SiperBowl Posted December 17, 2008 Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 BY MICHAEL SNEED Sun-Times Columnist Sneed hears rumbles President-elect Barack Obama's chief of staff, Rahm Emanuel, is reportedly on 21 different taped conversations by the feds -- dealing with his boss' vacant Senate seat! A lot of chit-chat? Hot air? Or trouble? • • To date: Rahm's been mum. Stay tuned. A Ryan report . . . The big wait: James Alan Wilkowski, the Bishop of the Evangelical Catholic (not Roman Catholic) Diocese of the Northwest, dispatched a letter to President Bush Dec. 5 petitioning him to commute the sentence of former Gov. George Ryan. "[He] has clearly demonstrated his regrets and has unconditionally accepted responsibility for any and all of his actions," the letter stated Gulp! It's called the Blago cocktail . . . or, the "Impeach Effen Blago Cocktail." • • The tip: The $6 drink, which is being sold at Harry Caray's Italian Steakhouse, is named after the gov, who was taped by the feds using the "F" word numerous times. • • The tipler: The eatery is also selling a drink entitled "The Senate Seat." Same recipe -- plus the addition of a green color to symbolize money. It costs $100. • • The kicker: Leave it to Grant "The Bartman Ball" DePorter to give birth to the brew. Bench press . . . Checking up! Sneed hears Chief Circuit Court Judge Tim Evans quietly slipped into Central Bond Court Monday, at 26th and California, to see if one of his new reforms -- turning off the video cams during bond hearings -- was working. It was. • • Translation: Arrestees will now physically appear before a judge for bail hearings instead of appearing via closed circuit television. http://www.suntimes.com/news/sneed/1333057...SNEED16.article Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiperBowl Posted December 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 We should be demanding to be able to hear what was said on those Tapes! I bet Obama and his aids were on them also! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calfoxwc Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 I bet Emmanuel is gone before he gets to his nominated position. Obama will find somewhere else to stick him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calfoxwc Posted December 22, 2008 Report Share Posted December 22, 2008 Wait, I wonder where the lefties went on this subject? Hear no Evil, See no evil, typey no evil ? Change subject frantically to something about Palin? Rahm is in denial, along with the Gov of Illinois. Poor Obama, all dressed up as president, but the party starts soon, and his closest advisor and home state Gov. have turned into rotten pumpkins, and the left is so outraged they haven't controlled him, they can't see straight. Sounds like a horror movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
