In the midst of two wars and an intensifying economic meltdown, Barack Obama had to take time off last week to answer questions from federal prosecutors investigating charges that the governor of Illinois had put the president-elect's former Senate seat up for sale. With his own lawyer by his side, Obama sat down Thursday with U.S. Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald's staff to tell what, if anything, he knew about Gov. Rod Blagojevich's efforts to cash in on appointing Obama's Senate successor

I don’t think Soros will throw his spokesman under the bus. Without his spokesman as “Messiah” of the movement, Soros has little overt influence. Of course, the masses think like Soros does any way.
Harry Reid has said that only one acceptable to him can have a Senate appointment. He has also said that means no Coleman in MN. People in NV are nearly as uninformed as those in MA.
The MSM said his own team cleared BO.
Do not worry about him because he has all the departments of the Gov. in his pocket. He has the whole thing.
Yup, and lipstick on that pig won’t change a thing.
*******Fitzgerald has said that the investigation possesses tapes of Blagojevich calling Obama a MFer and complaining that Obamas endorsee has promised us nothing but gratitude. How does this information reflect poorly on the president-elect?*****
This information illustrates that there was a request for something and a promise to provide something (gratitude). So it follows that there was a discussion of quid pro quo and should have been reported (by the Obama envoy) as an invitation to participate in an illegal act!!!!!!!!!
BUT, did they ask him WHERE HE WAS BORN????

Guess which head will roll first in the “Justice” Department.
In the mean time, how many US Secrets will be sold or given away to our enemies? What unnecessary conflict will be be put into? This presidency is grim.
The damage will be bad, real bad. We’re already in trouble on so many levels, and he hasnt even taken office yet.
The question is whether the damage from the new administration with this Congress will be catastrophic and/or irreparable.
It most certain is, FA....
“Obama’s report, researched and written by his incoming White House lawyer, Greg Craig, states that he had no contact with Blagojevich or the governor’s staff about the appointment. And no one representing the president-elect did anything wrong or had any knowledge that Blagojevich was scheming, Obama’s report states.”
This official statement is to reassure us of his staff’s innocence and his veracity yet its authorship is explicitly credited to his lawyer; flash back a few weeks and remember that there were more than a few serious critics who, judging from the phrasing and the style of the writing maintained that his autobiography likely was ghost-written by his trusted political advisor, Bill Ayers.
In this instance, a ghost-writer is valuable as plausible denial at a future date; in the prior instance, a ghost-writer is damning as an admission of political manuevering toward a career of duplicity.
Who speaks with the true Obama voice?
He can’t pass an FBI check!
I keep waiting for the Karma Train to hit them all in the ass.
...sigh...I should live so long...
LOL, sure. I believe the connected rat lawyer who brought us this:
Good reminder for those who have forgotten who and what Greg Craig is. Clinton pond scum and Fidel ass-kisser.
Sure, I’m going to believe him!
I also believe that a fox entering a henhouse has nothing but good intentions.
Now that’s not exactly true. Yesterday he played golf, and today he went swimming.
My money’s on Catastrophic.
