I heard tough boy (Rahm) then pushed his way by the reporter. I think Mr. F U Emmanual is going to be in a heap of trouble before this whole Chicago thing is over.

Blagojevch was caught on tape saying that he wanted the Obama advisor in question to know what Blagojevich wanted in exchange for the Jarrett appointment. Blagojevich said, “He asks me for the fifth CD thing, I want it to be in his head.” Emanuel represents the 5th Congressional District in Illinois.
Ok, how much did Rahm pay Blagojevich for that 5th CD?

Obama isn’t even elected and already his administration is immersed in scandal.
If the MSM had done its job, we’d have at least a vetted Pres-elect (McCain or Clinton). Now, the economy is tanking, and the Pres-elect is finally being vetted.

BFD. OBAMA refuses to take questions from any “reporters” not on his Official Reporter Suck-Up List. The press whores don’t seem to mind!
To: Pharmboy
Mr. Emanuel, you would have made Golda Mier anti-Semitic. Congratulations.
To: XR7
his words to the press trying to interview him sure sound TERSE for a man who should be relaxed and happy with a clear conscience attending a school program with his children in it....oh yeah, that’s right-he hasn’t gotten a lawyer yet;any lawyers left in CHicago that can handle his case?must of just done run outta’ lawyers out there.

Emanuel was uncharacteristically absent from Obama’s news conference this morning.

“You’re wasting your time,” Emanuel said. “I’m not going to say a word to you. I’m going to do this with my children. Dont do that. I’m a father. I have two kids. I’m not going to do it.” Asked, “Can’t you do both?” Emanuel replied, “I’m not as capable as you. I’m going to be a father. I’m allowed to be a father,” and he pushed the reporter’s digital recorder away.
The words of a coward, hiding behind his children.
I suppose he's going pull a Daily and suggest he did the dirty dealing to help provide for his children.

It appears the Obama team is past the stage of “modified limited hangout”, and deep into “desperate run for cover”!
