i dont think it will affect obama too much other than the fact that it's his seat =p and if anyone wants to know if he bought his seat, just check bank records, etc etc etc.

Major difference---Nixon wasn't innocent. He went WAY overboard to win in a landslide an election he would have won anyway.

But you guys have fun for the next eight years, one month and 10 ten days. Or maybe get a hobby.

The IL governor is an egregious case, but hardly a new chapter, let alone the beginning.

And not even close to the worst cases history has witnessed.

Next time, consider reading the thread first.

It will at least make you unique.

Status: offline 		Funny how two political enemies are now bedfellows according to CL. If you'll look into CL's posts here you'll find that a couple of months back he was complaining the Obama was close with Emil Jones, then majority leader of the state senate. Illinois has had a non functioning government the last several years because the governor and the legislative leaders don't get along.

So now CL would have youbelieve that Obama, an Emil Jones supporter, is somehow friendly with the governor. Which is patently ridiculous.

Then you have the fact that Obama's prefered choice as his replacement, Valerie Jarret, withdrew from consideration rather than play along with the governor.

But somehow this is a scandal equivalent to watergate? please.

Yea, but where is the corruption you speak of???

Taking campaign contributions from foreign nationals.
Doing business with Tony Rezko and helping that crook use government money to build uninhabitable slums.
Consorting with known terrorists.
Getting in bed with Blagojevich himself.

All well documented in even mainstream press, btw.



Correction:  All well discredited in the mainstream press.  But admittedly still screeched about in wingnut blogs.

Geez you are reaching if this is your "evidence" of corruption.

Nah.
