These guys are experts at scrubbing docs and the web! It’s the biggest story around that will never be told.
I have a feeling it would involved more than rahm.
I just sent this to fox news because they won another foia demand not long ago.

Did I do something wrong or against policy? Why were all of the categories removed from this article?
A GOP candidate has zero chance of beating HUSEIN BARAKA in 2012 unless they go for broke and go all Joe McCarthy on the socialist government of the USSA.
Name names, take no prisoners, and destroy the propaganda arm of the left.
That means dirty tricks,enemies lists, and the balls to line up someone against a wall.
This is another Obama outrage.
The Fannie and Freddie frauds were also exempt from Sarbanes Oxley aka law to stop filing fraudulent financials. This was after Enron and Worldcomm and it has has turned out to be a pretty useless law.
We got us a dictator on our hands. He has unbelievable arrogance. All he has to say is “I won,” and then he does what he wants. Who can/will stand up to him? He’ll have his ‘black’ shirts in place before long, and they’ll take care of any opposition!!

The good news is that ammo is flying off the shelf!
“Transparency ... except when it might implicate the White House Chief of Staff?”
Democrats scooped HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS out of Fannie Mae with crooked accounting, either directly:
(Franklin Raines pocketed $100 Million Dollars+!, Jamie Gorelick-$25 Million, Daniel Mudd $12.5 Million, and the list goes on and on and on, reading like a laundry list of connected Democrats sucking at the money pump.)
Or through MILLIONS passed thru to Democrats by “Donations” in the TENS OF MILLIONS to ACORN, the Urban League, Southern Poverty Law Center, etc,etc,etc.
And ALL of it financed by DEMOCRATS cooking Fannie and Freddie’s books to hide the MASSIVE losses...
0bama ordered that...
“”The Government should not keep information confidential merely because public officials might be embarrassed by disclosure, because errors and failures might be revealed, or because of speculative or abstract fears,” Obama said in the FOIA memo, adding later that “In responding to requests under the FOIA, executive branch agencies (agencies) should act promptly and in a spirit of cooperation, recognizing that such agencies are servants of the public.”
His memo on government transparency states that the Obama Administration “will work together to ensure the public trust and establish a system of transparency, public participation, and collaboration. Openness will strengthen our democracy and promote efficiency and effectiveness in Government.” The order directs the yet-to-be-named chief technology officer to work with the OMB director to develop an “Open Government Directive” in the next four months. “
"..Through nearly a dozen hearings, we were frankly trying to fix something that wasn’t broke. Mr. Chairman, we do not have a crisis at Freddie Mac, and particularly at Fannie Mae, under the outstanding leadership of Franklin Raines..."
The Obamanites DO NOT want people digging around in the records.
It never bloody was.
PING!!
It has that slimeball “Rhambo” Emmanuel written all over it, for sure.
The Obama administration is a criminal enterprise. I am beginning to think that a compromised legal past is a prerequisite for a job with the Obama administration. I think that Obama uses the past transgressions to control his staff.
I like this open, ethical and ear-mark free usurper administration. Just the kind of change the country needed.
God, we have children running our country. INTO THE GROUND!!
WTH??? Where are the REPUBLICAN VOICES????????
Chump change for Rahm in the greater scheme of things:

“.....Mr. Emanuel, who was chosen last month to become President-elect Barack Obama’s White House chief of staff, went on to make more than $18 million in just two-and-a-half years, turning many of his contacts in his substantial political Rolodex into paying clients and directing his negotiating prowess and trademark intensity to mergers and acquisitions. He also benefited from the opportune sale of Wasserstein Perella to a German bank, helping him to an unusually large payout.
