It's pretty obvious the MSM and the Repubs are after Rahm Emanuel.
They smell blood. And it is difficult to distinguish the media from the GOP at times like this. They call plays from the same playbook. What better gift than to have Emanuel out of the House and out of the Administration also?

They, the media and the GOP, really can't help themselves. Just like when they sensed they had a chance to destroy the UAW union. They sense the same thing about Rahm Emanuel. There got to be something behind Obama's campaign and the office of the Governor of Illinois. We have to assume they are guilty until they are found innocent, right?

4. This is the time we should just change the channel and let the rating drop.
If they see the people don't want to listen to made up BS scandles, then maybe they will report more and stop creating controversy for ratings. They should call them Opinion shows because they are 5 minutes news and 55 minutes opinion now.

5. Rahm's appointment was a sop to the "Center/Right". Sorry that it backfired.

6. Has anybody (i.e. Fitzgerald) come out with any hint of impropriety related to RE?
Has anybody accused him of anything other than maybe taking a list of candidates to Blago and telling him that Obama would "appreciate" his consideration of them as potential replacements for his Senate seat?

:shrug:

The MSM seem to be most ticked off about RE getting ticked off at them about their attempts to question RE about the situation WHILE HE WAS AT A PROGRAM FOR HIS KIDS (for crissakes!).
