J.J.Jr. Feels the Heat
Federal authorities have asked a congressional ethics committee to temporarily back off its probe of U.S. Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr., fearing it would interfere with an ongoing investigation.
The Office of Congressional Ethics revealed Wednesday it was probing whether Jackson improperly used his congressional staff to wage a political campaign for appointment to the U.S. Senate. At the time, then-Gov. Rod Blagojevich was in charge of naming a successor to President Obama's vacant Senate seat.
By now, it's obvious to everyone, even the media, that J.J.Jr. or his father is on tape making an offer of questionable legality to Blago for the U.S. Senate seat. It still could end up that we owe the disgraced governor a debt of gratitude for taking out one of the larger corrupting influences on Illinois politics in general and Chicago politics specifically.

Amen to that. How about it Jesse, can we get an amen?
The reason that the US Attorney abruptly stopped the taping was the fact that Obama was about to get caught on tape as well. And Obama signs the US Attorney's paycheck.
After an officer was bashed on SCC for hitting a bus driver, a "crime" he did not commit, will there be as many apologies posted as there was bashing>
HE GONE!!!!!!
C'Mon, SCC!!! You're just picking on him because he's black.
I never had any type of depression until I worked for this city! All I can do is hope the rest of my time goes quick. This is one damn dirty city...that's for sure!
God bless the Gold Star Families!
does this mean that I shouldn't buy Budweiser beer anymore?..I mean, didn't JJ Sr. strong arm Anheiser-Bush into giving his family a distributorship (based on race/threats of boycotts)...by the way, I wouldn't buy a Bud product if my life depended on it...
But he told us he was working with the FEEBS. A junior G-man of sorts. And his wife is running for Lt governor what is she thinking?
SCC,
how dare you suggest JJ Uno or JJ Part Deux might be on tape.
It's an outrageous accusation!
It actually might have been one of his brothers. You know the local Bud distributors.
Time will tell.
Personally, I can't decide which family I'd rather seen taken down.
Would I choose the Daleys or the Jacksons?
How about we just take both down to be safe.
Please note that JJ,Jr was the only US Rep from Illinois to vote to keep federally funding ACORN, the organization just caught on film helping a pimp hor out his girls. By the way, both Illinois Senators also voted to keep funding them.
My Mistake, there were 4 US Reps from Illinois Who voted to keep funding ACORN's Pimp and Ho operation, Rush, Davis, Schakowsky, and Jackson.
sorry its ot....but the sun-times reported in thurs edition that the bus driver that was battered by an odpo was male. did i read correctly the other day that the driver was female?
signed, confused in the 19th ward.
Hopefully, one political crime family down, one more to go.
Why is JJ JR.'s wife a City alderthingy when she lives in D.C.? After all, isn't that where their kids go to school?
I love the last paragraph of that story....
"Meanwhile, Jackson's wife, Ald. Sandi Jackson, presented her credentials to the Cook County Democratic Central Committee last Friday, asking committeemen to slate her as their candidate for lieutenant governor of Illinois."
Does this family have no shame??!!
THANKS FOR THAT ONE ROD,NOW I JUST HOPE YOU USE THE GOOD STUFF YOU HAVE TO BRING DOWN THAT LITTLE PRICK ON THE FIFTH FLOOR....THAT IS OF COURSE BEFORE HE DOES TO YOU WHAT HE DID TO KELLY.
He and his wife sandy "I don't have to live in my ward" Jackson may now officially live in washington.
Pray that Blago doesn't take or isn't "given" too many aspirins.
Trouble is, the "G" is in on the cover-up.
The only reason Fitzgerald arrested Blago and held that dramatic news conference was to protect then President-elect Obama. They sensed that a deal was about to be struck for Jarret. Not the best way for the first 1/2 black President to start his term.
JJ Jr. was just trying to beat Obama and Rahm to the punch.
AMEN !!!! Turn up the Heat. Yessssss !!!!!!! Corruption has many faces in this State/City. Get Rid of them ALL !!!
J.J.Jr. THIS BUD IS FOR YOU. LOL
It is just too suspicious the way Fizgerald had to arrest Blago so suddenly. He should have just let him sell the seat to JJJ and then arrest them both. Something bigger is being covered up. JJJ and his father love the camera's but neither has been very public since Blago went down. Coincidence? I think not

