SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) -- Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr., D-Ill., served as an informant in past federal investigations of Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich, but wasn't an informant in connection with the current charges brought against the governor, CNN reported late Tuesday, citing two unnamed people close to the congressman. Jackson has served as an informant for "more than a decade" and has related information about Blagojevich since 2006, according to the report. Jackson has said federal prosecutors told him he is not a target of their investigation.

This isn't the goddam mafia. We don't expect our elected officials to keep their mouths shut in the face of ethical and criminal impropriety.
Our political world has become so warped by extremists that a guy who does the right thing cannot win for doing the right thing.
The obvious extension of your comment is that old-style under-the-table shady politics should go on unimpeded.

If JJ Jr. informed on Blago, it's a good thing.
Like Decker said, "this isn't the goddam mafia."
With the snitch logic Anne Frank would be considered a snitch.

Jesse Jr. was probably caught doing something and told either snitch or go to jail. That is how things really go down on the street, especially Chicago.
For anyone to believe Obama & Jesse Jr. are the only virgins in the whorehouse of Chicago politics is just deluding themselves.

The mafia is far more honest than the government.

Maybe, maybe not. The bottom line is that he did the right thing and you seem to have a problem with that.

No, I know how things happen in reality and in the real world. People like JJ Jr. dont snitch to the feds out of the kindness of their hearts.
They do so because they got caught doing something and have to to avoid jail or being exposed.

Did he do the right thing?

Did he do the right thing?
Yes. But he was probably forced to and I bet you Blago is not stepping down because he is making deals to expose everybody, including Obama, JJ Sr, Rahm, Rezko, Daley, et al.

Thanks for acknowledging that. I'll bet you that you are engaging in wishful thinking.

Simply Stunning ::)

Jackson jr should wear a wire to find out how his criminal father bankrupts charities,impregnates young girls and steals money from charities to support them,blackmails companies.etc etc.Jesse sr is a MUCH bigger hoodlum then ANYONE IN GOVERNMENT TODAY.

You must live under a rock to not know how these things go down.
He is making a deal as we speak to avoid jail and is giving up everybody he can, just like Rezko is trying to reduce is sentence.
Why do you think Rezko's sentencing keeps getting postponed?

While entertaining, your speculation is just speculation with a rightwing twist.
Look at how you got it into your head that your speculation has the color of fact:

That's rightwing fantasy. You paint a portrait in the worst way possible b/c you have a problem with the man doing the right thing...there must be----a slimey motive!
OK.

Also, your 'fact' about Jackson's emissaries is a disputed fact. It's in dispute.
Since Jackson is not being investigated or charged with anything, I would say that goes to the heart of your allegation.

Disputed by who?

Disputed by who?
By the man himself. Is he under investigation for the alleged act of his alleged 'emissaries'? No.
If he does come under investigation, then that's another matter. If he is guilty of an attempt crime then he will pay.
Until then, speculation is speculation.

:D
As I've explained before...Jesse Jackson Jr is the complete opposite of Jesse Jackson. He's actually very conservative and is good friends with George Bush Sr.
As far as snitch is concerned, its better than being the bait....... ;D

Blago is under investigation for trying to sell the seat and he is on record as saying that emmisaries from JJ Jr. came to him and said they would give 1 million dollars to have JJ Jr. appointed while someone else said they would give 500k.
Only a liberal party hack could try to spin this in a positive way.
