Just another crooked Democrat from the same corrupt Chicago political machine that manufactured Barak "The Messiah" Obama. "CHICAGO (Reuters) - Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich was arrested on corruption charges on Tuesday, including trying to sell the U.S. Senate seat vacated by fellow Democrat President-elect Barack Obama, federal prosecutors said. While Obama has long distanced himself from the governor -- who has been under investigation on other issues for months -- Blagojevich's arrest was likely to be an embarrassment to the president-elect, who takes office on January 20 The case shines a light once again on old-style corruption in the Chicago political caldron from which Obama emerged. "The breadth of corruption laid out in these charges is staggering," U.S. Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald, the federal prosecutor, said in a statement. Blagojevich was also accused of threatening to withhold state assistance to the Tribune Company in connection with the sale of the Chicago Cubs' baseball home, Wrigley Field, in order "to induce the firing of Chicago Tribune editorial board members sharply critical" of him. The 51-year-old Blagojevich and his chief of staff, John Harris, were charged in a federal complaint with conspiracy to commit mail and wire fraud and solicitation of bribery. Both were taken into custody at their homes in Chicago. In Illinois, the governor selects a successor when there is a mid-term vacancy in the U.S. Senate. Obama resigned from the Senate soon after winning the November 4 presidential election. "FOR SALE" SIGN In his statement, Fitzgerald said the charges "allege that Blagojevich put a 'for sale' sign on the naming of a United States senator; involved himself personally in pay-to-play schemes with the urgency of a salesman meeting his annual sales target; and corruptly used his office in an effort to trample editorial voices of criticism." Blagojevich allegedly was caught on court-authorized wiretaps during the last month. He was seeking a "substantial" salary for himself at a nonprofit foundation or union affiliated organization, a spot on a corporate board for his wife, promises of campaign cash, as well as a cabinet post or ambassadorship in exchange for his Senate choice, an FBI affidavit said. It was unclear what would happen now to the selection of a successor to Obama, although the spot would be certain to go to a Democrat. Democrats, with independent allies, will hold at least 58 seats in the 100-seat Senate when the new Congress convenes in early January. A Minnesota Senate seat is still undecided. Blagojevich, in his second term, is the latest in a string of Illinois governors to run afoul of the law. His immediate predecessor, George Ryan, is in jail following a federal corruption conviction. "Many, including myself, thought that the recent conviction of a former governor would usher in a new era of honesty and reform in Illinois politics," Robert D. Grant, Special Agent-in-Charge of the Chicago Office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, said in a statement. "Clearly, the charges announced today reveal that the office of the Governor has become nothing more than a vehicle for self-enrichment, unrestricted by party affiliation and taking Illinois politics to a new low." HEFTY PRISON TERM POSSIBLE If Blagojevich is convicted, each mail and wire fraud charge carries a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison while each bribery charge carries a maximum sentence of 10 years in prison. Each count carries a maximum fine of $250,000. Blagojevich was born in Chicago to a working-class Serbian immigrant family, working odd jobs and in a meatpacking plant to get through college. He was elected to the Illinois state House in 1992 and later won a seat in the U.S. Congress that had been held by another politician who ran afoul of the law, Dan Rostenkowski. He became Illinois' first Democratic governor in nearly 30 years when he replaced Ryan in 2003, on a platform of reform. But his popularity has descended to an all-time low after wrangles with fellow Democrats in the state legislature, some of whom had threatened him with impeachment.

> Just another crooked Democrat from the same corrupt Chicago political > machine that manufactured Barak "The Messiah" Obama. Rod Blagojevich was disliked within his own party, was kept at arms length by Obama, and was unpopular among the electorate. He's also a crook, as well as a bit of a nutcase, and I'm glad he was busted, as are many Democrats. Some Republicans are attempting to take cheap shots in an attempt to connect him with Obama, but I doubt it will fly. I don't think it will have much effect on Obama's popularity one way or the other. ______________________________________________________________________ * kill-files, watch-lists, favorites, and more.. www.recgroups.com

