LOL!

Obamanaughts have said nothing improper happened.

So Blago subpeonas them to support his case.

Have fun, Obamanaughts!

[Dutch Boy]

Or they leave through methods like stabbings, shootings, drowning, poison and other natural Chicago ways.

“This is how Blojobavich will get off; some of those who are being called to testify on his behalf will eventually claim some sort of executive privilege or other immunity from testifying. Fitzy blew this case from the beginning by not waiting for money to pass hands, he obviously didn’t want to involve the Great One in this scandal, he likely feared for his life if he did.”

Ping!

Hasn't Fitz gone after "R"s over "D"s like 62 to 3? Another worthless/leftist egomaniac.

Did Rahm fillout the 63-count seven-page personnel application Obama gave to possible appointees? If so, how did Rahm outline his ties to financial institutions involved in the federal bailout? His activities on the Freddie Mac Board? Rahm's emails to Madoff? Gun rights?

REFERENCE After serving as an advisor to Bill Clinton, in 1998 Emanuel resigned his position to become a Wall Street investment banker with Wasserstein Perella, (now Dresdner Kleinwort), where he worked until 2002. In 1999, he became a managing director at the firm’s Chicago office. Emanuel made $16.2 million in his two-and-a-half-year stint as a banker, according to Congressional disclosures. At Wasserstein Perella, he worked on eight deals, including the acquisition by Commonwealth Edison of Peco Energy and the purchase by GTCR Golder Rauner of the ecurityLink home security unit from SBC.

After Emanuel left banking to run for Congress, members of the securities and investment industry became his biggest backers, donating more than $1.5M to his campaigns dating back to 2002, according to the Center for Responsive Politics. Mr. Emanuel also leaned heavily upon the industry as 2006 Dem Congressional Campaign Committee Chair. Financial industry donors contributed more than $5.8M to the Dem committee, behind only retirees.

Then President Bill Clinton in 2000 named Emanuel to the Board of Directors for the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation ("Freddie Mac"). Rahm's position paid him $31,060 in 2000 and $231,655 in 2001. During the time Emanuel spent on the board, Freddie Mac was plagued with scandals involving campaign contributions and accounting irregularities. The Office of Federal Housing Enterprise Oversight (OFHEO) later accused the board of having "failed in its duty to follow up on matters brought to its attention." Emanuel resigned from the board in 2001 when he ran for Congress.

Obaba should understand that Rahm is bad news for him. Every Obaba news clip, every pic, Rahm strives to overshadow Obaba. Rahm cops an arrogant stance----his hands on his hips ----delivering the message---"Forget Obaba, I'm in charge. You will deal with me. So don't even think about fricking with me. "

That whole Obama-Blag-Rahm scene reminds me of the infantile, anti-smoking flick "Blood Freak."

RECAP Seems this self-absorbed, ripped protagonist w/ Elvis hair who loves to dance (an Obama-Blago mutate), eats tainted turkey and becomes an evil bird---but only after bedding down a bimbo in a flowered bikini faking orgasm.

Blago's latest press conference was as entertaining as an Ed Wood production. Notice how Blag kept looking back at the curtain backdrop? That's b/c the Chicago PTB have a contract out on him.

Daley's boys were locked and loaded behind the curtain, aiming AK47's at Blago's back.

If Blago didn't sound really, REALLY sincere, he was dead meat. When Blag said, "I have done nothing wrong," that was the signal to relax those trigger fingers.

" If you bow out, I can get you a lucrative deal----the Hair Club wants to show
anxious bald guys that bad things can happen when you have TOO much hair."

Tea Party #2 time.

"Look you hairy screwball. You better have a press conference and you
better act sincere....or else. My boys are gonna be locked and loaded aiming
AK47's at your back."

"Ok, Dick, now don't get nervous. When I say 'I Have Done Nothing Wrong,' you can signal your boys to relax their trigger fingers."
