Does anyone else find it amusing that his arrest happened on “the first Tuesday after the first Monday”, the very month after BO was selected?

This guy is toast.

But it all makes me wonder about the corruption that got Obamanation the seat — wasn’t the governor of Illinois then — Ryan?

“A substantial salary for himself at a either a non-profit foundation or an organization affiliated with labor unions;”

“Placing his wife on paid corporate boards where he speculated she might garner as much as $150,000 a year;”

Sounds like what the old community organizer the Zer0 and Mrs Zer0 did in good old Chicago!

Mr. Grant said: "Many, including myself, thought that the recent conviction of a former governor would usher in a new era of honesty and reform in Illinois politics.

Bwaahahahaha. Mr. Grant should've consulted with Mar, who would've told him "Mr. Grant, we can't go on the air with this!"

Who is “Client #5”??

Who are any of the other un-named possible co-conspirators on this?? Nobody in the media cares to speculate, so that means it’s a highly placed Democrat...

BRING BACK SENATOR PETER FITZGERALD.

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,111159,00.html
Sen. Peter Fitzgerald (search), R-Ill., will retire after just one term. He’s retiring because his own party has turned on him and promised to run a primary candidate against him. That’s because this particular senator decided that while he was in office he’d be his own man and vote his own conscience. He wouldn’t be a lackey for his party, he wouldn’t vote pork home to his state, and he wouldn’t do what the special interests who run his party told him to do. And that got him into trouble.

....
Well, not quite. Instead of rewarding an aspiring local attorney for his political support with the nomination, as is custom in the U.S. Senate, Fitzgerald was more concerned about the ongoing investigation of then-governor and fellow Republican George Ryan, and wanted to be sure an aggressive prosecutor independent of local politics was assigned to the case. So he went out of state and nominated prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald (no relation), who indicted Ryan on corruption charges last December.

In case the PDF of the complaint mysteriously vanishes from the web, I have put it up on my page as well. You can view it there or download it.

I will be putting up the original change.gov pages today as well. (The ones before it got scrubbed.)
