Emanuel: I'm Getting Death Threats Over Blagojevich Scandal
Quote
A spokesman for Emanuel said he later showed up at the office, apparently able to sneak out of the house without being seen by reporters waiting to ask him questions.

Back at his home, Emanuel appeared "beet-red," according to an ABC News cameraman who was invited inside by Emanuel to use his bathroom this morning.

An aide for Emanuel said late Friday afternoon that Emanuel did not make any remarks about receiving death threats. "While we appreciate this camera man's active imagination, this report is inaccurate," said Sarah Feinberg. Responding to Emanuel's comments, ABC News went back and double-checked with the camera man and we stand by the story.

This turd has the audacity to bitch about the heat that's coming down on him? Pissing and moaning about the press being all over him?

Too bad, dipshit.

If the heat's too hot, get the hell out of the kitchen. Careful what you ask for, chump, you just might get it.

Stupid is as stupid does.

I thought Emmanuel was supposed to be this big tough guy.  I guess he can dish it out, but he can't take it.  Too bad.

Yeah, the press built him up as some kind of "bulldog" yet as it turns out he's just a big wimp.

Typical Liberal.

I would have thought death threats among Chicago Mafiosi was a normal thing.

They got his ass on tape and the zero has already implicated himself even if he was using this loser as his go-between.

Time for a do-over.
My fellow Americans, there is nothing audacious about hope. Hope is what makes people buy lottery tickets instead of paying the bills. Hope is for the old gals feeding the slots in Atlantic City. It destroys the inner-city kid who quits school because he hopes he'll be a world-famous recording artist.

What's the difference between Sarah Palin and Barack Obama?

One is a well turned-out, good-looking, and let's be honest, pretty sexy piece of eye-candy.

The other kills her own food.

...and repeatedly stabbed a knife into a table saying "dead" after the names of his political enemies.

Try being Joe the Plumber.

Instead being like you, Mr Emmanuel, who has the USSS and instruments of state to protect him JtP had the instruments of government--the government that is chartered to protect him--turned against him...by people like you because you're too afraid your ambitions will become known after your boss accidently spoke the truth about what he thinks.

Yeah, the only people that normally make death threats when a scandal breaks are the people that think they might be going down if they guy they're threatening spills all the rest of beans.

ABC News says they're standing by the story, meaning they don't believe the aide. I think they're right, Rahmbo is claiming he's getting death threats - all of Barack Hussein Obama's team tend to think they're being persecuted. But if anybody's really threatening Rahmbo, it's Barack himself.

Liberal scandals are surfacing before the big Zero is even sworn in.  This is going to be a fun 4 years...And won't it be funny if we find a dotted line between Blagojevich and Obama.

Scandals galore...liberals can't help themselves, they are born criminals.

I'm so hoping that at least we can see the Big Zero's Chief of Staff get bounced before 2010.
