I am not the only one who can’t get the article.
Ace of Spades and littlegreenfootballs are posting about the same problem.

They also have a retraction by KHQA:

Obama Did Discuss Senate Seat with Blagojevich – Update: KHQA Pulls Their Articles
http://littlegreenfootballs.com/article/32137_Obama_Did_Discuss_Senate_Seat_with_Blagojevich_-_Update-_KHQA_Pulls_Their_Articles

Barack Obama has denied ever discussing his Senate seat replacement with Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich.

KHQA has now issued “a clarification:”

The story housed in our website archive was on the morning of November 5, 2008. It suggested that a meeting was scheduled later that day between President Elect Obama and Illinois Governor Blagojevich. KHQA has no knowledge that any meeting ever took place. Governor Blagojevich did appear at a news conference in Chicago on that date.

However, there’s still no explanation for why they reported on November 8th that the meeting had taken place.

Let the A$$ kissing and re-writing of history begin.
Isn’t it great when the press is in your hip pocket.

Baxter – my link here still finds the article. More than likely they blocked the Drudge link as links coming from the Drudge Report have been known to overload servers.

iam7545 on December 10, 2008 at 3:52 PM

Okay.

I copied and saved it anyway.
Google and many newspapers(Chicago tribune especially) seem to take down information that is detrimental to democrats.

Is it just me or does Axelrod look like Al Bundy’s brother?

Having said that, Axelrod is a liar who will get away with anything.

No one will think Obama did anything wrong.

Case closed.

Move on.

QUINCY, IL — Now that Barack Obama will be moving to the White House, his seat in the U.S. Senate representing Illinois will have to be filled.

Obama met with Governor Rod Blagojevich earlier this week to discuss it
. Illinois law states that the governor chooses that replacement. There’s already been speculation about his selection…from Congressman Jesse Jackson, Junior to Illinois Department of Veterans’ Affairs Director Tammy Duckworth.

Duckworth made an appearance in Saturday’s Veterans’ parade in Quincy. We asked her about the possibility of filling Obama’s seat.

“The Governor’s office confirmed yesterday that he is considering me and I am deeply honored jus to be considered. I hope whoever is selected is someone who is willing to travel around the state and gets to know this wonderful state. I’m just honored to be considered,” Duckworth said.

The governor expects to make his decision before Christmas. Part of the timing depends on when Obama officially vacates his senate seat.

(In case it’s removed)

Shep Smith is peddling as fast as he can on this right now on Fox. Tool.

Why would the Governor be subject to arrest if all he did was think about selling Obama’s seat? It’s no good trying to get a sweetheart deal off of an appointment if you don’t actually communicate with the other party (from whom you want the deal) and that isn’t just J.J. Jr, not based on what those tapes indicated.
