You’ve got what, 2 contradictory statements from other witnesses that say otherwise what Obama has said. And this judge says there is not enough evidence to depose Obama in court??

We all know damn well now that the judiciary is protecting that ass in the White House.

WHAT DOES BUSH HAVE TO HIDE??

EVERY MAN DESERVES TO BE DEFEND HIMSELF IN COURT. BUSH CANNOT BE ALLOWED TO HIDE. WHAT DOES BUSH KNOW? DID BUSH COVER UP SOME THING?

THERE MUST BE SOME THING BUSH KNOWS IF A DEMOCRAT (BLAGO) WANTS HIM TO TESTIFY.

EVERY MAN IS EQUAL IN USA AND BUSH SHOULD HAVE TO ANSWER A SUBPOENA LIKE ANYONE ELSE! BUSH MUST BE GUILTY OF SOME THING.

I mean Obama.

Blago deserves a fair trial and form what I saw Obama’s interference there makes him a key witness. Blago should go interlocutory now....

Two words. Bill Clinton. He had to testify in the Paula Jones case after a 9-0 SC decision.

What a joke. There is no rule of law. This guy could go to jail and he is not being allowed to defend himself.

Considering the charge is political corruption; I should be more relieved if the DID... the same with sitting Congressmen.

Those people get away with FAR too much.
