Did Rahm Tip Fitzgerald?
On the Fox's Chicago radio station the suggestion is being made that Blagocevich called Rahm.
Assuming that's true, the question is did is did Rahm call Fitzgerald and let him know?
Sure hope so, for Rahm's sake.

This is a mess! Now the loons will claim that Obama is dirty and he should step aside or whatever.
This will drive them to fever pitch. Having phrases used like Candidate A just fans the flames of
their twee imaginations.

1. Obama refused to play ball...
Fitz made that clear... So, while Freepers will say anything, why would the claim that Obama is dirty, stick?

4. Because they are Freepers.
They don't care about the facts. Look at the Supreme Court/Birth Certificate to do.
They will just stir things up because his name is on the same paper as the governor's.

8. It's been debunked to death that Obama's Birth Certificate is real and yet they still fight it
so seriously, you think they're going to be Fitz?

2. Wouldn't this...make Obama look better?

He refused to play ball with the corrupt governor of his home state--the majority of folks will think that takes major cojones.

It boils down to this: Obama made a suggestion as to who he wanted to see get his seat. Not an order, just a "Hey, you know who might be good? Joe/Josephine McWhoever". Blago got arrogant and started in with "WELL MISTER PRESIDENT IF YOU WANT ME TO DO THAT THEN YOU HAVE TO GIVE ME A REACHAROUND AND A NICE SLOPPY BLOWJOB" and Obama told him to go fuck himself.

3. Drudge shows a GJ suopena for Rezko file of 2006. Moron doesn't realize that just means
it was already looked at by Fitz. It's OLD news.

5. Get a grip--this has nothing to do with Obama--he's clean and apparently the tapes prove it
because he wouldn't play ball with Blaggy. Of course the freepers will crow that Obama is dirty but they have been doing that for a long time already.

7. Blago has been under investigation for at least two years
He's dirty, plain and simple. And remember, you're "info" came from fox. Consider the source.
