Now just think about this for a moment. We have all just witnessed Rod Blagojevich and his talents on “The Apprentice” and for the life of me I just can’t see him being effective in any “top job” of the US government. Which brings to mind a startling conclusion for the sorry state of affairs this Country finds itself in. Everyone on Obama’s staff is incompetent and are there primarily for political reasons. I’m am truly enlightened as to why things have fallen apart.
At what point did anyone think Obama knew how to tell the truth?.
ping
Of course he knew. It was obvious to anyone but a complete idiot. The partially released Blago transcripts made it very clear.
You'd think this would be BIG news, but I didn't hear a peep about it last night, or this morning on Fox, so I can imagine it wasn't covered anywhere else either.

§ 4. Misprision of felony

Sounds like an impeachable offense to me!!!!
But, is there any evidence to support this?
If there is a paper trail or documents from The Big 0 showing he knew, it would be serious.
Haven't heard of any yet. Stay tuned.
I am a little unclear on where the crime is-
Did Blago want something PERSONALLY? for his Senate seat?
Otherwise, I would expect others would want to talk to him about who they would like to see in the seat.
If Obambi said “select our person and we will give you something” then obambi is cuilty- but if Blago said “what will you give me for picking your guy’ then blago is guilty.
I said he knew about this right at the start, and if the media did their job they would know too.
This is Chicago where all know what is going on in their circle.
They said Bush was corrupt , maybe he was but he and his admin are nothing to this administration.
I’m still waiting for the NY city flyover manifest to be released and who was on that plane
DUH !
Ya think?
I knew this when it happened....
most people knew this when it happened....
..... and now we FINALLY have proof?
it’s been out there all along and (just) now we have “Proof”
It was for the children.
OF COURSE, HE KNEW BUT IT HAS TO BE PROVEN THAT HE KNEW. LET US JUST WAIT AND SEE WHAT THE REST OF THE TRIAL REVEALS AND HOPEFULLY THERE WILL BE MORE EVIDENCE TO THAT FACT.
John Edwards will tell you this paper don’t lie
“The president understands that the governor would be willing to make the appointment of Valerie Jarrett as long as he gets what he’s asked for,” Harris told the court Wednesday.”
Looks like a pattern here. Joe Sespak and the Congressman from Colorado were offered jobs to not run for office. I don’t know if there is enough evidence for prosecution but there is always public opinion about being a crook.
Jarrett may be Obama’s “closet red” since she was “watching” admitted communist nut Van Jones for 8 years. In what capacity was she “watching” Van Jones, and for whom? How to you say Obama?
PS: Her father has some ties to the Communist Party and its fronts in Chicago.
KNEW OF IT? HE DEMANDED IT. I am in charge and this is it, unless FBI wiretaps take you out.
