"Tim" wrote in message ... Another radio editorial: MANAGER'S MEMO * 12/16/08 Blagogate enters its second week with plenty to ponder. *Like last week…let me hit some key points to consider as this stain widens. -The silence of former Illinois Congressman and the proposed chief of staff to the president-elect, Rahm Emanuel, certainly is deafening. Emanuel once bragged that he and Obama had masterminded Rob Blagojevich's 2002 gubernatorial campaign. Now he is dodging reporters and offering zero comment. It is logical that Emanuel had conversations with Hot Rod…..nothing wrong there. The silence is probably because Emanuel is all over the wire taps. Anything he says now --can't dispute what appears on the tapes….which are sure to be released eventually. -On another front I continue to see the national media go completely into the tank for the incoming president. Remember when the GOP named Sarah Palin as VP? Remember the dozens of reporters and investigators that rushed to tiny Wasilla, Alaska to find dirt? Good grief, they were relentless. But look where Obama cut his teeth? Chicago, Illinois--- Where graft is a birthright. And yet, there was woefully little reporting on Obama's rise through the southside of the windy city. -Who is the sitting Governor meeting these days? One day he is meeting with a group of ministers and the next he is meeting with rapper R. Kelly's attorney. What an interesting lesson in diversity….One day breaking bread with the monsignor and asking for forgiveness…and the next asking a criminal lawyer how to cut the best deal to save his own skin…..What an interesting life. And finally, I received an e-mail from an Illinois native last week….and this is what it said on the bottom of the message-----“quote” ----- “Being a native Illinoisan means being a “can-do” person. Heck, even our Governors roll up their sleeves and make license plates.” Maybe Blago is trying to make it a state crime instead of a Federal crime and then he can pardon himself. Well, locals have already discussed what he can do with himself..... |