But, just for the record, Obama campaigned heavily for Blagojevich, even after his initial corruption charges and the two were think as thieves (pun intended). Obama's own campaign manager (Axelrod) said Obama had personal conversations with Blagojevich about who would fill his vacant Senate seat. The fact that Obama lied about having the conversation won't matter. Obama was also deeply involved with Tony Rezko who was crooked as a cork screw in his own right, and was Blagojevich's bag man and he got off scot free on that one too. Obama is up to his neck in corrupt Chicago politics. Hell bucko, the Chicago Democrat political machine created Obama. But the sad fact is, Obama is too big to fail and there isn't any one in the liberal main stream media with the balls, or interest, to investigate him any way. Irish Mike

It is when the discussion is about a deal between Blab and Obama to get Obama's choice appointed to his senate seat. All we may know from the taped conversation is that Obama didn't like the price of the deal; Blag wanted Health and Human Services and a job for his wife (ambassador?) It doesn't mean Obama wasn't open to "making a deal", or that a deal wasn't negotiated and then fell through. _________________________________________________________ Posted via the -Web to Usenet- forums at http://www.pokermagazine.com Visit www.pokermagazine.com

The idea that Obama resigned his Senate seat but had no conversations about his replacement is about as likely as him sitting in Jeremiah Wright's pews for 20 years and never hearing a racist, anti-American or anti-Semetic comment. But the sad truth is, no one is going to lay a finger on The Messiah. Obama and Blagojevich are both snakes. Obama is a big snake and Blagojevich is a little snake.

Translation: You don't have your head in the Obama kool aid bucket and I hate you for it. When you point out how ridiculous it is for me to believe that Obama sat in Jeremiah Wright's pews for 20 years and never heard a racist, anti-American or anti-Semitic comment, it makes me realize I'm stupid. And when you point out that one of Obama's own campaign workers did a TV interview and said Obama did have a conversation with Blagojevich about who should fill his vacant Senate seat, it forces me to realize that Obama just got caught in another lie. I hate you for that and so I ignore these facts and make a post saying you're a "big slimy snake". Sorry for pointing out Obama's lies Patrick, and the fact that you believing them makes you a brain dead idiot. Irish Mike Proud to be one of the 55,000,000+ Americans who did not vote for Obama.

In a conversation with Harris on November 11, the charges state, Blagojevich said he knew that the President-elect wanted Senate Candidate 1 for the open seat but "they're not willing to give me anything except appreciation. Fuck them." --from the statement of the prosecuting US attorney http://tpmmuckraker.talkingpointsmemo.com/2008/12/feds_obama_wouldnt_play_ball_w.php

A big difference I see is that when a corrupt Democrat gets nailed, pretty much the entirety of the rest of the Democrats think it's a Good Thing and are happy to see him depart their ranks. Corrupt Republican gets busted and the rest of the Republicans circle the wagons and make excuses. Mike is a prime example. Jim

Not perjury, but lying to law enforcement agents during investigations is a crime. That's just one reason why no one with a brain would ever make any statement to law enforcement other than, "I want to consult with a lawyer before I make any statement."

Of course, in the case of Scooter Libby, he was a main focus of the investigation. The investigators were looking to nail Libby wih anything because he was a primary target. In the case of just an ordinary person who they're questioning, you can just say that you don't know anything about it. Nothing will happen. Perjury charges are actually pretty rare, even for people who are called to the stand and are shown to be inconsistent. For perjury charges to be brought, it really has to have to do with a very important, substantive part of the case. Look at the example of Kato Kalin. He was an on-site witnesss and pretty much lied about all he did know, but nothing happened with regard to charging Kalin; because there was nothing in it for the prosecutors to go after Kalin. Kalin could have just about denied knowing anything and nothing would happen to him. It was actually surprising that he talked as much as he did. From Kalin's point of view, he should have just kept his mouth shut, completely. But then, he's not the brightest guy in the world, either. _________________________________________________________ Posted via the -Web to Usenet- forums at http://www.pokermagazine.com Visit www.pokermagazine.com

The entire investigation was set up to find out who outed Plame's identity to Robert Novak. At the beginning, Libby was most definitely NOT the primary target. The Target/Targets were anyone in the Bush Administration who could have done the Dirty Deed. Karl Rove was the most desirable scapegoat. Leftists were positively salivating at the thought of Rove "frogmarched" off the scene. Very early on in the investigation, Fitzgerald KNEW that the outer in question happened to be one Richard Armitage, whose superior was none other than Colin Powell. Both of them STFU during the entire investigation. Fitzgerald continued on until he found someone to convict of something, anything, namely one Scooter Libby, who lied to Federal investigators about some aspect of the case. That is the only conviction that Fitzgerald was able to get. Just to repeat, it was not Perjury (Lying to a Jury), it was about lying to Federal investigators (A crime in itself.) Why an experienced lawyer like Libby would have made that mistake is still a mystery. James Hankins was absolutely correct when he told you that. HonestTaGawd, Travel. Seriously, you need to do your Due Diligence and get your facts straight before you blather on. >In the case of just an ordinary person who they're questioning, you can >just say that you don't know anything about it.

