Obama's Mega Man
"Aides say Emanuel talked with Blagojevich about Senate seat" by Helene Cooper and Jackie Calmes, New York Times | December 14, 2008
CHICAGO - .... Rahm Emanuel, who has been tapped by Obama to be his White House chief of staff, had conversations beginning just before the Nov. 4 election with Blagojevich's administration about who would replace Obama in the Senate, according to a report Saturday in the Chicago Tribune.
Emanuel, a Chicago congressman who has long been close to both Blagojevich and Obama, gave Blagojevich's chief of staff a list of Democrats acceptable to Obama to fill the Senate seat, according to the Tribune report....
Not even in office and they are lying already!
Obama said Friday he will release in a matter of days the results of an internal investigation into what conversations his aides and advisers may have had with Blagojevich.... Obama's staff has declined to respond to even basic questions, like who is conducting the probe, how long it will take, what issues are being explored and whether they are working with federal investigators. While Obama has promised openness throughout his service, his staff has locked down on inquiries for now.
Already secretive and covering up!! Not a good sign!
The Obama transition team's refusal to talk has contributed to a maelstrom around Emanuel, [who] is not a target of the probe, according to people who have been briefed on the investigation. The two people spoke on a condition of anonymity because the criminal investigation is ongoing. One is a person close to Emanuel, who said he has been told by investigators that he's not a subject of their probe....
Why would he be? He works for Mossad!
*************************
The normally press-friendly Emanuel has shut down reporters who've been trailing his every move trying to confirm if he's the "president-elect adviser" referred to in the criminal complaint against Blagojevich. Emanuel grew testy with a Chicago Sun Times reporter who approached him at his children's recital and an ABC News cameraman who had been staking out the Emanuel home for hours and was allowed to come in and use the bathroom.
Emanuel told the cameraman he's angry at the networks who have put his home address on national television. "I'm getting regular death threats," Emanuel said, according to an ABC report. "You've intruded too much."
If you ask me, the press has never intruded enough with these Zionist snakes! Of course, being a Zionist-controlled entity....
The Sun-Times reported that Emanuel pushed aside the reporter's recorder and said he wouldn't talk. "I'm not going to say a word to you. I'm going to do this with my children," he said.
The spotlight has fallen on Emanuel in part because conversations secretly recorded by federal investigators suggest Blagojevich wanted to raised large charitable donations in exchange for a favor involving the Illinois 5th District congressional seat that Emanuel plans to vacate to work in the White House.
Keep an eye on your back, Blago!!!
