The news story below no longer exists. It has been Obamatized, that means it is something that happened, was reported on, is damaging to barry and he denied that it happened there for it must disappear.
The OMG is working their collective butts off trying to protect their chosen one. From FOX to CNN they are in full denial mode, nothing may damage barry.

CHICAGO, ILL. — Now that Barack Obama will be moving to the White House, his seat in the U.S. Senate representing Illinois will have to be filled. That’s one of Obama’s first priorities today. He’s meeting with Governor Rod Blagojevich this afternoon in Chicago to discuss it. Illinois law states that the governor chooses that replacement. There’s already been speculation about his selection…from Congressman Jesse Jackson, Jr. of Chicago’s south side who co-chaired Obama’s presidential campaign, to recently-retired state senate president Emil Jones, to the governor himself. It’s likely the governor will make his decision quickly so the new senator will get some seniority before newly-elected senators take office in January. Part of the timing depends on when Obama officially vacates his senate seat. KHQA’s Alexis Hunt is speaking with Illinois Senator John Sullivan today about his thoughts on that replacement process, his time working with Obama in the state senate, and if there’s a chance Sullivan might play a role in the Obama administration. Watch KHQA News at 5:00, 6:00 and 10:00 p.m. tonight to hear what he has to say.

“One of my staff members, probably Axelrod again, misspoke in saying a meeting had been set up. The meeting never took place, I never talked to Blago, and besides, he’s not the Blago I knew.”
good one Mary.
“Obatamized” is good, deadenders. It rhymes with “lobotamized.” Hey, now there’s a thought.
Oscrubbers hard at work. They should fear Blago singing their “praises” in the near future.

Basically, they’re saying they were mistaken, and even if they weren’t, they’re going to rewrite history anyway. It’s funny how media thinks it’s okay to just dump online stories when it wouldn’t be to burn a videotape or shred a newspaper.

Hmmm. So now the OMG is willing to fall on the sword to curry his favor, eh? “Yeah, we lost all the paperwork we had to support it (in our shredder), so it must have been made up.”
So right before our eyes the news is being edited to accommodate the president elect’s version of the truth.
Not something you want to see in a democracy.
It was just a dream.

LOL, looks like you can’t purge everything.
Apparently Blago’s official newsletter that went out Nov 12 had pictures of him and Obama entitled “Governor Blagojevich confers with now President‐Elect Barack Obama.” Than there are the photos of Obama and Blago Dec 2 at the governors meeting.
“I had no contact with the governor or his office and so we were not, I was not aware of what was happening.”
yttik can you find me some photos?
Here you go, looks like Hot Air has the photos and the links:

Does anyone have “The Untouchables”? I’d love to get a clip of Sean Connery’s speech about “That’s the Chicago way.”