No. No, they don't. They just keep moving forward to get what they want, like all criminals. And the public just allows it to happen.
The person who posted that he reason the US Attorney abruptly stopped the wire tap was because Obama was about to get caught on tape is probably correct.
Worked on many wire taps, unless the tap is discovered or someones life is in danger, they are not pulled down like this one was. Especially a Fed one.
They knew who was going to call and for what. They did not want to hear it or record it.
Does this family have no shame??!!
9/18/2009 02:32:00 AM
No shame at all, and they depend on the short memories of the voters.
It's worked for years.
One can still drink Budweiser and not support the jackson clan at the same time. Simply buy it outside of crook county as I do. My brother lives in Yorkville. When I go to see him, I stop at the local gin mill and buy a few cases. It's a double whammy. Jackson doesn't get my money nor does Urkle.
It came from Bushes AG. Stop the investigation before it got to Obama and embarrassed him. Take that to the bank.
Hey SCC,what is FLSA time or having it accumulate in comp time.so the FOP won a lawsiut that we cant use.what losers
What a sad state of affairs that Chicago is represented in Washington by JJ Jr, Black Panther Rush, Danny Davis, Gutierrez, Jan "Pelosi" Schakowsky, Blago's guy Roland Burris and "Turban" Durbin. Add the evil Shortshanks, the Toddler and the City Council. The Messiah and the inmates have taken over the asylum. We are so f--ked.
I spewed my coffee after reading the latest comments on "MAURER FIRED". He should sue. And Northside is taking no prisoners. Funny stuff.

Excellent! My first laugh of the day with my first cop of Joe in hand!
if jesse jackass goes down, i will have a few buds, and i will go out and buy blagos book :)
its just too good to be true........
I'd love to see both/either Jackson go down in flames.
Our next mayor.
I hear that Operation Push is paying JJ Sr's child support. Or the contributors to O.P. are. How's that baby doin?
Lil Shakedown
he'll be back to steal your tax dollars too.
I refuse to consume Budweiser because the JJ family is part of the company. They're fucking extortionist's of the worst kind.
Rat em out Rod!!
Will the feds also get jesse the father,master of extorsion? How about the billions in federal money he has stolen over the years,from the 60's operation breadbasket to now! The weak owners of budweiser who gave jesse other goofy son the most lucrative franchise for FREE! scared of a bullshit jesse boycott? Come on feds keep the train rolling "don't back down"!
I wouldn't be surprised that Obama's on the tape. Fitz took Blago down early and deleted the tape. Now Obama owes him BIG TIME.

Big Surprise
Remember JJ's "Bud's a dud" campaign?
JJ started a boycott of Budweiser until they forked over an entire distributorship (Near North) to one of JJ's moron sons.
Other than a free one here and there I have never bought another Bud product since. And won't!

Someday, when all statutes of limitations have expired, Fitzgerald will write a book. He'll make millions and we'll know we were betrayed.
JJ has a lot of connections to ACORN and many of its other branches that are hidden for legal and tax purposes.
The feds might also want to connect the dots to his wife.
hey jr, this buds for you!
OT: How about the new order coming out about the 'How's my Driving, call......' stickers for the squad cars. Who's brillent idea was this. Just another way to get the police haters to make another beef on a officer. Time to play fireman and sit in a corner until a call comes in.
who is the sergeant over in mass transit "stalking" mark buehrle for an autograph? what an embarrassment!
For the P.O.who stated he hope's the rests of his time on this job goes quick.Dude you only have one life to live so why are you wishing it away.If you are so unhappy you need to start changing your life big time.Find something else to do that will make you happy.Don't just wake up every day and hope the day goes by fast.You will wake up one day and find you wished your whole life away.
jj jr is a p.o.s. just like his fatha. he needs to get 86ed along with urkel, and daley.
The best picture from the past is Jesse Jackson posing in a group photo with the Black Panthers, oh yes Dont forget Jesse was on the motel balcony with Martin Luther King when he shot and killed. And the next day Jesse was addressing the Chicago City Council with his blood stained clothes from that event. Jesse Jr must have used his father as mentor believing that the Jacksons are never questioned. Hey Rod, you have the evidence to bring them down.
Jackson Jr. AND BURRIS most corrupt.
Shortshanks must be a little please at this, it may knock out two potential mayoral candidates, and he may get to annoint the successors.
When is the U.S. Attorney going to get the Evil Little Man?
Let not forget about ACORN. 55 million a year in our tax dollars, to due what? How is the Jackson crime family involved with them. All Senators except 7 voted to stop funding ACORN with our tax dollars. Who were part of the 7;
two of our own Durbin and Burris. Illinois the only state with both Senators voting to fund ACORN. What an embarrassment. Durbin was just re-elected for another six years, but vote REPUBLICAN when Burris leaves.
I was wondering when they'd get around to him. Glad to hear he's still being investigated.
Read "Shakedown" and come back to this posting. Unfuckingbelievable.

