Aide: Ax[elrod] 'misspoke'
Politico ^

Posted on 12/09/2008 2:46:29 PM PST by swordfishtrombone

An Obama aide, speaking on the condition of anonymity, took back David Axelrod's remark last month that Barack Obama and Rod Blagojevich had spoken recently.

"What the president-elect said today is correct, David Axelrod misspoke," the aide said.

Obama said today the men had not spoken.

An open question: When they last spoke.

There’s not going to be a President-Elect press conference anytime soon.

So, the Office of the President Elect has already gone into the bunker? Tricky Dick, how we miss ya!

ZERO HUSSEIN is in a heap of trouble! a big heap of trouble and he’s finding out that FBI Agents are very smart and very Brilliant Law Enforcement Officers who dont take kindly to scumbags and dirtballs(eg. dirty corrupt Felons).
As you have pointed ot, this is a very juicy case, and a pathetic one as well: that no one vetted these Idiots before this embarressing moment.

Hussein is probably on at least one of those tapes, I’d wager. We’ll see what happens.

Either way, I am investing in popcorn again.

“on the condition of anonymity

Well then, he must be telling the truth.”

If the article came from Politico it always has a source like that in it. That’s ALL Politico has,,,they can’t name sources because well,,,maybe they don’t really have any. In any case, their articles are full of anonymous sources or third person heresay. It’s amazing to me that site is still going on.

Stupid Scooter Libby. Apparently all he had to do to beat the rap was to say that he “misspoke”...and be a Democrat.

Obama can deny all he wants! Obama can call Axelrod a Liar! But assuming that Obama did speak to the Governor, every word he spoke is on the tapes or chance maybe he was safe because of line securing procedures by the Secret Service for a President-Elect. Any comments by knowledgable Freepers here?? Obama looked very worried while giving his comments, and well Zero should! Corrupt people are reommended and sponsored only by other corrupt and decayed Sponsors/Politicians. These scumbags are NOt stupid, they require like minded understudies to accomplish their agendas:-)

The more corrupt players you have in politics, the more chance you have for that corruption to surface. Obama will slip up or one of his aides will slip up and the house of cards will come crashing down.

You can’t make this stuff up. The Feds have the tapes to prove it they say.

4500 bail? He’s back in the governor’s mansion. 2 years until he is tried..but imprisonment for life the outcome.

Blago wanted a cabinet-ship.

So the Gov. of Ill. is talking on the phone to an Obama staffer about who he should appoint to a very important seat in the U.S. Senate? And the Gov. says he wants cash or a cabinet position or he might take the Senate seat himself.

And we are supposed to believe the One was not informed of these demands (if indeed Obama was not talking to the Gov. himself). Gime Me A Break!

Oh and there is the question asked of Fitz (which he dodged) at the presser today ... "would the person(s) who agreed to pay the 500K and the 1 million be guilty of a crime?" I think one of those people was indeed Obama and Fitz is not saying!

To think the Democrat party wants the one to give some of his extra campaign cash to other candidates.

He has legal bills to pay.
