The OFFICIAL "Throw Rahm Under the Bus" Betting Pool - Page 2

You guys are expecting too much too quick. We are only at the "I never knew Reverend Wright said such things even though I went to his church for twenty years" phase of this matter.

Give it some time. Plus Fitzgerald has to make sure he still has a job after inauguration. He is going to say whatever is necessary to stay on the job at this point.

There are connections there we don't care to look into. Clearly Senators and Presidents aren't in it for the salary either but they sure seem to clean up somehow as well.

How much is being able to take down a president worth? What sort of favors could that get someone?


Hassan, stop lying. You know I forced you to write that word. I control all. I am the maker of memes, the creator of all things right-wing. You are merely the puppet at the end of the strings.

So is asking questions or seeking evidence. Don't you understand that we have arrest detailsto report on regarding Palin's daughter's boyfriend's mother. We are busy pursuing three degrees of separation with Palin and have no time to directly question the President-Elect on matters like this since we are also too busy talking about his abs.


It won't be the national media that put him there. I suspect it will be like Edwards. Guys like you will see lack of action as lack of proof and later will say, well that was so long ago or who gives a damn anyway.


Or phone records showing contact...


I'm sure Obama will be holding that hand as well. He isn't above etiquette. Obama will be adding the hands of Chavez, Castro, Putin, and Ahmadinejad's as well.


Listen the media could report on that, but Michelle wore a very pretty wraparound with her bathing suit today and after gushing about that, we just didn't have any time or questions to "waste" on this matter.

"So we ended the year with a surge of Democratic malfeasance that easily matched the former Republican Congress. Crusading New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer resigned in disgrace after disclosure of his junkets with a prostitute. "Hot Rod" Blagojevich, governor of Illinois, was caught on a wire discussing how to sell Barack Obama's Senate seat to the highest bidder.

Then there's Rep. Charles Rangel of New York, chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee. The sheer range of his alleged transgressions is shocking: occupying four rent-stabilized apartments in Harlem (while also claiming a tax exemption on a D.C. residence), giving multimillion-dollar tax breaks to an energy company in exchange for donations, failing to report rental income to the IRS, and abusing congressional perks."

Please ignore all of this. It is nothing more than a distraction. It is smoke. George Bush lost and so it is not relevant. Being ethical isn't important because Bush lost.


The saying goes "How's your wife?" and the answer is "Compared to what?"

Get ready to receive the answer of compared to what. Bush won't look so bad then. Right now the answer is compared to a promised utopia. Utopia won't be arriving any time soon.

Just remember how well that Jimmy Carter was doing a year in when that evil Nixon and all Republicans were tossed out. Finally remember that magical name Deval Patrick, the Obama precursor that Obama borrowed heavily from in part, due to the fact that they shared David Axelrod. His approval numbers are already 50% negative.


Just make sure you do it wearing your panama hat.

You guys are so cute.

Here is some new info. Obama received the report and so far has, let's be nice and say has fudged the number of calls made. He clearly had the report and leaked part of it to "This Week" so he could get his talking points out there before the report. Then he sent Rahm off to Africa after holding on to the report for three days and releasing it on Christmas Eve where it was sure to get full attention.

The man knows his media.

Should I start a new thread or just leave this here.

I don't want to get my reports or my investigations mixed up. Since it is only two members of his cabinet so far I should be able to keep them straight.

More like shouldn't something new act different instead of merely having a different skin color?

I like Richardson. I said early on that I would support him for president if I had to vote for a Democrat. That doesn't put him above the law. If the new guys are promising reform, we should have a trail of grand juries, informants and questionable deals following them into office and various positions.
