From that Scoop article (April 7, 2008):

If Obama had an ounce of respect for Democratic voters, he'd drop out of the race before the details of the corruption in Illinois spread to the rest of the country. If the leaders of the Democratic party had a lick of sense, they would inform Obama right now that under no circumstances will his name be on the ballot come fall.

Thanks to the Pravda like press the "details of corruption" remained hidden until after he was elected.

Thanks to the Pravda like press the "details of corruption" remained hidden until after he was elected.

And now that Obama has been elected, the lid pops off. But Blagojevich will not be pleading guilty. He will fight this every step of the way. Hopefully, we'll have a very public trial about the corruption in the Illinois Democratic Party, just before the 2010 election.

Impertinent question. I know dozens of people who go from 100K to 300K salaries overnight. /s

[generally]

Yes, and McCain said he was an “honorable” man.

Collegiality is one thing, but either these people are completely clueless or they are accomplished liars or they have an entirely different concept of “honor” than I do.

[Mr. Silverback]

Welcome aboard.

One of the best vanities ever...definitely the best I’ve ever seen from a newbie.

[Mr. Silverback]

Illinois ping!

Re: # 10. Robert Blackwell Jr. paid Obama an $8,000-a-month retainer for "legal advice" for a technology firm he owned. As a "thank you", Obama wrote a letter so that another company Blackwell owned could receive a state grant.

Obama Paid By Donor Who Got State Grant

At the time, Obama had recently completed his unsuccessful campaign for Congress, and had numerous debts and a law practice he had neglected for a year while campaigning, the Los Angeles Times reported.

Obama had been so strapped for cash that his credit card was initially rejected when he tried to rent a car at the 2000 Democratic convention, Obama disclosed in his book “The Audacity of Hope.”

The monthly payments from EKI supplemented Obama’s $58,000-a-year part-time state Senate salary, and eventually totaled $112,000.

Robert Blackwell Jr., CEO and founder of Electronic Knowledge Interchange Inc., has been named to the transition team of Governor-elect Rod Blagojevich.

Thank you for posting this, without news like this all we would have is what the MSM tries to unload on us.

[Las Vegas Dave]

Thanks, an interesting thread!

BTW: I am reasonably confident that the FEDS know where all the monies are hidden.........!

[Impy]

Thanks for the ping.

Merry Fitzmas to you and Rambette. I hope she and Jr. Silverback are going well.

[Mr. Silverback]

She is doing well, and we now know that we’re having a little girl.

Thanks for your prayers!

You might also axe what Michelle did for that 300K since nobody at the hospital could really say. Hard to say what she did since she was rarely there. Probably being the ideal mom so who cares about a little Graft.

Pray for W and Our Troops

[PghBaldy]
