Friday Audio Dump: Blagojevich Cursing Obama Over Senate Seat By Doug Powers • July 2, 2010 01:51 PM Like 1

**Written by guest-blogger Doug Powers

Prosecutors at the trial of Rod Blagojevich released a recording of the former Illinois governor sounding unhappy, to say the least, with , but even more unhappy with his job at the time.

It’s said that the prosecution released the audio to attempt to prove the level of Blagojevich’s financial desperation, but the recording also implies that Blago had been contacted by someone from Team Obama and getting his arm twisted a bit about who to appoint to Obama’s vacated Senate. Blagojevich is nuts though, so it’s hard to tell either way:

Her only qualification would be should would vote exactly the way The One would tell her to vote on any issue.

She had never even served on a school board. All of them are testaments to the fact they had no desire to solve any problems in our country. They have no problem solving skills or experience. All they wanted was to seize the power of those positions to implement a Marxist ideology.

This is nothing more than a coup de tat made possible by large infusions of cash from Soros, unions, illegal sources along with the willing support of the MSM.

I knew it was bad, but not that bad.

Blago called Obama a “mother-BLEEP-er”.

Wow.

More likely sharing a bunk with Jimmy Hoffa. Never to be heard from again.

It is concessions such as yours and apathy that makes it more difficult. Do something about it.

Yeah, it was like that when Jimmeh was elected. Absolutely clueless. Then people wised up and we had Reagan for eight years. Hope and change is coming. I mean the real thing.

On July 2nd, 2010 at 10:59 pm, WarEagle82 said: #26 Reagan was great for 8 years. He managed to slow the growth of government for those 8 years. And then we got Bush and then Clinton and then Bush again and the government grew and lurched to the left. And now Obama has lurched even further left into open Marxism and literal insanity.

What is is going to take to stop this? I don’t see it out there on the horizon and we are running out of time…

I lived there for 12 years and voted in every election, including for Glenn Poshard (D) against George Ryan (R). Then the debacle of Obama vs. Keyes came, and it was so freaking frustrating. Ugh.

Not at all surprised to find out Blago was a completely insane freak.
