Bill Clinton Made A Pit Stop At An Argentina Strip Club To Get A Lap Dance From Andrea Rincon

Source: blogywoodbabes.blogspot.com

WTF, Mark Sanford and Bill Clinton in Argentina at the same time for sex relief? There are reports from a local newspaper in Argentina as well as the Washington Post that Bill Clinton, after a fundraiser, had a little "private" party at a strip club. Just because his wife is Secretary of State, that doesn't mean Bill Clinton can't visit an Argentine stripper and pay off bouncers at the strip club so he can have a completely private strip show before dining with the country's president.

The place that he enjoyed the festivies is called El Cocodrilo, and apparently he had a decent time and got a table dance from Andrea Rincón ( see pictures below) and probably some herpes. Can't really blame the former president after all he has been through? The least he can do is get a little dance from a local South American stripper. His wife is a busy lady as Secretary of State and all. Not to mention that I don't think Hillary has giving him any since 1996. The report, printed in mainstream newsoutlets The Washington Post and The Daily Mail, is all the talk in South and Latin America:

Bill Clinton allegedly paid $1000 to close the VIP areas to have a private "baile hot" (strip show) by Andrea Rincon. The chick in question reported to the Argentine Press that she received US$1000, which converts to roughly 3700 Argentine pesos...

Bill Clinton was on a private visit to Argentina on behalf of his non-profit, Clinton Global Initiative. After an event, Clinton along with some of his buddies, to the city’s “red zone,” where they ended up at the Crocodile Night Club, a popular strip joint.

It was there where Bill Clinton took a liking to a dancer named Andrea Rincón, who is a pop culture sex bomb in Argentina. Clinton became entranced and asked for a “private” performance from the Latin firecracker.

Clinton later dined with President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner and her husband, former president Néstor Kirchner.Which country will he hit next?! Strippers, prostitutes & high end escorts anxiously await the news!

I have to be honest, the stripper is not all that hot but she is a huge step up from Monica Lewinsky. Clinton really needs to step his game up after Monica Lewinsky. I mean, for Christ sake, he was the most powerful man in the world for 8 years. Why is he choosing to settle for a half-rate stripper? He need to get one of those young hot starlets from Hollywood. Things sure have changed since the good old days of JFK and Marilyn Monroe. Anyway, much like the other woman in the Mark Sanford scandal, Clinton's stripper friend ran straight to the media. Thus leaving me with one question: Why can't Argentinean women keep their damn mouths shut when not in use by their lovers? LOL... Click on pictures to enlarge.


And to celebrate her new International fame she just posed holding a picture of Bill Clinton:

According to the Washington Post story a Clinton spokesman in New York said the story "is completely false. They were at the hotel playing cards with the former and current presidents" and "a small group of staff and friends."

The former Big Brother Argentina (or Gran Hermano, if you prefer) star Andrea Rincón had, at first, said she and Bill Clinton shared a harmless night of dancing at the Crocodilo cabaret in Argentina, and that, yes, she was paid for her services, but not by Clinton himself.

She has now modified her story to include the fact that the former president offered her $1,000 in return for sex. The way she tells it, she was just hangin’ out, being a famewhore, when someone from Clinton’s entourage came up to her and said that Clinton wanted her to perform a strip tease for him and his buddies in a private room.

William Jefferson "Bill" Clinton (born William Jefferson Blythe III, August 19, 1946 in Hope, Arkansas, U.S.A.) served as the 42nd President of the United States from 1993 to 2001. He was the third-youngest president; only Theodore Roosevelt and John F. Kennedy were younger when entering office. He became president at the end of the Cold War, and as he was born in the period after World War II, he is known as the first Baby Boomer president. His wife, Hillary Rodham Clinton, is currently the United States Secretary of State. She was previously a United States Senator from New York, and also candidate for the Democratic presidential nomination in 2008. Both are graduates of Yale Law School.

Clinton was described as a New Democrat and was largely known for the Third Way philosophy of governance that came to epitomize his two terms as president. His policies, on issues such as the North American Free Trade Agreement and welfare reform, have been described as centrist. Clinton presided over the longest period of peace-time economic expansion in American history, which included a balanced budget and a reported federal surplus. Based on Congressional accounting rules, at the end of his presidency Clinton reported a surplus of $559 billion. On the heels of a failed attempt at health care reform with a Democratic Congress, Republicans won control of the House of Representatives for the first time in forty years. Two years later, in 1996, Clinton was re-elected and became the first member of the Democratic Party since Franklin D. Roosevelt to win a second term as president. In 1998 he was impeached for perjury and obstruction of justice related to the Lewinsky scandal, but was subsequently acquitted by the U.S. Senate by a largely partisan vote.

