by Jim Newell

4:20 pm December 10, 2008

He denies being corrupt, ever, “PERIOD.” UPDATE: Oh the live stream is over now, losers. Politico probably has a recap… Ah, yes, they do. [MSNBC]

He’s so clean.

4tehlulz December 10, 2008 at 4:25 pm

And you can tape me 24/7 if you want! I have nothing to….oh shi-

Serolf Divad December 10, 2008 at 4:26 pm

His guilt is both an impossibility and a certainty.

dannygutters December 10, 2008 at 4:29 pm

perhaps it was all a frame up to keep jackson out of the senate!

Sussemilch December 10, 2008 at 4:29 pm

Was that Obama? All those Illinois Congresspeople look the same.

BillyClubb December 10, 2008 at 4:30 pm

Hey Jesse Jr., your little sister is proud of you? Great, my little sister is proud of me. Now we got something in common.

Hey, by the way, I’m not really qualified to hold elective office. Oh yeah, again, we got something in common.

Besides the creepy “Flowerz in teh Attic” moment with sis, I kind of feel sorry for him. But I’ve dealt with his Daddy personally, regarding money, so I am not so sure he’s spotless.

I missed the live stream. Was he interviewed in Chicago, DC, or Hymietown?

ironyisoverrated December 10, 2008 at 4:39 pm

All I want for Christmas is for this scandal to link to Todd Stroger, Cook County’s second most famous “President”. The Toddler is clearly achingly incompetent, I just don’t know if he’s as blatently corrupt as Hot Rod.

Violenza December 10, 2008 at 4:43 pm

Alright, I am only going by visuals here, but am I the only one with a ladyboner? Between JJJr’s sexy ass holding that twisted spinal column/dildo trophy and that link someone posted to Yusef Jackson, ooooooohh. Now post me a link to Blago’s merkin pixxx and I will be ALL SET!

shortsshortsshorts December 10, 2008 at 4:49 pm

Every politician in Illinois, without exception, is linked to this tragic awesomeness.

Toomush Infermashun December 10, 2008 at 5:01 pm

As goeth Chicagoe, so goeth the Nation…! Wake up, people – you’re missing economic stimulus of the highest order…forget naming stadiums….selling senate slots could restore our fiscal balance in and of itself….and this is just like legalizing marijuana….you don’t have to change a thing!

hedgehog December 10, 2008 at 5:10 pm

Jesse’s not guilty – the check didn’t even clear!

Aurelio December 10, 2008 at 5:18 pm

I would love to see the Jackson dynasty brought down. Along with the Clinton dynasty and the Bush dynasty and the House of Windsor. Also various Hollywood dynasties such as the (Kirk) Douglas one and the Sheen one. Dynasties are un-fucking-American.

Aurelio December 10, 2008 at 5:23 pm

Well, OK, the Clintons aren’t a dynasty. Yet.

gurukalehuru December 10, 2008 at 5:29 pm

[re=196104]Aurelio[/re]: I see your point and I would even throw in the Kennedys. However,without Hollywood dynasties, we would be deprived the pleasure of Drew Barrymore, who is one of the totally awesomest girl people of all time.

TGY December 10, 2008 at 5:34 pm

[re=196104]Aurelio[/re]: But what of Joan Collins on Dynasty??!

SwanSwanH December 10, 2008 at 6:33 pm

Can’t someone just appoint Bobby Rush and be done with it?

arf December 10, 2008 at 6:36 pm

[re=196104]Aurelio[/re]: I vote we bring down the Baldwin dynasty. Ick.

It’s not nice that the Revvvraannd Jesse Jackson, or J. Jackson Sr., threatened and or spoke the desire to “cut his (Barack Obama) nuts off”. I, for instance, have no desire to do that to anyone, again. But Jesse and Jr., from the same gene pool and all, may have a different slant on how they vent frustration, or even worse, envy. A deadly sin you know. Political movement for some is taking a shit. I take a George Bush at least four times a day, and you know what, I’m facing east whilst on my crapper. But political movement for some others is pack sport. I see the pack in Chitown stepping out of line and over the pack in Washington. The king of Illinois was impaled by the king’s bishop of Washington, but not before destroying two Chitown rooks. Poor effort Jesse and Jr., read up on false flags. See ya.

