Progressive Alaska Obtains One of the Blagojevich - Emanuel Tapes

Progressive Alaska has managed to get our second big-time scoop in just over one week. Another secret source has obtained the tape of one of the phone conversations between President-elect Barack Obama's soon-to-be ex-Chief-of-Staff, ex-Illinois U.S. Representative Rahm Emanuel, and soon-to-be outgoing Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich.

Here's our first installment:

All curse words have been redacted:

RE: What the ___'s up, you ___ing slimy ____ ?

RB: ____. ____. You ____ing wanna ____ing pay? 'Cause, otherwise, you ____ing ____ing ____ing not gonna ____ing play, you ____, ____, ____, mother____ing ____.

RE: ____!!! Who the _____ do you ____ing think you ____ing are, you sleazy, _____ing good-for-_____ing, ______ing piece of ____?

RB: I'm a ____ing, piece of _____? You ____, _____ing, _____ing, _____ing sack of _____! I'll ____ing tell you, you ____ing, ______ing, _____ - ____ing......

Anyway, it goes on like this for about 90 minutes. They never do get to the deal, unless it was somehow coded into their delightfully courteous banter.

If those words weren't blanked out I think we could figure out the code.

it's all code for putting Blago's sister in law, Deb, in Rahm's old House seat.

And you thought we were going to get change in DC? More of the same old gutter politics from lying scumbags.
Lay with dogs, get fleas.
I can hardly wait for Blag to try and save his a** by spilling the beans on Obama's house deal, since his wife was the Real Estate Agent.