Clinton left office with an approval rating at 66%, the highest end of office rating of any president since World War II. Since then, he has been involved in public speaking and humanitarian work. Clinton created the William J. Clinton Foundation to promote and address international causes such as treatment and prevention of HIV/AIDS and global warming.

In 2004, he released his autobiography, My Life, and more recently has been involved in his wife Hillary's 2008 presidential campaign and in that of President Barack Obama. In 2009, he was named United Nations Special Envoy to Haiti. blogywoodbabes.blogspot.com

Vice President Joe Biden on The 'Today' Show Said: I've Told My Family to Avoid Planes, Subways, Confined Spaces

Source: blogywoodbabes.blogspot.com

The vice president says his family and people in general should avoid public transit until swine flu subsides. It's probably never a good thing when your spokesperson has to put out a statement explaining what you REALLY meant. But Vice President Joe Biden said in his own words, "if you're in a confined aircraft and one person sneezes it goes all the way through the aircraft." Needless to say airline stocks dropped like rock this morning. I give the vice president a point for HONESTY but it would be great if everyone in the government was on the same page. If this advice is good for the family of the vice president it is also good for me. Biden also said:

"I would tell members of my family, and I have, I wouldn't go anywhere in confined places now." Biden said it wasn't just about not going to Mexico but that if "you're in a confined aircraft when one person sneezes it goes all the way through the aircraft." That even goes for the subway, Biden said. "So from my perspective, what it relates to is mitigation."

"If you're out in the middle of a field and someone sneezes, that's one thing. If you're in a closed aircraft or a closed container, a closed car, a closed classroom, it's a different thing."

Soon after, Biden spokeswoman Elizabeth Alexander issued a statement to White House reporters. It said:

"The advice he is giving family members is the same advice the Administration is giving to all Americans: that they should avoid unnecessary air travel to and from Mexico. If they are sick, they should avoid airplanes and other confined public spaces, such as subways. This is the advice the Vice President has given family members who are traveling by commercial airline this week. As the President said just last night, every American should take the same steps you would take to prevent any other flu."

The gaffe-master Vice President stomped all over President Obama's stay calm message by blurting out that he's told his family to stay off planes and subways to avoid swine flu and exacerbating all fears. To think, Joe Biden is a heartbeat away from the presidency…

Joe Biden caused jaws to drop today when he told Matt Lauer that he would advise his family not to get on trains or planes until the swine flu pandemic has subsided.

On NBC's "Today" show Lauer asked the vice president what he would say to a relative who asked how to proceed, to which Biden replied, "I would tell members of my family — and I have — that I would not go anywhere in confined places now … I would not be at this point suggesting they take the subway." People should not be clamoring to get into confined places, said Mr. Biden.

Biden even went into specifics: "It's not just going to Mexico - if you're in a confined aircraft and one person sneezes it goes all the way through the aircraft."

"That's me. I would not be at this point, if they had another way of transportation, be suggesting they ride the subway."

Biden's staff instantly went into damage control mode with a what-Joe-really-meant statement, saying the veep thought planes and subways were still okay for his family and they should stay off them only if they felt sick.

Biden's open mouth ,insert foot tendencies were a major concern in the President's inner circle during the campaign, when they bypassed then-Sen. Hillary Clinton in favor of the veteran Delaware senator.

The warning, and then the quick rollback, on planes and subways muddled the message of Obama and Mayor Bloomberg that the flu outbreak was a cause for concern but not for "alarm."

Sen. Tom Harkin (D-Iowa) slapped at Biden for his loose lips.

"As far as not riding on subways or planes, we're not going to shut down our system and that doesn't get to the nub of the problem anyway, so I think that's very unfortunate that this kind of misinformation got out," Harkin told reporters.

As for whether or not we should close our borders, Biden insisted such a measure wouldn’t be productive, because the virus has already found its way into the country. President Barack Obama last night told the nation that the best thing to do is cover your mouth when you cough and wash your hands regularly, which you should really be doing anyway.

