Of course, Rahm Emanuel secretly negotiated with Blagojevich
December 17, 2008 – 6:39 pm by JohnThe fact that Rahm Emanuel is a belligerent warmonger hasn’t noticeably stirred up very much unrest among Obama maniacs. Neither has his…shall we say, vicious and vindictive personality. In fact, a lot of people lauded Obama’s choice for his chief of staff precisely because of Emanuel’s uncompromising and dictatorial attitude towards politics.
Therefore, I expect that when it becomes as obvious to everyone else as it is to me and others who aren’t blinded by their faith in the Savior of America that Rahm Emanuel illegally negotiated with Rod Blagojevich to illegally fill the Savior’s vacated Illinois senate seat, the Obama maniacs will find several lame excuses to continue supporting both Emanuel and Obama and ignore this black mark on their regime, which hasn’t even started yet. I also predict Emanuel will face no formal consequences for it, such as being fired. Maybe the accusations that Obama’s presidential campaign co-chairman, Jesse Jackson, Jr., offered to pay $1 million for the senate seat will be dismissed as racist hate-speech.
Maybe some Obama maniacs will recognize these pay-for-play dealings as nothing more than “politics as usual,” which might lead them to become more cynical and skeptical about the State, but I will be surprised if a single liberal goes so far as to say, “These secret negotiations to give Obama’s senate seat to the highest bidder were wrong…it’s very similar to everything else that politicians do…therefore I think it’s all wrong!” Rod Blagojevich’s senate-seat negotiations are identical in principle to everything else every government does.
Given Rahm Emanuel’s unpleasant personality and uncompromising approach to politics, I would imagine his efforts to bribe Blagojevich were quite vicious, very arrogant and demanding, and probably more than a little bit profane. (That seems to be one of the main objections to Blago’s taped conversations, not so much their content.) Emanuel is a dirty, wretched creep, a parasite who lives off of the productive people of the country and belongs in federal prison, not the federal government.
