Rahm Blagojevich

Obama's excuse for his Chicago-style hit on Joe Sestak: Clinton did it (and, anyway, everyone does it). Rod Blagojevich must be the happiest man in America today. No less than the White House Counsel laid out the case that Blago (and Rahm) did nothing wrong. Did Blago's bag man have the same "unimpeachable" reputation for truthfulness and integrity as did Rahm's?

Rahm Blagojevich   
By Asher Embry

It's not since Rod Blagojevich
That we've been served a fib so rich.
Each anecdote we're asked to parse
Makes clear Rahm's tale's a massive farce.
If you still think this whopper's true,
Recall Lewinsky's dress of blue.

Well, THAT was worth the 3-month wait . . I guess it all depends on what the meaning of "job" is. I wonder when someone is going to ask the WH how this is different from what Blago did. This doesn't even come close to passing the smell test (and Rahm knows how bad a dead fish smells).

'Truth' is evolutionary to the Libs. It makes sense that tales of their deeds 'evolve' as needed to cover the legal bases.

The longshot of IMPEACHMENT is negated by [1] the administration/white house controls the audio tapes containing anything that may have been said that could be used as evidence in a court case and[2] with the corrupt bunch of Democrats now in control of congress, there is no way in Hades that they'll allow an impeachment proceding to be initiated [their corruption even provents the sunshining of the evidence within the Justice Dept concerning former IG Geral Walpin, the New Black Panther dismissal by Justice; alsong with various and sundry other DELAYED requests for information by this group of thugs]. The greatest chance for success would come from attempting to assist Blogo's legal team in their pursuit of subpeneas for testamony by THE CHOSEN ONE or his W/H staff [all members of the Chicago Mafioso clan]!!!!!!
