"I think all that's left is to sign the verdict form," he said. "I think it's over." Attorney Michael Ettinger
Yep, Fitzy pulled the trigger on Blago way too quickly -changed the indictment - gave Blago all the wiggle room on the planet. Almost no testimony from the White House other than hearsay -Hey, was this not about President Obama's Senate Seat?
This will be a waltz from Justice like no other in American history. The smelt gets away from the whale hunter's harpoon - shocking.

Since day one, I've said if Blago goes down, he's not going down alone. He'd take Obama, Emanuel and Daley et al. down with him.
ReplyDeleteHe was way too cocky for a guy facing charges that if convicted, could have put him away for the rest of his life, if he didn't have the goods on Chicago's corrupt politicians.
I'm convinced that Blago made it known that he doesn't swim alone and has enough evidence stashed away in a safe place to expose everyone should some freak "accident" happen to him or his family, and Fitzgerald was directed by the powers that be to stand down.
Tony Rezko will walk before this is over too, and Fitzgerald just became more powerful than ever.
My feelings exactly, Jim, I am sad to say.
ReplyDeleteAgreed except I don't know how Fitz shows his face in public if the Jury cames back hung on most of it.
ReplyDeleteFitzy set with the Obama JD. He can write his own ticket having played ball with Nation of Cowards Eric Holder for the Amateur Hour White House.
ReplyDeleteThat's two husky years worth of plucking, Bill.
