Obama's Chief of Staff Refuses to Go to Work Because of Media Stakeout
The President-elect's chief of staff, Rahm Emanuel, said today he won't go to the Chicago Presidential transition offices in order to avoid reporters seeking to ask him whether he had contact with Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich about the Senate seat vacated by Barack Obama's election.
Emanuel appeared "beet-red," according to an ABC News cameraman who was invited inside by Emmanuel to use his bathroom this morning.
"I'm getting regular death threats. You've put my home address on national television. I'm pissed at the networks. You've intruded too much, " Emanuel said, according to the cameraman.
Emanuel has refused to comment as to whether he is the un-named Presidential advisor cited in the FBI affidavit filed in the Blagojevich case.

Emanuel: This unwanted media attention is killing me.
Tough. Deal with it.
Hmmm..., somehow he looks like he could be the Antichrist... :-)
Republicans are laughing our arses off, lol!
Someone call a waaaaaaahmbulance!
AAAAWWWWWW! Poor little Rahmy.
“I’m getting regular death threats. You’ve put my home address on national television. I’m pissed at the networks. You’ve intruded too much, “ Emanuel said, according to the cameraman.
Well, Mr. Emanual, if you don’t know how to handle it, perhaps you can talk to Sarah Palin and Joe the Plumber for pointers on handling personal privacy invasions. Remember them?
You reap what you sow.
From Blagojevich ?................
1. “I’m not being permitted to be a father, and so I’m a victim”
2. “I’m getting death threats, and so I’m a victim”
Can’t stand the heat, get your tukas in a tutu out of the kitchen.............
“I’m getting regular death threats. You’ve put my home address on national television. I’m pissed at the networks. You’ve intruded too much, “ Emanuel said, according to the cameraman.
Poor Rambo.
Lets all do something nice for him, just to cheer him up!
Send Rahm a dead fish, I hear he’s fond of such things....
lol
This is funny. The msm are really making Rahm mad. Wait ‘til he breaks out his knife and starts stabbing it in the air saying “kill”, “kill”, “kill”.
Of course, the news media could also be stalking the Pres Elect but they wouldn’t dare ask their Messiah a question about this.
My money’s on he’s lying to get sympathy.
hahahahaha!
Hey Rahm those *cough* threats *cough* are coming from YOUR party!
If any threats were actually made, check the Obama sheep who are waiting for gas in their tank and their mortgage to get paid.
If it’s your boss telling you not to talk or else, is it a death threat? What if it’s your former boss and his wife telling you to squeal on your new boss or else?
Start dancing ballerina boy.
Boo hoo. Little boy needs a hug?
Oh, poor Rahm.. Frankly, the whole scandal appears that it could have been generated if Rahm had his eye on getting the senate seat for himself and all of this is payback for being spurned. My sense is that Rahm is testing his boundaries by seeing how much mischief he can generate and how far he can go to control the Senate and soon-to-be Governor positions for Illinois.
Who’s he getting death threats from? Michelle Obama?
