Where is the "Blago wants to subpoena Obama" and other news items that were there yesterday??
Looks like Drudge has been given the message.
This is INSANE.
Everyone should write in Drudge’s box and ask him what happened to the Blago headline. Not in the archives. Please tell it ain’t so that the gov. finally is controlling his news page?
Maybe replaced with news items from TODAY?
Usually this means Drudge is going to siren it up top.
But it’s been gone since yesterday around 3pm EST. Strange.
“1984” anyone?
Ok I just emailed Drudge and said that Freepers want to know!
Blago-gate: Obama lied about involvement; accepted “large sum of cash” from Rezko

No way! There is no conspiracy in that!

Maybe today's news is more important to readers?
Not true. The Blago stuff IS in the archives. Look at Thursday's page.
As to why it's not on the main page? Well, maybe because this was news on Thursday?
It’s days-old news and isn’t going anywhere. Drudge did his job and brought it to the world’s attention; now the MSM and sheeple have done theirs, and ignored it. But I bet Joe and Jane Average can tell you all the news about “Idol”.
The first ABC News story included the full paragraph about the cash payments.
There is NO bigger story! This is Chicago-Gate. Should be in the press constantly until a Special Prosecutor is appointed.
Obama told the FBI he had no discussions about the U.S. Senate seat. At least two witnesses contradict this and there are phone records to back it up. Lying to the FBI is a crime regardless of anything else. Ask Martha Stewart.
Rezko told the FBI he gave Obama cash. There was also a quid pro quo deal underway for the Rosewood casino with the mob involved.
THERE IS NO BIGGER STORY!
Everything else is trivial. That is enough to impeach. All the play by play of daily politics is secondary.
Asked what contact he’d had with the governor’s office about his replacement in the Senate, President-elect Obama today said “I had no contact with the governor or his office and so we were not, I was not aware of what was happening.”

Now you see eli1 found it in Thus. archives and I missed it. Got me scared and all upset over nothing but a false alarm. WAHNNNN!
Is this why Bambi is “on vacation” this weekend?
That can't be it. Drudge doesn't work so hard at updating the site anymore and most items hang around at least a week before finally falling off.
That is my point—many items stay up for days.
Can’t subpoena Obama he’s above the law.
If they were interfering with Drudge, he would report it. If they could take him down, they already would have. He has rocked them with damaging blows for years - he alone personified the new David media slaying the Goliath.
