6. Click the link
It's from SNL.

Speculation is, Rahm Emmanuel may have been helping Fitzgerald.

10. It was good timing on Rahm's part.
I don't think he saw it coming, today, at least. Rahm not only took him out, he humiliated him right when he was in full media spotlight on the window worker's pay issue. What a way to go down.

11. Yeah, ha ha. Rahm is very amusing until he is going after YOU.
Don't assume his enemies will always be YOUR enemies.

12. Or that who he decides to go after is as corrupt as Blagojevich
When I seen Rahm turn over an Obama ally who is corrupt - then I'll believe his motives in this case where high minded.

13. It was politically expedient which ALSO turned out to be high minded.
Rahm Emanuel is not an anti-corruption Democrat. Or put it this way, he hasn't been in the past. But if he decides to become one and root out all the corruption perpetuated in the last 8 years, then I will recant my first impression of him.

14. I made no statement about motivations
Blago was crossing Rahm.

He was fucking ended. He didn't even see it coming. One day he was there and the next he fucking disappeared.

16. It's being reported locally here in Chicago that Rahm tipped the scale
Blagojevich apprently reached out to Emmanuel over the Senate appointment and that's what made the complaint move so fast:
