Obama Says 'Official' Explanation Coming 'Shortly' on Alleged Sestak Job Offer
fox ^ | 5/27/10 | fox

President Obama said Thursday that the White House is preparing to issue a formal explanation regarding the allegation that it offered Rep. Joe Sestak a job to drop out of the Democratic primary race against Sen. Arlen Specter.

The president, addressing the matter in public for the first time since the Pennsylvania congressman leveled the claim in February, said the statement should answer questions about the claim and insisted "nothing improper" happened.

I hope Sestak has eyes in the back of his head. I fear for him.

If an explanation, after all of this time, is still "COMING SHORTLY" (our president in name only has said) it can only mean that they not made up a plausible storyline yet or have not contacted Sistek or whatever his name is yet and threatened him within an inch of his life, yet.

Either way, it points to a LIE being formed to anyone with common sense and a focus on integrity.

As soon as we can get together and make up a plausible story we will let you know.

Before Rahm/Obama tried to bribe Sestak, didn’t Rahm/Obama discuss SELLING BLAGOJEVICH’S SENATE SEAT?

What’s happening with the BLAGO investigation?

How many FREE federal crimes do Rahm/Obama get to commit before they get prosecuted?

And now, the White House bribed Romanoff and Dodd too?

The only person they haven’t bribed is me. Here’s my phone number: 555-555-5555

“Just as soon as they get their stories straight and finish scrubbing the email records.”

Boy, are you cynical! Don't you believe that the administration wants to present all the FACTS and how they played out. I know I believe his (0’s) every word and I am sure neither he nor his staff would EVER do anything wrong.

Whew! To say that hurt so bad, I think I will puke!

The FBI may have already interviewed Sestak. They usually get involved in anything as high profile as this.

If there were nothing to this story they would not need to get back to us later with an “official” explaination. The fact he could not directly and without hesitation answer the question suggests they have much to hide.

Meanwhile, the GOP is a day late and a dollar short on this. This is the type of thing the left would take enough advantage of to take down a president. The right, asleep at the switch.

BLAGO seemed like a kook, until today. Starting today, Blago is 100% credible.

Now, if Blago says “Rahm tried to bribe me, Rahm tried to sell my Senate seat,” Blago has credibility, because there’s a retired 3-star Admiral (SESTAK) on TV accusing Rahm/Omoslem of similar felonies.

Plus, Omoslem also apparently tried to bribe Romanoff and Dodd.

The best part of this will be Omoslem and his commie propaganda machine (MSM) throwing mud at a 3-star US Navy Admiral.... calling him a liar, a scumbag, trying to smear him. It’ll be hilarious.

I can’t wait till Blago writes a book about all this. The WH knows Blago is a crazy Serb, and he’ll take them all down if he’s messed with. Suddenly, he’s not a “nut,” he’s another guy caught in Omoslem’s Chicago Mafia Machine, just like Sestak.

Folks, don’t carpool with Blago, b/c I suspect he’s about to have “an accident.” Perhaps he’ll overdose on aspirin.

But before the WH kills Blago, let’s get Blago back on TV, do some interviews with him about WH crimes!
