The media seems to be scrubbing their websites of the controversy. They seem to also forgot to ask Obama what staff members had dealings with Blago - afterall Obama did say "in a few days" he would be releasing the info. That was "a few" days ago.
You forgot that media mogul Sam Zell Chicago Tribune filed for bankruptcy only a few hours before Blago was arrested. Zell considers himself a conservative but has funded both conservative and liberal candidates. After a meeting with Clinton and Obama, Zell's LA Times endorsed a president for the first time, Obama. Zell himself has no expertise whatsoever in media. Supposedly the LA Times had some kind of controversial tape, which they admitted to having with Obama toasting Khalidi, but did not want to publish, sounds like blackmail to me, I wonder what's in it for the media and Zell come 1/20/2009.

You know, on second thought, whether or not he said that doesn't make a damn bit of difference. The fact that he's had so many questionable relations with so many shady people, and now with this one who appointed him his senate seat, should be enough to make people wonder. I'm just wondering why they're not saying it b'c I know they're thinking it. That was the point of this, as I made clear in my title.
I wasn't asking whether or not he said it. YOU were. YOU should've been the one to google it. Or were you too lazy?
If Obama said there's no need for a federal investigation on Blago, that the Illinois senate will handle it, why is no one admitting they may be suspicious as to whether Obama himself bought his senate seat? And if he did, would it be kept secret b'c of the chaos it would cause? I'm only asking what I'd ask of anyone in this position. We'd be stupid not to question it. Why is no one saying it out loud? Are they afraid to?
Ah, no, because Blago said horrible things about Obama and they dont' even associate? You wouldn't be a RIGHT WINGER grasping at straws, right?
This is why Google exists. But if you are too lazy to Google the question then I would suggest that if your interest is in getting information that in the future such a request be made in the form of a question, as in:
Did Obama say that there was no need for a Federal investigation of Blagojevich?
And the question then wouldn't segue into a new accusation written to appear as an aspersion.
Oh you and your logic and common sense! You silly , boy! That's not how the OP operates...nor any other troll
And did you notice the subsequent post...proving I'm right about the troll thing

But dear boy, Obama wasn't appointed, he was elected.
As for being high and mighty, dude, when it comes to debating some of you folks one doesn't have to be higher than knee high to a grasshopper and no more mighty than a featherweight.

Why wait for inauguration? The right wing sneer, smear & fear machine is getting a head start.
