Tuesday December 9, 2008

From the indictment of Democratic Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich filed today. Various individuals' names were obscured in the filing, as is standard legal practice.

Rod Blagojevich said that the consultants (Advisor B and another consultant are believed to be on the call at that time) are telling him that he has to "suck it up" for two years and do nothing and give this "motherf***er (the President-elect) his senator. F*** him. For nothing? F*** him." Rod Blagojevich states that he will put "(Senate Candidate 4)" in the Senate "before I just give F***ing (Senate Candidate 1) a F***ing Senate seat and I don't get anything." (Senate Candidate 4 is a Deputy Governor of the State of Illinois). Rod Blagojevich stated that he needs to find a way to take the "financial stress" off of his family and that his wife is as qualified or more qualified than another specifically named individual to sit on corporate boards. According to Rod Blagojevich, "the immediate challenge is how do we take some of the financial pressure off of our family." Later in the phone call, Rod Blagojevich stated that absent getting something back, Rod Blagojevich will not pick Senate Candidate 1.

Harris re-stated Rod Blagojevich's thoughts that they should ask the President-elect for something for Rod Blagojevich's financial security as well as maintain his political viability. Harris said they could work out a three-way deal with SEIU and the President- elect where SEIU could help the President-elect with Rod Blagojevich's appointment of Senate Candidate 1 to the vacant Senate seat, Rod Blagojevich would obtain a position as the National Director of the Change to Win campaign, and SEIU would get something favorable from the President-elect in the future.

1. This dude sounds imbalanced.....

:crazy:

[Radical Activist]

7. Many people think so. Seriously.

There are state senators and representatives who publicly say the Governor is insane and they mean it literally.

[Deja Q]

2. Awww, poor Rod Jackoffjevich

:nopity:

[aquart]

3. I wouldn't get excited.

I expect he calls everybody that.

[Olney Blue]

4. This guy is seriously corrupt.

[HEyHEY]

5. You're mistaken, he meant it in a gentry kind of way!

[FARAFIELD]

6. iT WAS THE ADVISOR THAT SAID THAT NOT BLAGO

The advisor was telling blago what he had to do, obviously the advisor is in do-do as well, but then again one would expect blago to be dealing with people that thought like himself.

[Radical Activist]

8. No. It was Blago.

Its oddly worded but first it has Blago describing what his advisers told him and then what he thought about it.

It states:

"Rod Blagojevich said...

[tamboureens]

10. Blago said that his consultants are telling him...

Note that Blago is saying that his consulatants are telling him something. Remove the parentheses and you will see:

Rod Blagojevich said that the consultants (Advisor B and another consultant are believed to be on the call at that time) are telling him that he has to "suck it up" for two years and do nothing and give this "motherf***er his senator. F*** him. For nothing? F*** him."

[Radical Activist]

11. No. The entire sentence is describing what blago said.

It just starts with Blago paraphrasing his consultants and then quotes Blago directly. Other documents make this more clear.


Rod Blagojevich said..."motherf***er his senator. F*** him. For nothing? F*** him."

9. this is good news (I think). Would he say that about someone he

a) considered a friend or b) a viable associate who showed any interest whatsoever - EVER - to make deals with him that were anything remotely inappropriate?

I dunno. But if he had glowing words for Obama, it would concern me more... : )

[bigtree]

12. that's what I see here

distance

[ThatOne213]

13. Imagine all the things we do not hear about!

Maybe this is how it really works. He just got caught.

[Occam Bandage]

14. I guarantee you that most Governors do not extort cash from children's hospitals.

Sure, nobody's perfect, but G-Rod is the bastard son of Boss Tweed.

[TexasObserver]

15. People talk shit when they think they're in private with friends.

Frankly, I'm a lot more concerned about having police and FBI who can justify weeks of secret taping, than I am governors who sell positions to supporters (which is SOP, by the way).

[cali]

16. uh, they had a warrant. And no, it's not SOP

and you provide no evidence whatsofuckingever that it is. Furthermore, it's not SOP to blackmail the board chair of a Childrens' hospital as is also alleged.

Pathetic to see DUers acting this way.

[TexasObserver]

18. uh, that's your opinion

[cali]

19. I'll post wherever I feel like. and no, dear, it's not my opinion

that they had a warrant.

And believe me, I feel nothing but the utmost contempt for your loony posts.

[Hippo_Tron]

17. Hey Rod, that's President-Elect Motherfucker to you...

[Hekate]

20. Many thanks to Blago for making it clear that Our Guy has nothing to do with Blago's corruption

Need I say more?

Hekate

[Joe the Liberal]

21. Excuse the language but.......

F*ck Blago, that corrupt sonofabitch can go f*ck himself.

[fujiyama]

22. The craziest thing is

he thought he could run for president in 8 years!

ROFL. What a deluded fool.

Lock him up and throw away the keys. This guy is just baaaaad news. Man, Illinois just has the worst luck with governors - two arrested governors in a row! Wow.
