A couple of stories that I'd linked to earlier today -- both reporting on Obama's Nov. 5 meeting with Gov. Rod Blagojevich -- have disappeared from the Internet, as did a video of David Axelrod saying that Obama had talked to Blagojevich.
Jammie Wearing Fool and Gateway Pundit are both reporting on that Cover-Up You Can Believe In. Ed Morrissey finds Team Obama busy deleting questions about the Blagojevich scandl from the transition Web site.
Meanwhile, WSJ's Cam Simpson notes that the two-hour call on Nov. 10 is the focus of journalistic curiosity, because it was in that call that Blagojevich called Obama a "motherf----r" and immediately afterwards that Obama aide "Senate Candidate 1" Valerie Jarrett (a favorite of SEIU) was withdrawn from contention for the seat.
Also, Jesse Jackson Sr. -- who may have been the guy offering money to get Jesse Jr. appointed to the Senate -- has lawyered up.
Let the Rod Blagojevich Resignation Countdown begin. I'll go ahead and stake my bet that Blagojevich resigns about 8 p.m. ET Friday -- too late to make the 6 p.m. news in Chicago, in other words.

ReplyDeleteSeems to me like that would be a good thing.
But I'm sure it won't stop the Cons from erecting what is sure to be the biggest mountain ever built out of a molehill.
What I gather so far from all the journalistic evidence is that perhaps Team Obama put the final nail in Blogo's coffin: I think they ratted him out to Fitzgerald and Co.( might explain the accelerated progress of the investigation after 5 years on his ass).
At best Obama upheld the law and looks like a bastion of principled leadership.
At worst he's a snitch.
Chicago politics with a twist?
Obama: I ...Did....not...have...a...coversation...with....that....governor.
