Blago's Six Secrets Revealed
Posted by Tom Bevan
April 22nd, 2010

The Ward Room, an NBC News sponsored blog about the inner workings of Chicago politics, reports on six items from Rod Blagojevich's subpoena of Barack Obama that were supposed to be redacted, but weren't due to a glitch in the electronic filing of the document. The six items that redactions were supposed to conceal were:

1. Obama may have lied about conversations with convicted fraudster Tony Rezko
2. Obama may have overtly recommended Valerie Jarret for his Senate seat
3. A supporter of President Obama may have offered quid pro quo on a Jarrett senate appointment
4. Obama maintained a list of good Senate candidates
5. Rahm Emanuel allegedly floated Cheryl Jackson's name for the Senate seat
6. Obama had a secret phone call with Blagojevich

Read the Ward Room post for the details on each item. Needless to say, if what Blagojevich's attorneys are alleging is grounded in fact, this could be a major headache for the President of the United States.
