“The Blagojevich Enterprise”
That’s the name of the Rowdy Roddy Blago criminal racket that the feds came up with in their indictment today.
Legal Insurrection has a handy rundown: Blago meets RICO.
I think it’s safe to say Blago and his hair were not happy today.

lol…it’s nice to end the day with a smile, and hope for justice.
Thank you!
I hope they can turn him and make him sing. This will make the lights burn all night at the White House even with the boss gone.
Keep telling me the duh1 crew wasn’t part of the corruption scene in Chicagoland.
I’ll believe you.
Yes. In the end, justice will prevail. As hate-worthy as our enemies are, we must pray for their souls to be saved …that they would turn to goodness. We must do everything in our power, God strengthening and guiding us, to oppose their works, but also we must pray for them …that they would be on the side of truth and righteousness when that final gavel falls.
As hard as I am on lgm, I pray this even for him. He is a Jew and thinks Christians hate the Jews. Yet without the Jew, Christians have no hope, for we were “grafted into their tree” and they are our “root” (Romans 11:17) and “salvation is from the Jews” John 4:22. I pray that this truth penetrates his mind and soul to bring him to salvation.
Justice would be served if Daley were included in this, but alas, the decision on the Olympics is set to be handed down..Nothing, including justice, will stand in the way of Chicago getting those games..Look for the games to begin..when you are not looking..It’s the Chicago Way!
P.S. Look for intervention from Obama..remember, the Olympics are the key to this!
Sounds like the name of a new HBO series to replace ‘The Sopranos’.
RICO….Suave!
I certainly hope so. Unfortunately, if he does, and right before he testifies, he will have a fatal “heart attack”, more than likely.
Yep. He was born and raised in a brothel and he’s still a virgin.
I will not be surprised if an unfortunate surprise occurs before the end of the trial.
The Daly machine wanted Blago out before he revealed them for who they are! Too bad they’re not going after the Daly machine with RICO.
Oh, what a tangled web we weave, when we practice, to deceive.
Chicago politics. Obummers woven in there someplace.
I would get my hopes up that this dirtbag would be put away for 30 years….but in the aftermath of Ward Churchill and Tilller the Baby Killer’s cases… I don’t doubt that he will get away with it as well.
It’s either going to go away or he is going to start squealing.
It’s going to be a good show folks!
Blago…one more corrupt Chicago politician for the books.
It certainly won’t go away if he has anything to do with it. The man does love being the center of attention.
There is no way he will be allowed to “squeal”. All the cover-ups to get Obama to the White House were the result of a very careful and well-funded operation. Do you think these people will allow one man to destroy The One?? Not going to happen. Blago will somehow choke on a hairball or something…just wait. No one is going to be allowed to ruin the coup taking place in DC today. And human life is expendable…mark my words, and remember Vince Foster, et al.
I know it’s easy to see Chicago politics as one big liberal machine, but there’s enough in-fighting within the Democratic party here that it’s more like two or three groups.
Consider this, in most other cases where a Democratic official finds himself in trouble, the Democrats circle the wagons and defend on all fronts. Not so in Blago’s case (and perhaps this is the real reason he’s so fired up).
Obama and Emanuel come from an opposing faction to Blagojevich. In fact, I believe Rahm was the one that likely tipped off the Feds. Blago’s got nothing on Obama. If he did, we would have heard about it by now since he’s made just about every television appearance he can.
Heck, Blago’s so isolated from the liberal faction, even lgm won’t defend him by trying to find a Republican he thinks is worse than him.
Good point, Salt. And you are probably right. If Blago had anything on Obama, they would have made sure, one way or another, that he never talked. The dems are very good at “discrediting” someone they want gone. Their trashing machine is very effective. By the time they were done with Blago, he would have gladly faded into the woodwork. Since that didn’t happen, he probably knows nothing.
I’d be willing to bet this goes NOWHERE!!! They shut the investigation down way to early… They were getting to close to O-BOZO and some of his HENCHMEN to continue… As a result this thing will burn up a lot of TV time, and INK, then stop dead… What’s he guilty of, “CONSPIRACY TO COMMIT CONSPIRACY”??? Don’t believe that is against the law…