The Blaggy/JJJ/BHO clusterfuck was totally in the hoooooouse tonight on Faux’s “Special Report” with Brit “I couldn’t find a journalist with both hands and a map” Hume. Times were tough at Faux, but they still got Charlie Krauthammer or whatever on, with Maura Liason and someone else, also. Charlie is one shifty looking sumbitch, eh? Looks everyone but at the camera. Meanwhile, Brit had a hardon for this story so big that he looked like a fucking tripod when he left the set. Happy days are here again, says Faux. At least, until everyone but Faux is satisfied that BHO didn’t have anything much to do with Blaggy. At which time, Faux can return to finding out who killed Vince Foster.

I don’t normally watch Faux, but it was on at les Arches de Or this evening, and I was jonesin’ for affordable food (before I have to tuck into the cat food).

WoundedVeteran December 10, 2008 at 8:10 pm

I came back to elaborate. For as long as I can remember, the closing statement, representing “no”, by any member of the senate or congress, or any other politico, or wanna be, or member of the ACLU, or NACP, has been suck my ass. Of course, some do, and a deal is made, based on sucking the recipient’s ass, or dick, or taco. My point, look at the dog that cries the loudest from the safest end of the pen. That dog is a traitor.

WoundedVeteran December 10, 2008 at 9:06 pm

And for Jesse Jr., who is your mother????

S.Luggo December 10, 2008 at 9:26 pm

Given that Blago has a sub-room temperature IQ and is ethically challenged (and thereby assumes that everyone in his political sphere is the same as him), I can accept JJ Jr.’s statement until proven otherwise.

S.Luggo December 10, 2008 at 9:40 pm

[re=196270]S.Luggo[/re]: Bye the by, indicted Rod’s statement in the federal complaint about how much money Candidate 5 could raise for him is his own gratutious speculation, made by a man who would not blink to shake down Mother Teresa.

VTBen December 10, 2008 at 9:45 pm

Rafael Palmeiro also never used steroids. PERIOD.

rocktonsammy December 10, 2008 at 9:59 pm

Please God let Chicago get the 2016 Olympics.

PLEASE…

DangerousLiberal December 10, 2008 at 10:11 pm

Uh, Jim, you can’t use that typeface (Georgia?) in bold ital with the word Live, because I thought you were saying he was speaking jive, and something about the Jackson Five, also.

Of course, if I wasn’t scrolling and reading and drinking simultaneously…..

rocktonsammy December 10, 2008 at 10:24 pm

I’m sure Blago is being blamed for Ron Santo not getting elected to the Hall Of Fame, again.

Damn the bad timing of it all.

gliberal December 10, 2008 at 10:38 pm

The only difference between Jesse and Reverend Al is some Dixie Peach Hair Pomade. They extort money from companies in exchange for racial peace. That’s the pot of gold at the end of the Rainbow Coalition. At least that’s the view here from Hymietown.

Unindicted Co-Conspirator December 11, 2008 at 12:49 am

[re=196024]ironyisoverrated[/re]: Toddler is way too stupid to be corrupt. He’s just a tool of Bill Beavers who is both smart & totally corrupt.
Let’s hope the Great & Powerful Fitz has him in his sights, along with Shortshanks Daley & his crooked crew.

Theodorick Of York December 11, 2008 at 9:52 am

I deny the allegations and I deny the alligator.

God Hates Frogs December 11, 2008 at 10:28 am

I’m thinking Patrick Ness Fitzgerald for Hopey’s old gig. Unleash the power of the Federal Ass-Whipping on teh Wall Street and teh Big Three. Name him the Ayatollah of Capitalism. Let him pick over Karl Rove’s rotting bone.
