“He mentioned Rahm approached him to suggest a way around the state legislature to get done one of the many things he had on his laundry list.
It sounded like setting a precedence and a shot across the bow for the Obama team. lol! “
..
Ping! ... if you missed it Blago mentions Rahm in the presser. Warning shot! :)

I don’t know why the dems are being so aggressive about his impeachment. They throw him out, he’s really going to start talking. I bet he already has actually with his lawyer. The dems are digging themselves a huge hole with the way they have dealt with the Blago and Burris fiasco. I pray that there are connections back to Obama and the transition team. Then, let the real impeachment hearings start.

"I believe it was late 2003 or early 2004, an idea that was brought to me by then-Congressman Rahm Emanuel, who suggested that since the big pharmaceutical companies had a tremendous amount of sway with the FDA, ... that maybe we should try something different and go to Canada ... We did that in Illinois, being the first state in America to defy the FDA and the big drug companies."Here's the verbage from the transcripts. I think he is trying to establish as fact that Rahm Emanuel comes to him with ideas.
This is for his future reference if needed.

Interesting. I caught the tail end of it and some Tennyson poem. Blago sure likes poetry...lol. Maybe he can be Chicago’s poet laureate after his stint as Gov. is over....LOL
