I’m kind of tired of Republicans running with their tails between their legs after lesser scandals (ie, Lott) while Democrats flaunt their crimes and continue to serve as if it’s their right.

The Blagojevich phone taps were the result of Rezko singing to federal prosecutors for a reduced prison sentence. Rezko is tied with Obama (fundraising, real estate) but also directly with Blagojevich, Emanuel, Axelrod, and with Daley.

I can’t imagine Rezko would only rat about Blaggie.

And Blag in turn will do some snitching of his own. Rezko may be looking for clemency from President O, but Blaggie looks like the kind of guy that’ll burn the whole barn down.

The interesting hypothetical is how do we handle a Watergate type scandal which breaks after an election but before an inauguration.

President Biden?????

How or where do people like the Clintons and Obama find people who are so willing to take the blame when things get weird?! Can the promised whatever-reward down the road be so attractive that they’ll willingly take the hit for them? Wow. It’s weird to see this happening all over again like with the Clintons…”what the meaning of ‘is’ is”, indeed.

INDICTMENT: “In a conversation with Harris on November 11, the charges state, Blagojevich said he knew that the President-elect wanted Senate Candidate 1 for the open seat but “they’re not willing to give me anything except appreciation. [Expletive] them.”

Why Obama can’t just come out and say he or his people talked to Blag and his people about the Senate seat appointment, especially if they weren’t willing to pony up anything more than ‘appreciation’? In that case, it makes Obama look like a good guy. So why all the backpedalling?

Anybody else think it’d be super funny for them to find some serious bad dirt on Michelle and for him to go, “What?! I, um, I don’t, uh, know who that, um, p-person is. We–we’ve NEVER, um, spoken. Uh, married? Um, don’t–don’t be, uh, ridiculous. What?”
