Yes, it would be great if law enforcement agencies at all levels investigated each other as well as most government officials. Since we have the best government that money can buy the dirt uncovered would probably fill volumes.

It's time to move on and look forward. It is premature to call for the impeachment of Obama before he even takes office. We should wait until at least February 2009. Meanwhile, I am looking forward to watching Jesse Junior and Rahm Rove, er Emanuel squirm a bit. I'm wondering if Rahm's House Seat was also for sale and if Jesse Junior was to pay a million for Obama's Senate seat, how much would it cost to buy his House seat? I wonder if Blagojevich was offering a deal on the House seats - buy one and get the second for half price. The writer above is absolutely correct. It’s time to move on and look forward.

However, he or she does not have to befriend a person, and limit the interactions to professional boundaries. Obama might have endorsed Blago in the general but in the primary he did endorse his opponent. So, the conclusion is that all the interactions were strictly professional. In a similar analogy, a lots of folks who endorsed Hillary then turned their endorsement to Obama when he won the primary. Even though he was not their first choice, he was the Democratic nominee so they endorsed him. That is politics works. Obama does not need to discuss any interaction once he indicates that he has not have any discussions regarding the vacant seat. Therefore, he was not involved in any wrongdoing - it's time to move on and look forward! Let's focus on all other critical problems at hand!
