Candidate for RNC Chair Calls for PEBO to Release Blago Records

PEBO is gathering information about what occurred, and he'll be getting back to us. TRANSLATION: We are getting our story straight and deciding who to throw under the bus next. Oh, I can hardly wait to find out what Rezko and Blago will be singing about Obama. You people who think that he could thrive in Illinois politics the way he did without dipping his toes in the water are just plain stupid. After my deep depression after Hillary was robbed of the nomination by Obama's illegal donation machine, voter fraud, etc., I can finally smile again....waiting for a lazy press (Jake excepted) to finally vet Obama. Oh, and ask him if he is a citizen while you are at it.

"Did the Democrats get Involed with senator Stevens BS NO, Did the democrats get Involed with Sara Palins BS, NO Stay out of it pathetic gop."

Wow! What a short memory! Several Senate Democrats DID call for Sen. Stevens to resign. And the state Democrats along with a few upset Republicans tried to tarnish Gov. Palin over Troopergate. Their report acknowledged that she had legitimate reasons to fire her Public Safety Commissioner. But then it subjectively added that Gov. Palin gave too much weight to the fact that he did not fire the trooper in question. It's interesting that they apparently knew exactly how much it influenced her decision when she didn't even speak to their investigators.

bill-tb, fred, Ron Hesselbacher, R. Daniels, jimbo, Ryan C, Bamaluvernot, obusha 09, Good Lt, RM, radical right-wing racists like you are one of the big reasons the Republican party is going down in flames. All but a tiny handful of Americans are sick to death of the divisive hate and fear mongering you people project.

Keep it up, you'll just be shooting yerself in the....foot. ;)

What I find fascinating is the media thinks Bush is dumb and can't talk.

My guess is a grand jury will sort out who is lying. There are enough flippers in the mix to straighten it all out.

Of course Barry Blago-Rezko-Obama wasn't involved, and we will be on Venus next week.

Maybe it was conveyed without a direct conversation. For me in business and general dealings with people I would have an opinion that I was 99% sure of know before I ever asked. And given that Obama is the president elect, I would myself be 99% sure not to even ask Obama for this kind of deal, and sure to make a statement like that made by Blago. This is a weak reach at best.

"...we did not, uh, I did not..." Are you kidding me? That's the best the smartest guy to ever run for higher office can come up with? Seems like ALL of the Clintons are returning to 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.

Wow, you mean G.W.Bush is not being blamed for this? I guess obama is getting a taste of his owm medicine. How doe it feel obama?

Give it up - just another corrupt IL governor. Last one was a Repub. - this one will be sitting next to him in the slammer. YAWN....

Ryan C you got that right about the repubs and hypocrisy.I am an independent and even I can see that Just like Palin and her rants about Ayers when her husband was for several years a member of an american hate Party

The obots know PEBO is from Chicago corrupt politics but they don't care.
Obama said he had no contact with Blago.
Axelrod said he did. one of them has to be lying.

obusha:
The original news headline reads "Grand Jury subpoenas issued for Rezko records"

"Obama" not included.

I think that Drudge was the first one to alter the original headline. Figures.

RNC is about to elect another idiot again after that dumb.

R daniels, I'm sad that Obama has an off-again on-again ciggie habit, but something that trivial would never affect MY vote. just sayin'...

I read the snarky, nasty anti-Obama comments and I smile. Why? because these right wing radicals are dragging what's left of the Republican party deeper into the gutter with every word they type. The anti-Obama coalitions that are feverishly trying to defame and disqualify our President-elect are actually doing more damage to their party than they are to Obama. That's fine with me, I like seeing the Republican party go down in flames.

But what if the RNC gets smart, and, [after watching the Dems win by a landslide this year]realizes that the rapidly dwindling radical right wing faction can no longer win them elections. The RNC will, of course, drop the rad righties like a hot potato and look elsewhere for votes. Support for hate talk radio and TV programs will disappear. Race hate crimes and threats will be soundly punished. Religious issues will be steered to a more centrist position. Republican politicians will no longer pander to the extreme views of the extreme right, but will ignore them instead. "Um, do I know you?" Poor little fellers. Nobody loves you any more.

"It is quite tranparen(sic) that he received financial aid as a college student and his records will SHOW THAT". And what? Millions of us received student loans because we came from families who were too poor to finance a college education for us. I worked my way through college and law school and paid back my student loans. Whatever Tom in Alabama is implying with his crack, it's out of order. In fact, if Obama did receive student loans, good. That puts him in an excellant position to understand what poor students face.

Why are the media jumping on this issue of transparancy now when they didn't require it during the election? I just read today that PEBO hasn't even quit smoking. All of this should have been vetted during the primary season, that's what it's for (and it went on for two years)! That would have been plenty of time to discuss this and determine how important it is in deciding for whom to vote.

Obama is as transparent as a lead box. Even Superman can't see what's inside.

Don't relieve anything said by Katon Dawson, South Carolina Republican Party Chairman, for he is a partisian hack trying to score points bashing Obama. The Republican sleaze machine began with South Carolinian Lee Atwater (RIP) a former RNC chairman and architect of the Willie Horton racist ad run by the first president Bush. Filthy politics runs deep in SC, just ask John McCain.

Obama talking about the need for transparency ??? What A JOKE when he has his medical and school records sealed !!! It is quite tranparen that he received financial aid as a college student and his records will SHOW THAT.
