Chicago Politics Now In Washington - "You don't know nothing!"

Lois Smith, ARRA Member: Before proceeding, I must clarify "I know nothing," and after you read this "you will also know nothing." I am married to the ARRA Editor, and I can assure you that "he knows nothing either."

After listening to the only remaining fair and balanced news channel, I have wondered what is going on in the minds of the people in the Obama Administration? We now have: bailouts, stimulus spending, government run auto companies, apologies to everyone, and trillions of dollars in debt. It is obvious that they "know nothing." Yesterday I received the following "don't know nothing" email. My husband, the editor, tried to tell me that he had seen it before but "what does he know? -- right, nothing!" So, in case your email has not been blessed with this, the following will help "you know nothing."

Consider the situation of Impeached Former Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich who is accused of trying to sell the Obama seat in Congress.

Barack Obama said: "I only saw Rod Blagojevich one time ... and that was in the stands and from a distance at a Chicago Bears Football Game"

Unscripted Teleprompter : Dang! Why uh-uh, where did that uh photo come from? -------------------- Rod Blagojevich (Democrat), Barack Obama (Democrat), and Richard M. Daley (Democrat - Mayor of Chicago since 1989) during a rally in Chicago , April 16, 2007.

To understand the Obama Administration, you have to understand Chicago Politics. The Illinois Constitution actually sets forth different rules for Cook County, e.g. Chicago, and the rest of Illinois. Sort of a State within a state.

There are only three rules which anybody needs to understand. You don't even need an attorney to understand them and if you need an attorney, well, you know too much . . . so look out for Rule #3!

• RULE #1...No matter what you see, hear, or do, you don't know anybody and you don't know nothing!
• RULE #2...If you capture something on tape or camera, it doesn't reveal nothing!
• RULE #3...If you know what everybody knows in Chicago, well, you still don't know nothing.
  Now pay close attention! We don't want to have to say this more than once. It's very simple.....we'll illustrate. Remember, you know nothing.

These two? They don't know each other! They said they didn't.

The fellas in the background of this picture? Well, what fellas? We don't see nothing!

The guy on the left? For all you know he's Santa Claus. And the guy on the right . . ...well, he's the Easter Bunny! That's all you need to know.

Go to your eye doctor...your eyes are lying to you! Ca'pish?

Remember Jimmy Hoffa! He knew too much and now, well, now no one knows where he is. Is the big picture clear? Not these pictures! Remember, You've already forgot them ...

Now, ain't that simple? They don't know each other, 'cause they said so! and neither do we! And don't forget it!
-------
P.S. If you pass this on to your friends, don't forget, you know nothing and they will know nothing.
