    • in context are we to believe that every other Chicago politican is dirty, but Obama has no soil at all on him? Isn't that what Bush did? Try to divert and deflect? And isn't that what his supporters did the same as what some Obama supporters now do? Classifying any questioning at all of Obama as "bashing?" After eight years of deflection, diversion, and lies, I'm not about to put up with anymore.

      It is not illegal to say you prefer a candidate. It is illegal to pay or exchange illegal favors. Blago says Obama is a F>>>>>>>>>>g whatever for not wanting to play and that was on tape and played.
      Blago is another story entirely and he may slip by because Fitzgerald stopped him before he completed the sale of the Senate seat.

    • Again this amazes me. Obama own laywer has cleared him and his staff of any wrong doing.....give me a freakin break the next time I get arrested can I hire someone to clear me too. Do you people really see nothing wrong with this. is this acceptable to you all. Obama will make all this go away for his fellow crooked illinois political buddy and nothing will happen because obama doesnt want his boys to be mixed up in illegal shit before he takes office.......nice change barry--- you have fooled millions---- but not me

      There is absolutely nothing wrong with Obama or one of his spokespersons telling Blago that they prefer a certain person for the Senate, as long as there was no quid pro quo.
      Recall Blago called Obama a F>>>>>>>>>>>g .....for not playing pay go. And that is on tape.

      oh I agree with you on that. I dont think he did anything wrong but to have your own laywer clear you of any wrong doing just sounds a little strange to me. I know that has never flown in any courts I have been in. I think it would just be better for him if he just let happen whatever is going to happen and if he did nothing wrong....and again im sure he didnt....he wouldnt be in any trouble. thats like showing up with a note from your mom wriiten in your own handwriting excusing you from school the day before
