Maybe that explains why Hussein is digging in in FL and wants to be out of sight.
This should be big news in the Pres. campaign. Chicago is so currupt..how could BO be clean?
bttt
Please save yourself the hope and anticipation. Ain’t gonna happen. I you think the democrat prosecuter is going to push this through before the election, or after, I have a bridge I’d like to sell you.
I sure hope you’re right. I suppose it depends on whether Fitz can block it until after the election.
Bush already had major trouble firing US Attorneys who weren’t doing their job, and he never managed to explain it to the public. So I doubt whether he can afford to replace Fitz.
