Politicians are big boys and Obama and his minions are going to learn the hard way that he is going to be the number one target from now on. You can only blame Bush for so much and so long.

It's not the blaming Bush..It's the holding Bush to the same standards that "you" now put on Obama. Because of 9/11, Bush got a free pass to, in my mind, do a lot worse things that Blago did, and certainly worse that anyone has tried to connect Obama to. Where's the outrage...where are Dellinger's daily links, where is the rush to justice that all of a sudden you guys all feel is your civic duty?

Bush is old news and yes Obama is going to be held to that standard as is every president or Senate leader in the future. I began to reply in this post to Riot's partisan blaming of th RNC for this story being covered. Like the media wouldnt run with this especially in a slow news period where the financial stories and auto industry peices have grown monotonous. If Bush's chief of staff had 21 taped conversations with a Governor who was accused of selling a Senate seat among other things you dont think that would be a huge story? Hell the guy throwing shoes at Bush has been covered more extensively outside of Chicago than the Blago story. I have no outrage over the situation though i would love to know what Emmanuel and Obama knew about this guy.

Obama is going to be held to that standard as is every president or Senate leader in the future.

Bush got a free pass on atrocities worse than anything Blago did

Bush got a free pass? From who? the NY post? Bush has been blamed for everything from global warming to gas prices rising which of course he had virtually nothing to do with either. Bush has been the single most villafied non criminal in the history of the world and he got a free pass? Come on you dont really believe this do you?
