"Obama insisted to reporters, 'I had no contact with the governor or his office and so I was not aware of what was happening. But as I said, it is a sad day for Illinois. Beyond that, I don't think it's appropriate to comment.' "
Am I crazy, or is this the answer he gives to everything that, in fact, requires an explanation from him? I say this crime spree by a sitting governor deserves "comment".
Oughtn't the President-Select be outraged and furious at such malfeasance and corruption in his own state? Oughtn't the President-Select have a word or two to say about it? Doesn't he have an opinion?
What is he waiting for?
1) ...for the Media to lay down covering fire?
2) ...for public opinion to be manipulated to agree that, as an Democrat Illinois Senator, who came up through and learned everything he ever knew from within the Chicago/Illinois political machine, Obama somehow has no contact with the most important Democrat politicians in the state, and remains completely untouched and untainted by the high crimes and misdemeanors evident at every level of Chicago/Illinois politics?
Considering that Blagojevich was pissed to the point of calling Obie a "mother-fucker" because he wouldn't make a deal, it's pretty hard to assume Obie was "totally unaware" of the corruption taking place. Not paying off an official that demands bribes is okay as far as it goes. But keeping quiet about it is, in fact, aiding and abetting criminal behavior. Isn't it?
As a public servant, Senator/President-Select Barack Obama has a moral and patriotic duty to blow the whistle on this sort of sordid, criminal corruption in the halls of government. It ought to be a legal responsibility, I should think. At least as much as for you not giving up your fugitive brother to the law when they come asking...and threaten to charge you with "accessory after the fact" if you don't.
Does he think that just because he didn't make a deal, it's all cool? Does he think it doesn't matter if all this crap is going on all over the place undermining decency and honesty and truth in government, disenfranchising citizens by buying and selling power and influence...as long as the Prince of Peace doesn't get any shit splashed on him?
What a miserable piece of crap. I think about this, at least, Blogajevich is right: Barack Obama is a motherfucker.
Yay for us.

ReplyDeleteHe won't comment until everyone gets their "story" straight,then Blogo will get thrown under the bus.I know,a tired cliche by now,but I keep thinking that Bus must have BIG tires on it for clearance underneath.Like something you'd see at a Monster Truck Rally.
ReplyDeleteWe had eight years of the Clintons not recalling or remembering. Now we have a Democrat who already has picked "not aware of" as his answer to investigations. What will be Obama's blue dress?
ReplyDeleteA couple of weeks ago they were comparing that commie to Lincoln or fdr. He's looking more like President clinton.
ReplyDeleteOh yeah, he knew this was going on.
"TomR":I wouldn't be surprised if Obama's "blue dress" would be the rumored "snowmobile" (i.e.,cocaine-delivery car) during college days.Nah,it would be tagged as just a "youthful indiscretion","nothing to see,move along,it's nothing to do with Now...",even if it could be tied to present-day fellow-crooks from Chicago Machine ("Forget it,Jske,it's just Chi-town").Am I the only one who thinks of similarities to "Six Degrees From Kevin Bacon" game? Connections....
ReplyDeleteI meant "Jake",sorry for the typo...

I can't imagine what the Prince of Peace will have to do to get outed by the drooling media. Did they EVER turn on Clinton until Hillary ran against Obie?
They always ran defense for him too, in the face of everything. I remember most their demonizing the Congressmen who impeached him.
And (I'm ashamed to say) at that time I was on his side! And I don't remember being mad at the media for their treatment of him.
Obie is solid gold. He'd have to be caught with a smoking gun over the corpse of a liberal reporter.
(And even at that...remember Daniel Pearl? How long till the droolers where back defending terrorists?)
If Obie just murdered his children or a Conservative, they'd find some justification for it.
It's a matter of PC stakes."My bi-racial candidate trumps your White Yuppie Feminist,and I FEEL GOOD about my Goodness,facts of corruption do not matter".From news conference today, it's just another example how out of his league he is, just Spin-wise.("THIS is the kind of con-man you sell to us?").Even before taking Office,he can't stand the heat...Affirmative Action Figure...
