Blago Lawyer Games

That internal report ginned up by the Obama people? The one that clears Obama's people of any wrongdoing? Blago's lawyer wants to make it Exhibit A in the impeachment proceedings:
  • SPRINGFIELD -- Gov. Blagojevich's lawyer Monday intends to submit President-elect Barack Obama's internal report to a House impeachment panel as evidence the governor wasn't trying to enrich himself while deciding who to appoint to Illinois' vacant U.S. Senate seat.

    Denied the ability to subpoena Obama's inner circle, defense attorney Ed Genson told the Chicago Sun-Times Sunday that the report will buttress his arguments the governor has done nothing wrong and deserves to remain in office.

Golly. Who'd have thunk it? Blago to be bailed out by an investigation spearheaded by Obama's people. Amazing how this is all going to work out. The Machine protects its own.

You are silly silly silly on this one SCC. Your giddyness over the Blackhawks must be affecting your thinking.

Blago is going to be successfully impeached.

It's also clear from the transcripts released by the fiendish Feds that Blago is not a big fan of how the Obama folks responded to his overtures. Suggesting that Obama had carnal knowledge of his own mother is not what I would call a successful conspiracy.

Now there are many valid reasons to criticize Obama. This aspect of the Blago thing isn't one of them.

Now criticizing Obama for supporting Hairgel Rod in 2002 and 2006 is VALID. I voted for Vallas and in 2006 I voted for the Judy Judy Judy. Don't blame me.

Criticizing Obama for not going after Daley after Obama became "ObamaSaurus Rex" in Illinois politics is also valid.

I'm not sure that this is as much a case of the Machine protecting its own, as it is a case of Obama & Company distancing themselves from Blago, and, in the process, unwittingly giving Blagos defense an angle... in fact, his defense team is already using all claims of innocense by people around Blago, as proof that each such claim by others is additional proof of his own innocense.

Gee. A defense of "I didn't do it." There's a brilliant new legal twist! Case dismissed! You're free to go!

Consider me naive, but I don't understand. How does Obama's internal report "prove" that B wasn't trying to sell the Senate seat? There were plenty of other times (recorded) B offered the seat for sale. How can Obama's report possibly bail out B?

We know the Obama report was crafted to protect Emanuel first, and possibly The Oracle himself. The MSM cleared Obama of any wrongdoing by accepting the report entirely on its own merits.

There is nothing to see here, move along.

Blago would be a fool not to grasp at that straw.

The fact that Blagojevich is still in office is appalling and typical for the collossaly corrupt state of Illinois.

The Office of The President-elect investigating itself and telling us President-elect Obama and his peeps are the only virgins from the whorehouse of Illinois political incest and shenanigans is a story you would think the Media would be all over like say, Britney Spears stepping out of a car commado style.

The story of Obama's political homeland.

The story of the "We don't want nobody nobody sent" State of Illinois and the County of Crook.

The media must keep there heads deeply planted up there asses for to do othrrwise and pull up the shades to shine some sunlight on the political cesspool Obama marinated in, the media would have to admit they are criminally complicit in hiding who the people are that made President-elect Obama who and what he is and how his election was abetted by a fawning media on it's knees giving him and Blago editorial blow jobs.

What is President-elect Obama?

He and his inner circle are as corrupt as Blagojveich.

Why?

Because contrary to all the bullshit he spouted during the election, President-elect Obama has not once explicitly called on Blagojevich to step down for the good of the slimeball party and the slimeball state nor has he stated to the nation Blagojveich and Illinois politics is the poster child for what is wrong with politics an it's why he wants to serve the people.

Thanks to many in the local and national media for facillitating the turning of the United States of America in to a third world political shit hole by not performng your fiduciary responsibility of helping to preserve the ideals this country was founded upon and educating the citizens.

The media isn't totally at fault for this fraud but they sure rate a cloae 2nd in contributory negligence.

I now look upon most of those in the media lower then then an actual street whore.

At least a hooker is honest about their "pay-to-play" and as Charlie Sheen has been quoted saying, "and then go away" profession.

So if I get a CR# for some bullshit complaint (because they're all bullshit complaints of course) can I conduct my own investigation and exonerate myself?

They don't know what to do.

Rule number one is to not have one of your guys go down. Rule number two is you can't get rid of a guy you put up (JP Jody Weis, Blogo).

But what do you do when one of your guys royaly screws up then threatens to go rouge??

If Blogo had a price in mind for a US Senate seat you better believe he has a price in mind for his silence!

A good question is Do the Feds have anymore wires up??

LAWYER LAYS OUT DEFENSE, BLAGO “NOT FROM THIS PLANET”

Attorney Shumway: Now, he shouldn’t be discriminated against just because he has a foreign accent. And that’s why my client can’t get a fair trial on this planet, he’s an illegal alien. Yes, he should be deported, but not put on trial for a crime, which if he had committed on his own planet, would not have been a crime. In fact, if he had committed these same “crimes” he would be a hero.
Reporter: So you are saying, he should be deported not put on trial?

Attorney Shumway: What are you a ventriloquist? Did I say that, you said that and you’d be right if you weren’t wrong. Chicago, where my client lives and was arrest, is an Illegal Alien Sanctuary City, therefore he can not be deported and he can’t stand trial because he should be deported.

Wrong-o buck-o
The impeachment panel will not allow Blah-go-to-jail-bitch's lawyer request to go through. US attorney asked that they not subpeona the information as it could jeapordize his criminal case and they agreed.

Hello FED's (to include Justice Dept, whoever is working as a FLE agent/officer or Federal DA), is anyone there? I know you people read this blog but do any of you plan to do anything like investigate this or is Obama already safe from any criminal investigation? If he did something wrong, investigate and prosecute, if Blago did something wrong then investigate and prosecute. If Obama's people are throwing bullshit up then call them on it. Don't wreck our country with the same bullshit that has destroyed Chicago and Illinois.

Ed Gensen is a good lawyer but he is full of babbling bullshit like most lawyers. On the other hand Sheldon and Sam Jr. are two real life idiots. Seen them both in action, they are more comical than Laurel and Hardy.

This story has kind of gotten lost in all the other corruption--


FBI hears about prison closure plan

by Tony Sapochetti | Wednesday, December 24, 2008 |

Illinois state Sen. Dan Rutherford says he has discussed concerns about the planned closure of the prison at Pontiac with the FBI and is asking others to come forward with information about “inappropriate activity” that may be tied to embattled Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich.

“I am asking those who have knowledge of inappropriate activity surrounding this flawed decision (to close the state Pontiac Correctional Center) to provide information” to U.S. Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald, Rutherford, R-Chenoa, said Tuesday.
