Pat Quinn, Lt Governor of Illinois, another Crook County Citizen. I wonder if they have installed wire tapping in his office as he is probably now taking bids on the filling of the Senate seat.
SunTimes was used to communicate messages according to the indictment....probably unknowingly.
No doubt. Durbin is probably taking bids now too....(eye roll)
I would love to see that happen.
Is he covering for Obama or gunning for him?
Great Graphic, potlatch
Merry Fitz-mas!
Ping.
Maybe there’s video coverage of his arrest. Hopefully, a Freeper will post it.
He’s talkin to the judge as we type.
Yeah, don’t forget about our Governor, Deval Patrick, aka Obama-lite.
Fitzgerald said in his news conference that they did this early in the morning to avoid a media circus and to avoid waking his children. His wife was awake. The FBI called his home, woke him up and said that they had a warrant for his arrest and there were two FBI agents waiting for him outside and he should go let them in. Blago asked the agent if this was a joke. Once told that this wasn’t, he was arrested without incident.
Now what I want to know is: What happened to his State Police bodyguards? Does the FBI call them ahead of time? Show up and flash badges and tell them to stand down? That’s a lot of guns at 6 AM in Ravenswood...
Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich peers from behind a coat, at upper right, as he is transported into the Dirksen Federal Building in Chicago, Tuesday, Dec. 9, 2008, after he was arrested on corruption charges.
What happened to his State Police bodyguards?
My guess is that the head of that ISP detail was on the phone at the same time talking to his commandant who had just been briefed by the FBI (woke him up, too, no doubt)
Turn over passports and released on $4500 bond.
FNC
It was his office in Chicago that was being served by a search warrant this morning.
Lol, thanks so much Iowan!
Merry Fitz-mas to you too.
