Emanuel Was Director Of Freddie Mac During Scandal (A "Deep Throat" is lurking in his shadows)
ABC News ^ | November 7th, 2008 | By BRIAN ROSS and RHONDA SCHWARTZ

Emanuel was not named in the SEC complaint (click here to read) but the entire board was later accused by the Office of Federal Housing Enterprise Oversight (OFHEO) (click here to read) of having "failed in its duty to follow up on matters brought to its attention."

For the first time I'm wondering if Obama's gonna toss him under the bus, or if he'll be Clinton-like defiant.

Obama doesn't seem to stand his ground on the issues--if he has any backbone, it has to be about loyalty. But if he bailed on his reverend, what chance has Rahm got?

Emmanuel, Frank, Dodd, Obama, Blago..... Anyone want to take up Diogenes’ lamp and search for one good man (person) in our political class? The corruption seems to be systemic and endemic and our votes seems to count for nothing (see the Minnesota senate race and circus surrounding the successor to Hillary Clinton in New York). I’m sick of the entire bunch and ready to secede the Union.

It's not funny, but I can't help myself--this kind of thing makes me laugh at the sheer self-duplicity of Obama's followers. I have been hearing from so many telling me I can't judge him, he's not become president yet. What, I can't judge him on his embarassing picks for this cabinet? I can't judge his choice of Emmanuel, especially after his "investigation" which showed no wrongdoing on the part of his staff, immedialtely followed by a report that Emmanuel DID have contact with Blogo?

I've said this before, but I am shocked at how quickly Obama's administration is heading into the dumper.

This will be interesting. Looks like Emannual might be going down. But also looks like he could take obama with him. Now that’s a problem.

For the first time I'm wondering if Obama's gonna toss him under the bus...

I wondered that too at first... I thought he would as soon as it came out about Rahm's contact with Blago... but since it didn't happen, I wonder now if Rahm knows something that Obama doesn't want to get out so he has no choice but to stand by him.

Let’s hope there are steel-spined Republicans ready to run for the House in 2010. Real men who understand the US Constitution, the free market, apple pie, etc.
Obama will implode. Running a campaign is not the same as the ship of state. He’s already taking water. One year in and he’s under water.

That's not hope, that's delerium (or an idea for a 1930s screenplay.)