Sounds like an "Executive" order from the POTUS.
He didn't want to have to erase/order erased any tapes he was on.
Tricky Dick Nixon taught him well !
If you put human skeletal remains in a 55 gallon drum of hydrochloric acid, how long would it take to dissolve into mush if stored at room temperature?

9/18/2009 10:24:00 AM
There's no way he's gonna live that long. He's gonna OD on aspirin or die in a single vehicle, unwitnessed car crash well before any book could be written.
Not that it'll matter, we're gonna be burning Obama bucks for warmth and scavenging for food like Zimbabwe within 5 years anyways.
The inmates are in charge.
What's the big news? Just another lying, thieving, nepotist, prick Cook County/Shitcago DemocRAT Politician in action.
Was patrick fitzgerald covering up for Obama, the Ringleader of this Circus of crime and corruption? Was he then promoted, strategically out of the Chicagoland Area by Obama and company?
Is the U.S. Attorneys Office Corrupt?
Inquiring minds want to know.
Pray that Blago doesn't take or isn't "given" too many aspirins.
Trouble is, the "G" is in on the cover-up.

Corruption all the way from the office of the President, and U.S. Attorneys Office a willing accomplice.
FEDS=RICO
The Jackson family has done so much for the city. Their music is great. I pray this is not true and does not impact this great cities bid for the olympics.
Blago is innocent and so was Mr.Ryan but he still got convicted. It's not right what they did to OJ.
it was just a matter of time before JJ Sr over-reached and got caught.
Maybe he can be the third man on Blago's and Ryan's car (i.e. prison cell)
Couldn't happen to a nicer family, huh? I can name three
Daley,
Burke, and
Madigan families
The best picture from the past is Jesse Jackson posing in a group photo with the Black Panthers,
That photo is not the Panthers, but rather Jesse Sr. is seated cross-legged between the knees of Jeff Fort (BPSN/ El-Rukn's) seated in a "Throne". To the right of Fort, also seated above jesse is Mickey Cogwell (BPSN/ Mickey Cobra's)
Great Company... and the media keeps on babying them!... Oh and by the way, this photo is from the front page of the Daily Defender, the African American owned newspaper that had the balls to publish it... NEVER seen in the Scum Times or Tribune, who continue to coddle the family even today!
How about we just take both down to be safe.
9/18/2009 01:05:00 AM
Amen.
How was the Christopher Kelly death ruled a suicide so quickly?
No toxicology report and yeta ruling?
I say that someone wanted him dead.
Maybe Blago or De Mare or someone in Washington DC
Any opinions??
Lets get ready to vote. Drive every little old woman and your family members to vote in the next election. Vote for "our" candidates. The time is right for a vein of new blood to un-f**k our city and county.
"How about the new order coming out about the 'How's my Driving, call......' stickers for the squad cars. Who's brillent idea was this."
EVEN MONEY IT'S PETE BRUSTS BRILLIANT IDEA. HE HAS TO JUSTIFY HIS 6 FIGURE SALARY & WEARING THE UNIFORM ANY CHANCE HE GETS...
As always, I suggest reading "Shakedown. Exposing the real Jesse Jackson" By Kenneth Timmerman.
All factual and documented, there are about 100 pages, citing the authors sources. Not a hatchet job for all you fools that think JJ walks on water.
Michelle Malkins book "Culture of corruption" details the "political mobsters" Obama, axelrod, and emmanuel.
What shitbirds!

Are they any different than the Daley, Burke,, Banks, Mell, Madigan, Lipinski, Hynes or Stroger family?
The sheep keep getting shorn, the political despot anoints his son (or daughter) and we keep thinking we live in a democratically elected republic.
WE are the fools!
This is why the guillotine was invented! We make fun of the French but at one time they knew how to handle leaders like we now have in Illinois.
I laugh at the gossip column type excitement that accompanies announcement of police department brass moves, as if any move will make any difference to any of us.
Meet the new boss
Same as the old boss

Not sure. I'll check my Hoffa mutton drum and let you know. Got one ready to go for Usama Bin Laden, but I can't find the sob!
Will they finally bust the jackson crime family? Will they ever bust the daley crime synicate?
Remember how JJ sr. got off as an unindicted coconspirator in Noah Robinson's trial? The US attorney refused to seek an indictment against the big POS. Let's hope the little POS pays for that now.
EVEN MONEY IT'S PETE BRUSTS BRILLIANT IDEA. HE HAS TO JUSTIFY HIS 6 FIGURE SALARY & WEARING THE UNIFORM ANY CHANCE HE GETS...
What is this moron doing coming up with any ideas? He should be thinking how to sweep his last little debacle with his girlfriend Ruthie under the table...
Gratuities Anyone???
I think the IG ought to launch a residency investigation of the alderman who lives in Washington, oops, they're not allowed to.