Turbo, Travel is a right wing nut bag. He's got no interest in honesty, or truth, fact, or most likely scenarios. He cares about his philosophy, regardless. If he were a left wing nut bag you'd skewer him without mercy. Why should he be exempt if you occasionally share his view?

Perjury is when the person is placed under oath and lies to a court or other person in a proceeding (as you have listed). The lying to a law enforcement officer is different. If an FBI agent comes to your house and wants to question you about something and you give a statement wherein you lie, it's a crime, but it's not perjury (because you are not placed under oath). It's more along the lines of obstruction of justice, but like I said, the best course is to say nothing other than you want to speak to an attorney.

You make a valid point bucko but what are the odds that any investigator is ever going to ask The Messiah that question? The answer is slim or none - and slim just left town. Of course I know we can count on Chris "a thrill rran up my leg when I heard Obama speak" Matthews, Keith Obermann and the unbiased journalists at MSNBC to report accurately and fully on The Messiah's involvement in this scandal [LOL!]. The beauty part is listening to Obama endorse Blag (even after the early corruption investigation) and say how his main objective "is to get Blag elected Goveneror". Seriously, the chances that Obama didn't discuss his vacant senate seat with Blag are almost as good as him sitting in Jeremish Wright's church for 20 years and never hearing a racist, anti-American or anti-Semetic comment.

Which would be about on a par with the chances that you sat in those Catholic pews all those years and never noticed that the priest were buggering some of your classmates. But I seem to remember that you are a stout defender of the Catholic Church. How can that be? I guess it just goes to show that some of these analogies aren't very accurate, eh?

Patrick, at first I just dismissed you as another anti-Catholic bigot. But based on your obsession with "buggering" young boys, I now believe you are a pedophile.

Estimated at 500 visits. I've been a Catholic all my life and I've lived in about ten different parishes. Plus, I've been in many other Catholic churches for Mass when traveling, vacationing, etc. I have never heard any Priest do a racist, anti-American or anti-Semitic sermon. If I did, I would never set foot in that particular church again. In my parish church every Mass includes prayers for all of our political leaders, for peace in the world and for the safety of the men and women serving in our military. I'm sorry but no one sits in a church with their wife and children for twenty years unless they agree with what their pastor is preaching - and that includes Barack Obama. I have absolutely no doubt that if Jeremiah Wright's racist, anti-American, anti-Jewish rants had not been made public, Obama would still be sitting in those pews today. And that speaks volumes about the man's character - or lack there of. Irish Mike

Something like that isn't exactly declared from the pulpit. "You carrying IM's water these days?" I'm addressing your biased vitriol and gross misrepresentation in characterizing the Catholic Church from your bigoted viewpoint. "It's apparently not like you can just go to another Catholic church down the street," Why not? ""as the problem is endemic in the whole church," No it isn't. Count the number of convictions and then count the total number of priests. The difference that remains are the innocent. "at least the American branch. And while it may not be exactly declared from the pulpit, when entire dioceses are declaring bankruptcy because of the burder of lost pedophile lawsuits," You're trying to say that everyone should buy into a left wing created which hunt frenzy and believe that every priest is guilty of something. "I would expect it to be common knowledge what is going on." It is common knowledge: the left wing has been attacking American religion. They've been trying to destroy the protestant religion by pumping up stories of various preachers' occasional sexual indiscretions for decades. Funny how something like that always makes the lead story in the media. Not to mention the ridiculing of religion and religious figures (priests nuns, white reverends etc., etc.) in movies, television and the general news media. Oh, and on the internet. > There was a rabbi that was caught on the NBC "Catch A Predator" show. > Does that mean all jews should no longer go to all synagogues? "We're not talking about a single priest," No, you're just singling-out and targeting the Catholic Church at the moment. "but apparently some 4% of them -- a figure which is approximately 40 times what IM thought the level of transgression was." What we're talking about is your religion bigotry. What percentage of the Democrats of congress were part of the House Post Office scandal? Why is there still a Democrat party? > The difference is that Obama didn't change his venue of worship, but > remained at the racist "Reverend" Wright's particular church for twenty > years. Estimated at 500 visits. "So what?" So, he supports racism against whites. He also supports anti America doctrine in general. That's what.

