Riginslinger - "They're getting closer to Jesse Jackson Jr., and starting to look at Obama."

"They?"   Maybe Fitzgerald is "getting closer to Jesse Jackson Jr" but the only "they" who are starting to look at Obama - any more than at anyone else who may have any connection to Illinois politics - seem to be the same Republican crowd that set out to dig up some dirt on Bill Clinton before he even took office.   There's been nothing revealed by news sources that in any way implicated Obama other than wild-assed speculation, mostly by those who have ulterior motives.

Sad to say, at a time when our nation could really use some healing and bipartisan cooperation - after a disastrous 8 years and a solid victory by the Democrats - too many of those who opposed Obama seem more interested in hobbling him right out of the gate than in doing anything to help the country survive the crises we're in.

Fitzgerald has lots of taped conversations and other evidence. Why don't we let his office do its job before we go off on witch hunts?
