Sneed hears rumbles President-elect Barack Obama's chief of staff, Rahm Emanuel, is reportedly on 21 different taped conversations by the feds -- dealing with his boss' vacant Senate seat!
A lot of chit-chat?
No, we'd imagine it's not a lot of chit-chat. We'd imagine Rahm is knee deep in the shit because it hardly seems likely he talked to Blago 21 times and the Senate seat never came up.

I still think it is amazing that there are people who think that I'm racist for not voting for Obama. The guy seems likable enough, but c'mon now, how could ANYONE put an Illinois politician in the White House?!?!?!?!? You really think his hands are clean? If so you must also think that our exempt staff are the best and brightest the Department has to offer.
Don't worry, they'll never let it reach Barry...too afraid of the riots and dissent that would follow taking him down. Why do you think they jumped the gun on this? Arrests before money changed hands....hmmmm....
ha-ha
when is cherry's name going to start surfacing in all this?
Trust me.
They pulled the plug early on in this investigation because it was becoming evident it was going all the way to the top!
Just try to explain to the community how they put a case!!! on the first Black President!Even if it was all recorded!
I could be wrong but man they sure pulled the plug early!
What did the media really expect from Illinois politicians anyway?
Honesty? HA!
Now lets see what kind of deal Fitzgerald gets...Seems more beneficial to him, to do it just how he did it!
He holds the trump cards...He would of fried if he nabbed Obama!
Only thing worse would be to let an ex NFL star murder two people viciously ...and walk...Hell Im not even an ASA and I could have won that case>>

Hmmmmm . . .
Change You Can Believe In =
NOT!
01:07:00 hit the nail on the head. but when it comes election time the overwhelming majority of voting chicagoans vote him in by lopsided numbers. (i had no choice i couldn't vote for whomever). YES YOU CAN. could it get worse under a different mayor? he's fucked the city beyond belief. vote for ANYBODY else.
A good dope wire can go on for months as it snowballs and new offenders/conspirators pop up on tape. Funny how they shut down the Guvs wire so quickly. HMMMMMMMM.
One reason the Daleys are clammed up is so no one jumps on the fact that Republic Windows & doors that tried to shut down & screw it's workers is 40% owned by Bill Daley. Also, all that was shown on TV were Latino workers; how many were illegal in his brother's "Sanctuary City"?
"...Is ambition and avarice, adulation, baseness, covetousness, the thirst for riches, indifference concerning the means of rising and enriching, the contempt of principal, the spirit of party and faction the motive and principle that governs?"

A perfect description of Chicago and Illinois government in action.
Interesting video on You Tube. Panel discussion of Blagojevich and political corruption in Illinois.Robert Cooley was on it. He stated that 20 years ago,Blago ran a Outfit connected gambling game in the suburbs.Cooley stated that when Blago ran for Gov;he informed the FBI of this.Cooley said that the news media in Chicago is just as corrupt as our politicians.That is why nothing is really investigated,and if it is;it is severely downplayed. Stated that the news media,mafia and the politicians are all intertwined.Go to You Tube and type in:Riz Khan Blagojevich.This has been on You Tube for a few days..Amazing that our intrepid and courageous reporters here havent reported it...
Rahmbo will walk away like nothing happened.
Wouldn't he dance away? He's a ballerina!
Couldn't Rahm's brother Ari fix this for him?
Ari is always fixing Vince's problems!
Hell, he even helped Johnny Drama get a job on Five Towns.
Rahm's a great guy and a supporter of veterans!!! Talking is nothing. Blago is the guilty party
Now lets see what kind of deal Fitzgerald gets...

Blowgo is a toe-hold. We all know who The Big Fish is. IMHO, the Feds are still smarting over a certain short cropped grey haired guy taking the hit and not flipping. I know a fed that is still pissed that they never got Donald Stephens.
The feds know who the voters elected, even tho the voters don't. If this is not a play to go Up, then it is a clear message to the Dem Machine (in NM and FL also now) to tred lightly in the next 4 - 8 years.

Evet wonder what happened to Daley's casino in Chicago concern? That disappeared around the same time the midget got a bug up his ass about the "uh-lympix". Had to be some under the table dealings back then, too.
Blago: shut up 'bout the casino and you'll get your lympix.
Daley: kay.

Obama's neighbors think I am racist when I ask for ID's of people wanting to go into the security zone while working the Obama detail. We are instructed to do that through the Secret Service and our supervisors. Yet, when I challenge an ID that does not have an address inside the security zone I am accused of being a racist. Unbelievable.
How about JJ Jr saying he was "in" on the "sting"? Yeah, he was a government informant alright, confessed to it right AFTER the 3 "Kings" visited Blago. Oh to be a fly on THAT wall!
Anyone else wonder if Jesse Jackson Sr. isn't also a Fed informant. He skates along even after his extortion...ie.Budwieser..
Not a Cop...$86 million for Olympic village...CPD..no contract..what the hell is going on..
Gee. I hope they were talking in pig latin.
Anyone see Blago's atty Ed Genson at the hearing today? This is going to become a nationwide three ring circus.
Lorne Michaels and comedy writers all over the country are probably ecstatic.
To 12:45 A.M. you are right that NFL star beat the murder case in California , where people are sure fucked up.,but when he pulled that stunt in Las Vegas He FUCKED UP big time.It all depends on where you commit the crime. You need to pick a place where prosecution is weak.This is why Cook Co. is such a crime ridden shithole.Lastly the people just accept this as the norm.
I repeat: The only person going down is Blago, the machine was sick of him,just like everyone else, only they have the power to destroy their enemies.We, in this shit hole state, will live with the corruption. Like sheep we are powerless.So enjoy the BIG investigation of Rahm.Jackson etc. it ain't goin nowhere.
Wouldn't it stand to reason The President Elect Chief-of-Staff would furnish the names of sutiable replacements for the vacant Senate Seat?
You guys should have been as venomous & inqusitive about the no-bid Government contracts & numerous other shenanigans the current Administration put your grandchildren in hock for, not to mention the eroding personal liberties that were forfeited under the guise of preventing turrurism.
We still have the best hot dogs!

And that according to sneed him and his plumbing contractor son went directly to the white house to meet with Bush! "Please Mr. President don't let Patrick Fitzgerald arrest me for all the many crimes my family and I committed"?
It has ocurred to me after reading some posts regarding informants that our very own Mayor might be the inside guy for the feds. Think of it practically every one around him is being investigated or has gone to jail. He keeps telling BLAGO to do the right thing and think of his family. Who else would repeatedly say this if he hasn't jumped on the bus already? WEIS could be his handler!
We still have the best hot dogs!