Sorry, no pedophilia here. Seriously, can't you tell that I'm actually curious why you are so intolerant of Obama's church conduct while at the same time you are very forgiving of your own. What should a devout religious person do when they go to church and hear racist statements or hear of their priests buggering little boys? Apparently, in your eyes the former is terribly wrong, the latter not so much so. That seems passing strange. (BTW, an ignorant racist such as yourself should know how to spell anti-Semitic. It will tend to camouflage the ignorance.)

"Kyle T. Jones" > Go back and read the three back-n-forth posts between Patrick and Mike > leading into your own reply. Are they not arguing about whether or not > Mike is being a hypocrite? Shows how someone can read something a different way. I thought Patrick was making an analogy with a very interesting (false premise and poor) comparison with his comment: "Which would be about on a par with the chances that you sat in those Catholic pews all those years and never noticed that the priest were buggering some of your classmates." I thought his analogy was fatally flawed and therefore did not "see" that the point he was trying to make was that Mike was a hypocrite at all. I do not think that what Mike said was in any way comparable to what Patrick said. So, using his analysis, I commented that unlike Obama, Mike would not have sat in the church with a priest preaching something like "buggering some of your classmates" ... I did not think that made Mike a hypocrite at all. (Mike may indeed be a hypocrite, but I just do not see that in him in this particular comparison.) But then, who am I to say what Mike might do or not do. Obama's situation is a fact ... Mike's situation is a hypothetical. I am not concerned much with Obama's church attendance ... I think many churches preach a lot of stuff that I am not interested in ... but I do not see how Mike's opinion about it proves much of anything.

You make a valid point bucko but what are the odds that any investigator is ever going to ask The Messiah that question? The answer is slim or none - Irish Mike ....................................................................... ......... What are you talking about? I made that point, not Hankins. Hankins stated that Obama knowing about the "deal for senate a appointment" but not reporting it, isn't a crime, and I stated that it is if he lies about it to investigators as he did to the Americam people at a press conference. _________________________________________________________ Posted via the -Web to Usenet- forums at http://www.pokermagazine.com Visit www.pokermagazine.com

It is not all of the answers but there are a few where "x says this is the answer." I supported Obama and still support him.. My biggest worry is Illinois politics will bring him down.

But you need not worry bucko. The Messiah is too big to fail. Short of shooting his closet racist wife dead, on camera, in front of a dozen (non-liberal) witnesses, there is nothing that can harm Obama. If people were stupid enough to believe him when he said he sat in those pews for 20 years and never heard Jeremiah Wright make a single racist, anti-American or anti-Semitic comment, they're stupid enough to believe any thing they're told.

Obama and Blag are both snakes but now Obama is a big snake and Blag is a little snake. What happens in the real world when a big snake and a little snake fight? The big snakes kills and eats the little snake. Bye, bye Blag. BTW, did you hear that Jesse Jackson Jr. was one of the scum bags trying to buy The Messiah's senate seat? Oh year, the investigators have him as a bidder. But you liberals need not worry. JJ jr. says it all lies and no one is going to risk having his old man play the race card on their ass - especially with The Messiah sitting in the oval office. Irish Mike

Someone should send you an e-mail about posting dumb, after the fact, apologist drivel. It seems they already fell into the trap of Axelrod contradicting Obama's national TV comments. Seems Obama didn't think of the possibility that someone on his team already admitted to "being in contact with Blag". It's a good thing the first one to ask Obama that question wasn't from the Justice Department. Good thing for Obama that is. _________________________________________________________ Posted via the -Web to Usenet- forums at http://www.pokermagazine.com Visit www.pokermagazine.com

