How convenient..........

[Eric in the Ozarks]

This is wonderful. The fiasco has continued life on so many levels. It might last for years at this rate.

Now there is an unbiased judge and jury, if I ever saw one.

Ok so people are supposed to beleive a report when the prosecutor’s office leked that there are over 20 conversations? How stupid does Obama think American’s are?

[lilylangtree]

Of course he does. He absolves Rahm-bo then he absolves himself and other RATS. And the general public never gets to know the real story because MSM won’t print anything negative on their golden boy because he runs such a “well-organized” campaign.

[ErnBatavia]

Did anyone expect an “internal investigation” to do anything other than exonerate? Heh...

[Bernard]

Does the Office of the President Elect have the ability to grant pardons, or does he need to actually be inaugurated before he can do the fish and bread thing?

[jennyjenny]

That settles that.

[Huskrrrr]

There you have it, we have Obama’s word. What more do we need?

[RC2]

Ummmmm.....isn’t this up to the courts????? Guess he is going to pardon him before he is even convicted. What a guy.

"We have investigated ourselves, and as we thought, we are clean as a whistle!"

[Chgogal]

I am shocked, shocked that their is gambling in this establishment (as I collect my winnings). /s

[bray]

Good enough for the obamedia. After all their job is to make Obama look good. Imagine if Karl Rove had made those calls.

I thought absolving someone of a crime was a function of the judiciary and not the executive. Silly me.

[JavaJumpy]

Distraction. That’s getting as much use as the word ‘notion’.

[olezip]

President-elect Barack Obama’s aides plan to release a report this week absolving incoming chief of staff Rahm Emanuel of any impropriety in his contacts with the disgraced Illinois governor’s office, Democratic sources tell Politico.

I know that Obama went to the best schools and is a good orator, but I am not sure he knows the meaning of the word "impropriety." The meaning of that word is very different for him in contrast to its meaning for the rest of the world.

Of course Emanuel has been absolved, and that is all that counts. For he and Obama have similar Chicago gangster and Democratic Party backgrounds, where words mean what they say they mean, and who they apply to; certainly not to you or I.

[Chgogal]

Oh BTW, Gov. Blago’s Chicago office is at 4147 N. Ravenswood. Rahm lives on the 4200 block of North Hermitage Ave. which is one short city block east of Ravenswood. In OTW, Rahm lives about 150 yards away from Gov. Blago’s Chicago Office.

un-freaking-believable..it's like getting caught by the cops in the middle of a burglary and being allowed to frisk yourself.

[HondaCRF450]

We forgive ourselves, we pardon ourselves, we are clean, yes we are, yes we are.

[Las Vegas Ron]

Looks like the Clinton machine is back in action.

[Lancey Howard]

Does Obama forgive him?
