His excuse: "I was only going to use the money to buy vowels for my poor South Slav brothers!"
I’d like to see a plea deal where he spills his guts on 0bama, Rezko, Daley, etc.
There’s nothing new here. Chicago politics has always been “pay to play”. And it has carried to the state level for as long as I can remember. Blago’s simply more inept at it than other politicians.
I’ll bet Hussein was about to make a deal with the Gov.....Fitz arrested quickly to prevent Obama from making the buy.
Blagojevich is said to have a beautiful voice. I’d love to hear him sing.
Nothing to see here, move along please. Change is coming.
His excuse: "I was only going to use the money to buy vowels for my poor South Slav brothers!"
One of these days, they might catch someone who has the goods on 0bama-which would be the mother of get out of jail free cards. If that happens, flash forward to 1/20/13, when Prez Plugs oogles Sarah Louise Heath Palin as she is sworn in as the 45th POTUS.
dirty Democrook. like Dodd, Frank, Rangel, Jefferson, Schumer, Reid, Pelousey. Really cleaning things up good are we Nancy?? Strange only a Republican is the only one of your ilk shown the boot and the cell till this DemoCrook Governor.
corruption will bring them down. They know nothing else.
The bigger question is? What did Barack Hussein know and when did he know it? After all the office of the President elect has been briefed by the justice dept. And Barack Hussein pulled his hand picked replacement out of the running.
Does this mean before someone like Jesse Jackson Jr. paid for the seat and would have had to be arrested too? Gotta keep Illinois blue no matter what.
The funniest part of this story for me is that a governor with a 4% approval rating was thinking about using a Senate seat as possible leverage for running for PRESIDENT in 2016.
I owe this guy some personal thanks for all the entertainment he’s given me this morning. If we’re gonna have crooked public servants, it’s great to have them be this stupid and careless.
This is starting to look similar in many ways to the Clintons and “Arkansas politics”. I’ll bet the shredders are working overtime in Chicago right now.
..since Obambi's gonna help Hilda recover 5 million, Blago better stay clear of going to parks,...but morons being morons
bump
The daily kooks are reporting that 0bama and Rahm Emanual brought down Blogo. If they did, Blogo would have every motivation in the world to bring down 0bama. I would not be surprised if the Clintons’ PIs are not arriving at Ohare this very minute. This could be the openning the Hildebeast needs to run in ‘12.
“a position at which he obviously learned nothing, especially nothing about wiretaps”
Really, is this not the media’s fault? I mean, c’mon, if the media ignored the Illinois local democrats talk about maybe having to impeach Blogo before the 2008 election for the sake of their party (which didn’t come to be), and ignored the Rezko deal whereby 300K dollars was transferred to Obama in a weird real estate deal, why shouldn’t Blogo not think his phone lines were clean? There’s no story, right?
Anyway, Fitz has job security now.
Or will the Messiah can him anyway?
So much for "choice".
I hope he gets plenty of time to think about his fascist, murdering policies when he's banged up in the hoosegow.
So whats this say about Our Wonderful President-Elect?
Is Zero Hussein the only HONEST POLITICIAN in this corruptist of All Cities and States(per FBI Special Agent)?
Will Zero tell us he knew nothing about this PAY TO PLAY, even though Zero rocketed to the top of this perverted corrupt Dysentera of Cesspool Scum?
Will Zero tell us Zero is soo stupid he didn’t know this was going on? like his Hatemongering Spiritual Advisor and Mentor?
Just askin?? Any Trolls out there ready to freak out over this and flame me?
