I don’t look for this to make headlines on any MSM network. They are going to protect their most holy one at all costs.

There have been only 2 high-profile honest politicians in Illinois recent history, one from each party. Paul Simon (D) was censured by the Illinois State Senate for compalaining about corruption.....Peter Fitzgerald (R)was told by the GOP State Committee that he would receive no help for re-election (because of his no-tolerance for corruption), so he quit after one term (and that's how Obama took the US Senate seat).
Talk about the law of unintended consequences.

The GOP's own corruption and/or lack of spine in fighting corruption played a big part in enabling Ø'bama's lighting quick rise to power. A rise that was quick enough to elude vetting by the public.

This is why I am very clear to identify myself as a Conservative and not a Republican.

You need to clean up your jumping the gun. You were wrong and not man enough to apologize.

Sweet, I certainly do hope/expect it should all link up with Rezko and other corrupt scum of the Illinois Democrap Party..... what I’m waiting to see (aren’t we all) is whether there will be any smoking gun against the Obamanation, ‘cause so far he’s managed to keep himself in the background on this stuff.

btw, the stuff from the tape of Blagovich about wanting a nice cushy 6-figure job for his wife..... well that sure does remind us of a certain 6-figure make-work position that Michelle Obama landed with the U. of Chicago hospital, huh?

Blagojevich and Harris were arrested simultaneously at their homes at about 6:15 a.m.

Good job, Feds. Make it count and make it stick!!

Who cares what laws Obama broke? If they had gone public with this before the election it wouldn’t have mattered one bit. He still would have one. Combine his rabid “win at all costs” liberal white base with every black in this country and you see why there’s no way he’d lose. Our only hope was him losing the primary.

Hmmm......I wonder if this US attorney will be canned by the new Administration on Jan. 21st ?

Fitz just made that completely impossible for Obama/Holder. They would be suicidal to fire him now.

“Unless a Special Prosecutor has been named to investigate the corruption in Illinois. They have a lot of leeway to take the investigation where it leads and the next President can’t make them go away.”

So far, there isn’t one. Since Bush is *still* on his “new tone in Washington” tack, there isn’t likely to be one.

I no longer trust Drudge anymore. I think he has been bought by Obama.

This is FAR from over...Blogo is not the end of this by no means...Blogo is first (and his wife)...next Rezko...connect the dots...who comes after that? with long tentacles they can now pursue....

I love Fitzgerald...why he gets slammed on FR I don’t understand...he reminds me of an old wild west sheriff.

I hope so but it would not surprise me if this guy was canned at the first opportunity.
Funny how this guy was a hero to the left and now he’s a tool of the rightwing machine.

Hysterical graphic... sez it all. Now, what I want to know is how much BHO paid for that Illinois Senate seat?

It would be totally ironic if we had yet another event like this about to happen.

Fitz is rounding up all the community organizers....he started pretty high but I think it’ll get higher.

Rumor in a chat room I'm monitoring: "Rush just said that all of Obama's press conferences scheduled for today have been canceled."

Someone please confirm!!