Lots of questions, and, heck, since we're asking let's get really, really far-ranging, K? Hell, they probed and questioned Clinton into a corner and got him to lie about a BJ. Obama should be just more of the same. Let's get him under oath and ask him all the potentially embarrassing questions! Probe, probe, probe. Anyone probe deeply into Bush's stock-selling scandal? Plus, I'm still not convinced that he wasn't actually born in Jamaica, can someone set my mind at ease about that? I don't want to see registered copies, I WANT THE ORIGINAL. Nothing else will satisfy. There's a huge difference between keeping an eye on someone and what happened, as an easy example, to Clinton. So don't come back with any "well, you'd just like us not to ask any questions, wouldn't ya!" response. I'd like to ask appropriate questions. Forgive me if, after watching the frothing at the mouth over the last month because of some crank's unsupported assertion that Obama wasn't a natural born citizen, I'm not too eager to jump in with the same crowd on this issue. It's a "cry wolf" thing, think it through, you'll get there. Well, one things for certain. Someone asked: "OT: SCOTUS - > What now tin-foil hat wearing idiots?" and I guess we got our answer. You know, it's the venom and sticktoitness departments, where y'all have Orange beat cold. Obama must be destroyed. By any means necessary. I saw the far righties say this over and over leading into the actual vote. I guess they were serious. If this blows over, it'll be something else. If that doesn't pan out, it'll be something else. And all a month before the guy even starts the job. Of course, maybe there will be "hope" at that point. After wunderkind George, as soon as Obama assumes the presidency, he should pretty much be able to tell everyone to @#$% off, ignore any action or request from Congress, and, hell, throw the loudest naysayers in Gitmo just for good measure. After all, y'all are *terrifying* me into thinking my soon-to-be-president is a foreign Manchurian-type that's looking to destroy my entire way of life! You're trying to *terrify* people as a means of adjusting our politics. Gee, that's awfully close to some definition of something or other... </rant > <inhale> <exhale>. Sigh. Ok, had to get that off my chest! Cheers

If we want to talk about things to worry about with Obama, let's talk about some of his speeches. Let's talk about the disparaging tone he gets when he talks about modern America, and our pursuit of "nice suits, expensive cars". Let's talk about just how deeply his "spreading the wealth" message goes. Forget about it. I'm already talking about such with people. Just not here. Here, we get "Obama was born in Kenya" and "Obama went to school in BFE" threads. You keep up the fight, pickle. You seem to be finding a nice home out on the fringe. Me, I won't be fooled again. I stupidly allowed myself to be drawn into those birth certificate threads. As far as this recent lunacy about selling his seat, well, you know what they say: "There's an old saying in Tennessee — I know it's in Texas, probably in Tennessee — that says, fool me once, shame on — shame on you. Fool me — you can't get fooled again." Cheers. Have a blast.

Put up or shut up, pickle. Show me a single quote that backs up the bullshit you claim I'm arguing.

Perhaps, I spoke too harshly ... however, lately you have been bouncing around and diverting conversations in a way that I find quite frustrating. As for the above, you do not seem to understand that people that provide a service and people that produce a product are equally valuable and necessary. The person that provides a service might not produce a product like the farmer or shirt manufacturer, but the service worker must eat and wear clothes.

I do not "know" scott that well ... I react to the words "the answers" in situations like this. I may have misunderstood what he meant. Perhaps, when we see the video or read the transcript, we will have more information to ponder. (I still doubt we will have answers.)

No, the real story is that it's another one in the Democrat column. The Governor of New York and the governor of Illinois in a matter of months.

Leave the NY governor out of this. If he was a Swallower, instead of a Spitzer, he may not have cheated on his wife:). Would you rather have a Spitzer or a Swallower for a wife?

To be fair, Spitzer was actually fighting corporate crime, and would have been a good person to have in office during the current economic shakedown. Blago, on the other hand, is a worthless, corrupt piece of shit, to the core. > This clearly indicates that Democrats should be banned from public > office. Clearly.

> Clearly. Because no Republican has ever been caught doing anything illegal. LOL.. Maybe Blago will be able to share a jail cell with the previous Governor(Republican) from Illinois. ____________________________________________________________________ RecGroups : the community-oriented newsreader : www.recgroups.com

There is no love between Blago & Obama. You have absolutely no clue about Illinois & Chicago politics... Blago had a very poor relationship with Democrats in the state and was closely aligned with many Republicans. ________________________________________________________________________ looking for a better newsgroup-reader? - www.recgroups.com
