>The logical lie that he nor anyone on his staff had spoken to the governor about his replacement. Dude, that strains credulity. I don't know why Harvey CCs you but I do because, sometimes, you can be a free-thinker.

I haven't seen anything from Obama claiming his staff had no contact with Blagojevich's on this subject. Got a cite for that?

What I have seen is his claiming that _he_ didn't talk to the gov or his staff and that no one on his staff made a deal about it.
