Liz Sidoti from the AP continues to shit on Obama and Democrats
This is the featured story on Yahoo from non other than Liz Sidoti. :puke:

Analysis: Scandal threatens to dog Obama

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20081210/ap_on_go_pr_wh/illinois_governor_analysis

This is not the first time Liz Sidoti has done an "Analysis" piece on Obama:

Analysis: Obama Chose Winning Over His Word

http://www.time.com/time/politics/article/0,8599,1816604,00.html

Well you must be wondering who Liz Sidoti is? She is no other than the AP journalist who gave McCain Dunkin donuts.

2. She's an idiot. "Obama isn't accused of anything. But ..."
Edited on Wed Dec-10-08 09:40 AM by ProSense
Obama isn't accused of anything. But the fact that Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich, a fellow Democrat, has been charged with trying to sell Obama's now-vacant Senate post gives political opponents an opening to try to link him to the scandal. A slew of questions remain. The investigation is still under way. And the ultimate impact on Obama is far from certain.


But my ass!

6. 'Liz Sidoti isn't accused of anything, but some say she likes to have sex with hippos.'

4. Obama seen untouched by Illinois governor charges

Obama seen untouched by Illinois governor charges

By Deborah Charles

CHICAGO (Reuters) – President-elect Barack Obama's decision to keep a distance from his state's governor, who was arrested on corruption charges on Tuesday, should enable him to escape becoming tainted by the scandal, analysts said.

Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich stands accused of trying to sell the president-elect's vacant U.S. Senate seat for financial and other personal benefits for himself and his wife, among other charges.

"Obama is not related to the corruption pattern in Chicago," said political scientist Dick Simpson of the University of Illinois in Chicago. "He has not been pressing for any person to replace him in his Senate seat."

U.S. Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald, announcing the charges, also said Obama was in no way implicated.

7. So in other words, Obama refushes to say bullshit and the AP attacks him because of it
But Obama wouldn't answer a question on whether he was aware of any conversations between the governor and his top aides, including incoming White House chief of staff Rahm Emanuel. "It's an ongoing investigation," Obama said. "I think it would be inappropriate for me to ... remark on the situation beyond the facts that I know."


What more is Obama supposed to say other than, "I don't know?" Did they want him to make something up so they could catch him in a lie?

I guess the press wants to drum up another guilt by association game. The story is juicy enough as it is, without their speculation and innuendo about the president-elect.
