It won’t be prosecuted because there is no legal authority that is not complicit in this case.

One, this is the Chicago way!

Two, Obama will sacrifice an underling if necessary and deny any knowledge of it.

Being the polite fellow Obama will say, "Pardon Me!"

Either that or cement overshoes in the Potomac!

You see it’s only illegal if he solicits a job in favor of quitting his bid to become senator. The rules are often written to protect those in power. It may be illegal if he had accepted the job and then the person in power may be found guilty.

It’s splitting hairs, but those in power create the laws to keep them in power.

Finally, someone with the courage to say publicly that the activities of the Obama administration are criminal. Add to this the ACORN activities and the union bribes which are also illegal. Unfortunately the Justice Department under that lying slimeball Holder is so corrupt that nothing will happen.

The trial lawyers OWN Zero. They will protect him if his own Justice Dept decides to prosecute. He** (DC) froze over for a week this month so maybe this will happen? NOT!!

Rahm Emanuel’s resignation is being demanded for a different crime: corruption, destroying oversight, and thwarting a federal investigation on the thread cited below:

" A bombshell has just exploded in the 2010 elections.

For the second time in five months, the Obama White House is being accused -- by Democrats -- of offering high ranking government jobs in return for political favors. What no one is reporting is that this is a violation of federal law that can lead to prison time, a fine or both, according to Title 18, Chapter 11, Section 211 of the United States Code. "...

I never understood the significance of "when did he know it". If his knowledge of a crime is not immediately followed by punishment, whether notifying proper authorities or firing the culprit, then what does it matter when he knew it? He would still be complicit in the crime.

The layers of judicial insulation must be ripped away from those serving in government, from the Whitey House down to the lowest position of political servitude,i.e., Monica Lewinsky types.

First, we need to get a constitutional amendment that no more than 1/4 of those serving in congress can have ever been a lawyer.

Second, Outlaw political careers in fed gov. Anyone who seeks to serve more than three terms, is said to be making a career in politics at the federal level and will not be allowed to seek reelection for a fourth term for the seat he now holds, but may seek election to another seat, i.e., go from house to Senate or the other way, or the Presidency.

Third, Shift the aura of power from the centralized location of DC to Topeka Ks for no more that 30 years, then shift it to Wyoming for no more than 30 years, and on and on till you hit all fifty states. Once Power is removed from DC, make it a memorial city of the history of the US, the arts and science.

Fourth, No one party can pass laws that are binding on US citizens and the states the reside in.

Fifth, It shall be illegal for the Whitey House to solicit news media for any purpose other than to announce its itinerary of upcoming events and speeches.

Sixth, It shall be illegal for the Whitey House to solicit big or small business to join it in pursuing policy initiatives.

When the Republicans start sounding more like what I just described, then maybe I’ll send them some money.

This is part of the reason the teaparty movement is growing -- Corruption is unchecked.

Will there even be an investigation?

Will Attorney General Holder recuse himself from such an investigation?

Some of the players: Biden, Rahm, Rendell, Specter, Messina and maybe, just maybe, Obama.

Isn’t this very similar to what Blagojevich is accused of? Can the media explain why Blago is vilified while Obama skates?

I’m sure Holder will be all over this.

And the legacy media, just like they were with the Bush attorney firings.
