The Blago saga gets a touch of Sopranos
 
This is a movie being acted out in real life. Does Blago have a white Bronco?

Dellinger, I'm not liking this chicagotribune.com source. It doesn't seem legit enough, too much like the Post and the tabloids.

The other reference you used, on another thread, asssumed that because Rahm wouldn't talk to a reporter in his face while at his child's school for a performance, that he was not denying the question. I don't think I'd answer that question at that place and time, either


But, I do like the drama of this whole story, so feel free to contribute:)

The source, Tribune, is legit..The author, John Kass, replaced Mike Royko and is always stirring the pot about Chicago politics. He has no love for Rahm, or much "Left". You should see him go after Daley...pretty funny.

Fair enough with me GBBob, I'd think good reporters are neither Democrat or Republican

Rahm isn't getting a pleasant intro to the U.S. population. We've all seen the photo they used of him whispering something to Obama when they announced him, which was joked about on Comedy Central by Jon Stewart as "the Jew whispering to the Black man", and now this strange involvement. And us Obama fans have to wonder about Barack picking this guy as his right-hand man

I'm on the other side of the aisle politically, but 100% totally agree with the two of you there. A good reporter should find out and report the truth, regardless (not spin it in one direction or another). Just the facts.

1? 0?
