"There was no inappropriate contact."
In parsing the words of Algonquin J. Obamba, aka The chosen One, this means
Of course there was contact ... but it was entirely appropriate for me to be taking care of business, because just although I may now be running the whole country, it doesn't mean I am letting go of Chicago."
BTW as I prepare for my fourteenth IRS visit, I would like to know what happened to the "Obamba Leftovers" from the campaign. Unspent campaign funds go right into the winning (or losing) candidates's pocket. In The Anointed One's case, that means about 50-Super-Large. Is this taxable? Besides making Barry and Michelle super-rich, it also makes him a major player in the national democrat party with the ability to support the candidates of his choice.
O yeah, one other thing, why did they spring the trap on Blago now? He hadn't done anything criminallywrong yet! No money changed hands, no names were named that we know of, etc. Sure they can get Blago to resign or throw him out, but a day-one Public Defender could get him off on what they have so far. Call me cynical, but I think we are seeing a pre-emptive strike by Rahm Emannuel .. to protect his boss!
Fitzie the Fearless Prosecutor? DMML Bought and paid for a long time ago by the Clintonistas... a very political animal.
Bye-bye Blago.
That brings up my biggest question.
It has been reported that Fitz had enough to take "Bed Head" into custody months ago but was told to back off so as not to influence the elections.
Who gave him this order and WHO IS UNDULY INFLUENCING OUR PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION. The public arrest of Blago could have had a large and JUST negative influence on Zer0...and someone, somewhere made a choice for me and the rest of the United States that it would not be good to form opinions on candidates.
THIS IS A REAL CRIME PERPETRATED AGAINST U.S. CITIZENS!!

Sweet game if you’re in, ain’t it.
>>why did they spring the trap on Blago now?
The One Million Dollar question, hadn’t really DONE anything wrong, as you accurately say, apart from the shakedown at the hospital, but, pardon moi, that sounds more SOP than anything unusual.
>>Bye, Bye Blago.
Heck, I hope not. Fight, man, Fight. Obamawallahs I visited with weren’t happy when I mentioned that nice CHANGE, perhaps the first President Elect to have a scandal even before he takes office.
—There was no inappropriate contact
May go down with other chestnuts like Clinton’s “is”, the finger wag nondenial denial, Nixon’s not a crook, and Dubya’s Bring it On and assorted others.
