Does anyone think Blago will roll over on anyone in order to avoid a long jail sentence? I don’t see him as a “good soldier”.

I see him as a guy that wants to keep on breathing. So, he may be instructed to implicate a few smaller fish as a token, but that's about it.

I don't look for Blago to implicate anyone like Obama or Daley. Wouldn't surprise me if Blago himself skated on these charges. DemocRATS don't go to jail.

if blago doesn’t implicate dumbo then the American people will. We are onto him, everyone is digging for the truth and bama boy has so many skeletons in his closet, he will NEVER be a legitimate president. My bet is he doesn’t make it 6 months.and the MF’er needs to show that damn bc. At first I thought it was BS, now I think he’s hiding something.

Obama is hiding something all right but I doubt he will be removed from office. He seems, at least thus far, to be teflon man.

Welcome to FR.

It is high time we stop referencing the BO “administration” and start calling it what it is. This promises to be a very interesting and telling week. No doubt ducks were put in rows over the course of the past 48 hours. I dare say the potential is enormous for anyone associated with Blago to have “a most unfortunate slip-and-fall accident” in front of a bus bearing a Zed-08 bumper sticker.

So let's name the posse. I always liked the sound of Dutch Schultz's “Purple Gang.” I think something “-Gang” or “ - Syndicate” would do quite nicely.

Suggestions?

Now I know why he needed an office ....he had business to attend too.

And everyone thought Obama never ran a business.... fooled all of us!

“rohm may be sacrificed and thrown under the zero’s big-wheeled bus.”

is that the same rohm who said that the republicans (countless millions of voting americans) can go f*&^ themselves?; the very same one? is that the one?

Looks like Rahm may be serving his mandatory community service before the rest of us.

[Marysecretary]

It really bugs me when these things happen and these jerks try to cover it up. Why not just come out and say YES, we talked about it. So what???? Talking about it is not a crime. Talking about MONEY and selling the position IS.

[Marysecretary]

Oh knock that crap off.

[Marysecretary]

He’s acting like he was.

...Republicans have stored their balls in a nice, lace-trimmed wicker basket somewhere on grandma’s farm..

I'd laugh if it weren't so true.
