Governor Blagojevich, Obama Pal, Arrested for Corruption - Selling Obama's Seat

.
According to Fox News, "FBI Special Agent-in-Charge in Chicago Robert Grant said he was asked by reporters when he first started the investigation "whether or not Illinois is the most corrupt state in the United States." He responded, "...I didn't answer that question, yes or no, and I can't answer that question today...But I can tell you one thing: If it isn't the most corrupt state in the United States, its certainly one hell of a competitor," he said. The series of allegations say that Blagojevich and Harris tried to sell President-elect Barack Obama's vacated Senate seat to the highest bidder. Fitzgerald quoted Blagojevich recorded during court-authorized wiretaps as saying, "It's a 'bleeping' valuable thing. You just don't give it away for nothing."

Again, as I have said in previous blogs, one of the reasons, (along with his many shady companions), that I mistrust Obama is that he has been raised and nurtured in one of the most politically corrupt areas of America, and there is evidence to indicate that he didn't make his leaps from one seat to the next based on just his good looks.

How much did Obama "pay" for that Senate seat that Blagojevich thought was valuable enough to "sell" again? Who did he make deals with? Apparently, that's how it's done in Illinois.

What I can't understand is that despite the many evidences of corrupt associations in Obama's life, a large number of people want to continue to believe it's all just coincidence and that poor Obama never knew anything about any of the shady deals going on around him. He's just always been some innocent, oblivious and pure by-stander.

What a load of crud.
