Down goes Ryan, now Rod.... Can't mess with Chicago it seems though...

If only the great mayor Daley was involed. I think he's to smart for this
Not sure smart is the right word... I think he just doesn't want to go anywhere else, he is exactly where he wants to be, Mayor of Chicago... Must be a nice spot...
It will be interesting to see how far it goes and how much information comes out.
From yahoo:
"Federal investigators bugged the governor's campaign offices and tapped his home phone, capturing conversations laced with profanity and tough-guy talk from the governor. Chicago FBI chief Robert Grant said even seasoned investigators were stunned by what they heard, particularly since the governor had known for three years was under investigation for alleged hiring fraud."
i love the part about the tough-guy talk and how he knew he was under investigation but kept running his mouth. should be some interesting audio tapes to get a hold of.

Obamas team is already saying they have no involvment with HOT ROD. One of Obamas guys released a statement a month or so ago, saying how Obama had the highest respect for Rod and how he will do a good job picking a new senator. TODAY that statment was pulled back, conversation was never had and such. Funny how these things happen!!!!!! FLIPIN LIARS!!!!!!
chicago politics is always corrupt, funny thing is osama has a bunch of him in his cabinet,
hmm how many are on the take???
business as usual???

They have ZERO involvement in what was going on. The statement that was made happens all the time. It is "classy" to just say he supports that side of the party. Don't buy into it too much.
Really. If they release all the info, it could be very interesting.

Milehigh, when you are normally so fanatic about verification, I don't understand how you can make that statement. How do you know this?
I wouldn't dare say that George Bush , John McCain or Sarah Palin had ZERO
involvement in this scandal. At this point, one never knows how this will shake out.
The FBI has been investigating this guy for three years. If Obama had no clue about that he has no business running this country.
If anyone has a link to the 76 page complaint post it. Supposedly he was cussing out Obama real good.

I personally don't trust Obama any farther than i could throw him.
However...
I don't think he had any knowledge of this or anything to do with it.
He may very well have contacted the guy but it was for nothing important other than to put his 2 cents in on who he thought should replace him, and that is only right.

This should be interesting....I cant hardly believe that Obama did have "any' idea this guy was crooked. Hopefully time will tell
Yah, that would be quite lame... president elect gets taken down by fixing who was going to replace him in the senate...
Obama is now calling for Rod to resign... That speaks pretty loudly....
