Quoting Richardson in the article:

"Let me say unequivocally that I and my Administration have acted properly in all matters and that this investigation will bear out that fact," he said Sunday in a report by NBC News' Andrea Mitchell. "But I have concluded that the ongoing investigation also would have forced an untenable delay in the confirmation process."

The article further states:

A person familiar with the proceedings has told The Associated Press that the grand jury is looking into possible "pay-to-play" dealings between CDR Financial Products and someone in a position to push the contract through with the state of New Mexico.

Try waiting for the truth. There's an ongoing investigation, and you'll have your answers soon enough, but unless you have further evidence, the certainty inferred by your use of the word, "must" is presumptuous, at best.

Hmmm... seems to be a better "reasonable suspicion" than your in that other thread ;)

Rahm? Duh.

What wrongdoing is he accused of?

Another BHO "admin" under a cloud?

Have you been living under a rock? Hello? Blago? BHO's Senate seat? Rahm's seat? Surely you can't be that naive...

I've read all about it and as far as I can tell there is no evidence of any wrongdoing.. so instead of a bunch of question marks I'd like to see from you a specific allegation backed up by facts.

Remember pay to play in Iraq. Halliburton, Exxon, Chevron, Cheney. Billions down the drain and thousands dead.

If you don't like it - tough. There are no "allegations" besides being under a cloud - which he is to any rational person looking at the Blago situation.

Uh, Blago is not part of the BHO admin. What are you saying Rahm did wrong?

Halliburton had no bid contracts with Cheney still collecting a paycheck from them. That is a fact.

Bad wording, I guess...

But yeah, Rahm is fine as of now. He did speak to Blago about replacements, but that was on a professional level. He doesn't have a connection to the illegal stuff.

epic lulz.. to be 'under a cloud' there still needs to be specific allegations of wrongdoing. You don't just get to place people 'under clouds' willy-nilly

epic partisan naivety :roll: There is an investigation into BHO's seat and Blago trying to sell it. Rahm is smack dab in the middle of it as he had conversations with Blago. So while there may not be specific allegations against him(I never stated there were) - there most definitely a cloud around him and the situation as a whole.

Now are you apologists just going to whine about "another" instead of looking at Richardson?
