Obama’s Team Claims Rahm Emanuel Only Had One Conversation With Blagojevich

President-elect Obama had an internal investigation on his staff and on Rahm Emanuel in particular to find out if there was any wrong doing within his staff in the pay to play scheme that Democrat governor Rod Blagojevich was conducting to fill Obama’s vacant senate seat.

 Guess what he found? He found that Rahm Emanuel only had one conversation with the disgraced governor of Illinois and it didn’t involve talk about Obama’s senate vacancy. Who woulda thunk it? And we know that this must be true because it is being reported here by the non-partisan George Stephanopoulos. (I can’t even type that with a straight face)

 Evidently Obama’s internal investigation missed this story about Rahm Emanuel being caught on tape 21 times talking with Blagojevich. That isn’t surprising because his internal investigation also missed this story about Rahm Emanuel having direct talks with the governor about Obama’s senate seat. 

 President-elect Obama is in spin mode. He assured us that nobody on his staff had ANY conversations with Blago and that was a lie, now he is saying that yes Rahm did talk to Blago but only once and not about his senate seat. All the while Emanuel is on tape talking to Blago about the seat. But much like all of Obama”s other controversial associations that some of us knew about despite the medias attempt to hide it, the media will also hide this.

 Does anyone else out there find it odd that Patrick Fitzgerald stopped Blagojevich before the deal actually went down? Usually when there is a sting operation nobody moves in until the deal is complete, yet this was stopped before it ever happened. Why?

  We are talking about the man who continued the Plame leak investigation for a year after he know who leaked Plame’s name just so that he could get a process crime, yet he stopped this before the actual crime was committed. 

 This was going to go all the way to Obama if it was allowed to proceed so it was stopped. That is the only conclusion I can come to.

 Now Obama is admitting that a member of his staff DID in fact contact Blago but he is spinning it so that it sounds like just a routine conversation took place regardless of the evidence to the contrary. And we will never know the true extent of Obama’s involvement because Fitzgerald conveniently stopped the pay to play scheme before it ever reached it’s conclusion.
