For some reason... with the rumors about Rahm and his stating that he's been getting death threats... I think there may reasons that the facts are not all out on the table that may be in the best interest of the persons involved. I don't think 'our right to know'/need to know everything is really primary to the prosecution of the case or the safety of all people involved.

Please, before you write another blog about this, just stop yourself. Really. Just shut up. Please.

I really hate when people/politicians use "voters want to know" or "voters deserve to know" to put politicians on the spot. Knowing full well that this has nothing to do with the voter's needs, but the need to create controversy in order to take down your competition. Most of the time, most voters don't give a shit. What voter, other than Obama's opponents/MSM/trolls, woke up this morning and placed the Blago scandal on their to-worry-about list? Not me! I have a project to turn in, resumes to send out, grocery shopping, exercise, phone calls to make - and I'm single with no kids. I can't imagine what other "voters" have to worry about.

I apologize for the timing mistake - guess it just seems like 10 days already.

As far as being given a gag order there's no law about SAYING so. Of if lawyers need to be called in, then SAY so. Otherwise, if there is nothing to hide as we're told by Fitzgerald and Obama -- then why did he offer to give up all the facts within a few days?

Well, in any case, copying, pasting and editing what I said on another thread, how would you go about gathering those facts and how long to you think it would take to execute your plan?

No idea? yeah, That's clear.

Well here's what I'd do:

a) get the phone logs of the transition team's landlines and the call records from every member's PDA and/or cell phone and comb them for contacts with Blago or with anyone known to have been named in the indictment between the end of November and last week;

b) review all the mail server and PDA mail records for contacts with domains associated with Blago or anyone else identified in the indictment during that period;

c) and, oh yeah, look for old-fashioned paper records;

d) review all the above and try to digest it into some kind of a who did what when timeline; then, and only then,

e) personally interview each of those people about their contacts, possibly with a transcriptionist present; and finally,

f) draft a report summarizing what's been found and collating all the relevant documents into appendices.

And that's just off the top of my noggin. You think that can be done in a week or ten days? Going flat out with three or four lawyers and a couple of paralegals working full time, a good law firm could get it done in three weeks, maybe.

Assuming, that is, that its just another business I'm investigating that's willing to give my investigation top priority instead, of, say, the President-Elect of the United States preparing to take office in the middle of two wars and on the brink of the worst economic disaster since the Great Depression.

And you've got to be exhaustively thorough. If they half-ass it, they will miss something that will come back to bite them in the ass later. Either they'll confidently make some statement that they have to walk back later when someone leaks the undiscovered facts to the MSM or there will be some minor omission that, because it was omitted, is turned into the smoking gun that proves there's some kind of cover-up going on.
