Emanuel Administration Already Embroiled In Scandal

**Apocalypse** · 03-09-2011, 10:56 AM

President Obama’s former chief of staff hasn’t even been sworn in as Chicago mayor and already his administration has been tainted by a major scandal involving the illegal use of public resources to conduct political business.

The co-chair of mayor-elect Rahm Emanuel's campaign, also a top member of his transition team, quit abruptly after the local media revealed that she engaged in “prohibited political activity” as a high-level state employee to help none other than Obama get elected in 2008. As the director of Illinois’ Board of Higher Education, Judy Erwin used her state-issued cell phone, electronic mail account and other public resources to work on Obama’s presidential campaign.

Those who are shocked by this raise their hand.

If our media did their job no politician who ever held an office anywhere near Chicago would ever hold office anywhere else.

I do give credit to the guys on 890AM out of Chicago, they did a lot to get everyone in and get stuff out to people about the candidates...however most of them, including Rham would not go on the station for interviews.

Don and Roma had one the idiot Senators from Wisconsin on this morning and they ripped him a new one, went so far as to tell him they'd trade Gov. with them :D LOL
