Obama on Governor Blagojevich/Rahm Emanuel


Judicial Watch's President Tom Fitton wrote:

The Blagojevich scandal is not going to go away. The Chicago Tribune reported last Saturday that "communications between [incoming White House Chief of Staff Rahm] Emanuel and the Blagojevich administration were captured on court-approved wiretaps." Moreover, it appears Emanuel, at Obama's urging, presented Blagojevich's representatives with a list of preferred Senate appointees.

Of course, neither Obama nor Emanuel are commenting on any of this, hiding behind the old "I'm not going to comment on an ongoing investigation" line. Obama even told one reporter who dared ask about the scandal earlier this week "don't waste your question." (You can watch the video here and below.) So much for openness, integrity and transparency. More information may be dumped over Christmas, so stay alert.

THIS AMAZING (YET TYPICAL) RESPONSE FROM A REPUBLICAN HOUSE MEMBER (IDAHO CONG SIMPSON) -- THE 3 BRANCHES OF GOVT ARE NOW PERFECTLY WILLING TO CONTINUE WITHOUT A CONSTITUTION:--

"You mentioned your opinion on the citizenship of President-elect Obama. The Supreme Court has turned down the appeal that questioned the eligibility of President-elect Obama to hold the office of President. The Court did not comment on its order. Barack Obama will be inaugurated as the 44th President of the United States on January 20, 2009. I look forward to working with the new administration to continue serving Idahoans throughout the 111th Congress."
