"A source with the Obama camp strongly denied Emanuel spoke with the governor directly about the seat, saying Emanuel only spoke with Blagojevich once recently to say he was taking the chief of staff post. But sources with knowledge of the investigation said Blagojevich told his aides about the calls with Emanuel and sometimes gave them directions afterward. Sources said that early on, Emanuel pushed for the appointment of Jarrett to the governor and his staff and asked that it be done by a certain date. At least some of the conversations between Emanuel and Blagojevich were likely caught on tape, sources said." Bury your head in the sand on this but this IS a story because Obama IS the President and he IS connected with this entire mess. Not to mention his people DID lie initially about their involvment and when the president elects staff lies about something it makes me wonder why exactly they did so. Perhaps they were just covering their tracks and figured deny, deny, deny, until they were told that they had tapes with their guys where then Obama made the call to correct the "mistake". Like I said before imagine the reaction from the media if the Republicans were the crooked party. |

The rush by the right to make sure that justice is done here and that no one Obama is involved with has done anything wrong is exemplary. But...where the F*ck have you been the last 8 years? |

screw that tactic. louisiana has a history of corruption and a republican governor. by implication bobby jindal is clearly guilty of republican corruption. |

![]() I just think Democrats are being unusually touchy over this subject. Casting stones at the RNC over a Democratic scandal where there are connections between a crooked Gov and the President elect over his Senate seat is a stretch. Especially considering that the story is far from completely told. Like I said before maybe Obama will come out smelling like a rose.

Bush is old news and yes Obama is going to be held to that standard as is every president or Senate leader in the future. I began to reply in this post to Riot's partisan blaming of th RNC for this story being covered. Like the media wouldnt run with this especially in a slow news period where the financial stories and auto industry peices have grown monotonous. If Bush's chief of staff had 21 taped conversations with a Governor who was accused of selling a Senate seat among other things you dont think that would be a huge story? Hell the guy throwing shoes at Bush has been covered more extensively outside of Chicago than the Blago story. I have no outrage over the situation though i would love to know what Emmanuel and Obama knew about this guy. |
