Rod Blagojevich’s defense team files a motion to supboena Barack Obama

April 22, 2010

  As everybody knows, Rod Blagojevich has been indicted for attempting to sell Barack Obama’s vacant senate seat. The president was interviewed at one point for two hours by the FBI. Rod Blagojevich’s defense team asked for the FBI records of their interview with Barack Obama. They still have not received the documents, so it is now being reported that Blagojevich’s defense team is going to seek the subpoena of Barack Obama in this case.

  Blagojevich claims that he met with a person that he thought was representing Barack Obama, he told the representative that he would appoint the candidate to the senate that that represented wanted. If this is true, and Blagojevich did meet with a man representing Barack Obama’s interest in this case, and he did agree to appoint a person to the senate that this representative wanted, then Barack Obama was involved in this corrupt process.

  Somebody is lying. Either the man lied about representing Barack Obama, Rod Blagojevich is lying about meeting with a man that was representing Barack Obama, or Barack Obama is lying about his involvement in this matter.

  The man that Blagojevich claims was representing Barack Obama is being used as a prosecuting witness, but because this man’s testimony differs from Barack Obama’s testimony, Rod Blagojevich’s representation feels that it has the right to call Barack Obama to testify. It seems logical to me.

  Nobody can guess how this is going to play out, but one thing is certain– somebody is lying and we deserve to know who it is. This could get very interesting before it is over.

  Barack Obama’s actions may go a long way to let us know how deeply involved he was in this scandal– if at all. If Barack Obama manages to escape this subpoena and does not end up testifying it will seem as though he has something to hide. If he is totally clean he shouldn’t have any problem testifying in this case. If he has nothing to hide he should welcome the opportunity to clear his name.
