Blago-gate

[felix]

Another questionable Obama link.

I tried to warn folks about looking for a reformer from the cesspool of politics that is Illinois and in particular Chicago, my home town.

So now we have the questionable relationships; Obama/Rev Wright, Obama/Ayers, Obama/Rezko and now Obama/Blago.

Not surprisingly his first response with each questionable tie was to either deny a relationship with or down play that relationship than have to back pedal on that statement.

First, he didn’t know Wright to have made any controversial statements and said he could no less abandon him than to abandon his own Grandmother. Then as it turned out Wright’s views were available even on his church website. The heat was turned up and Obam dumped his long time friend and pastor.

Next, he called Ayers a just a fellow from the neighborhood. Then we find out that he sat on boards with Ayers and even managed millions given to him from Ayers Annenberg grant. The main stream media didn’t think this was a story….. until after the election. Ayers who was never interviewed before the election has been on network interviews at least twice post election.

Then there is Rezko. The convicted political fixer. Obama’s next door neighbor and political and personal benefactor. The media ignored this story as well. Rezko found Obama jobs, money and sold him his property at a deep discount.

Why wasn’t anybody in the main stream media outside of Chicago interested why and how was this sweetheart deal with a convisted felon conceived?

Now there’s Blago. Our 4th crooked Governor in my lifetime. A guy known to be dirty even before his election. A self proclaimed reformer, like Obama, who is worse than any of us has ever seen.

Who do you think was the first Illinois pol to endorse Blago for Illinois Governor in 2003?

Obama.

Who do you think was the first Illinois pol to support Obama for potus?

Of course, it was Blago.

Not surprising because they are both the products of convicted felon and political fixer, Rezko.

Now we have Axelrod (Obama’s campaign chief) speaking on November 23rd saying Obama had been in contact multiple times with Blago about the vacant Senate seat and Obama denying he had any contact with Blago.

Which is it?

Is it both?

Is Obama playing semantics meaning he hadn’t spoke with Blago personally?

Will we get the answers?

What’s interesting though is whether or not Obama or his staff was aware of Blago trying to auction off the Senate seat and did nothing about it. It’s really hard to think they didn’t know what Blago was up to.

Back in the days of Watergate being knowledgeable of a crime but doing nothing about that was enough to get indicted.

Well I hope you Obama voters are happy.

So far he has been, more of the same, doing exactly what Bush would have done in response to the economy in a third term than bringing any change. Progressives are already wondering what happened to the guy they voted for and are not pleased.

Add to that there’s Obama’s past. Even taken at it’s best his past brings into question his judgment with regard to friends, associates and business relationships.

Do you like his judgment now?

Felix: Illinois should adopt a new state motto when it comes to politics: “Hey, at least we’re not as bad as Louisiana!”.

I found it interesting to watch Obama try to explain the Rezko real estate deal during an interview. Both Obama and his wife Michelle were involved in the deal and both of them are lawyers and yet Obama seemed extremely hard pressed to explain what, by his own admission, was a “simple” deal between he and Rezko.

My dad and my uncle both hail from Chicago and I heard plenty of stories when I was a kid about how “things got done” there.

Obama is already creating plenty of distance between he and Gov. Rod. The “splatter factor” on this one has the potential to do him a lot of damage, especially if Axelrod’s comments prove true (and anyone in the MSM is willing to cover the story).

Obviously any Governor and Senator from the same state will have contact with each other, but trying to pin this scandal on Obama is tenuous. It’s pretty clear to anyone who has read the transcripts that Blago hated “motherfucker” Obama and was ready to go to war with him.

You couldn’t ask for a better script.. this shit is GOLDEN.

The problem for Obama is that Obama and Blago had a very close link in the person of Rezko. He was Obama’s next door neighbor!

I don’t think this will be swept under the rug again by the media.