Biography
--------------------------------------------

Joseph Robinette Biden, Jr. (born November 20, 1942 in Scranton, Pennsylvania. U.S.A.) is the senior United States Senator from Delaware. He is a member of the Democratic Party, and is currently serving his sixth term. Biden has served for the sixth-longest period among current Senators (fourth among Democrats) and is Delaware's longest-serving Senator. He is the Chairman of the U.S. Senate Committee on Foreign Relations in the 110th Congress. Biden has served in that position in the past, and he has served as Chairman of the U.S. Senate Committee on the Judiciary. He was a candidate for the Democratic Party's nomination in the 2008 presidential election, but dropped out after the caucuses in Iowa on January 3, 2008.

Biden was born in Scranton, Pennsylvania, the son of Joseph R. Biden, Sr. and Catherine Eugenia "Jean" Finnegan. He was the first of four siblings and is of Irish Catholic heritage. He has two brothers, James Brian Biden and Francis W. Biden, and a sister, Valerie (Biden) Owens. The Biden family moved to Claymont, Delaware when Biden was 10 years old, and he grew up in suburban New Castle County, Delaware, where his father was a car salesman. He also loved to play the flute in band, which earned him the nickname, "fleet flutin joe". In 1961, Biden graduated from Archmere Academy in Claymont, Delaware and, in 1965, from the University of Delaware in Newark, where he double majored in history and political science. He then attended Syracuse University College of Law, graduated in 1968, and was admitted to the Delaware Bar in 1969. blogywoodbabes.blogspot.com

In 1966, while in law school, Biden married Neilia Hunter. They had three children, Joseph R. "Beau" Biden III, Robert Hunter, and Naomi. His wife and infant daughter died in a car accident shortly after he was first elected to the U.S. Senate in 1972. His two young sons, Beau and Hunter, were seriously injured in the accident, but both eventually made full recoveries. Biden was sworn into office from their bedside. Persuaded not to resign in order to care for them, Biden began the practice of commuting an hour and a half each day on the train from his home in the Wilmington suburbs to Washington, DC, which he continues to do.

In 1977, Biden married Jill Tracy Jacobs. They have one daughter, Ashley, and are members of the Roman Catholic Church. In February 1988, Biden was hospitalized for two brain aneurysms which kept him from the Senate for seven months.

Biden's elder son, Beau, was a partner in the Wilmington law firm of Bifferato, Gentilotti, Biden & Balick, LLC and was elected Attorney General of Delaware in 2006. He is a captain in the Delaware Army National Guard, where he serves in the Judge Advocate General's (JAG) Corps. He is set to be deployed to Iraq in October. Biden's younger son, Hunter, works as a lawyer in Washington, DC, serves on the board of directors of Amtrak, and previously worked in the Commerce Department.

Since 1991, Biden has also served as an adjunct professor at the Widener University School of Law, where he teaches a seminar on constitutional law.In 1987, Joe Biden ran as a Democratic presidential candidate, formally declaring his candidacy at the Wilmington train station on June 9, 1987. In Biden's speech, he challenged Americans to step beyond the materialism of the Reagan years. When the campaign began, Biden was considered a potentially strong candidate because of his moderate image, his supposed appeal to Baby Boomers, his fundraising appeal (Biden's $1.7 million raised in the first quarter of 1987 was more than any other candidate, including the then front-runner, Gary Hart), his high profile position as chair of the Senate Judiciary committee during the Robert Bork confirmation hearings, and, perhaps above all, his soaring oratory. Biden often seemed to try to inspire the same hope and idealism assoicated with 1960s liberals such as Robert Kennedy, especially as related to civil rights. He received considerable attention in the summer of 1986 when he excoriated Secretary of State George Shultz at a Senate Hearing because of the Reagan administration's support of South Africa, which continued to support a system of Apartheid. By August 1987, however, Biden's campaign had already begun to lag behind those of Michael Dukakis and Richard Gephardt. blogywoodbabes.blogspot.com

Then in September 1987, the campaign ran into serious trouble when he was accused of plagiarizing a speech by Neil Kinnock, then-leader of the British Labour Party. Though Biden had correctly credited the original author in all speeches but one, the one where he failed to make mention of the originator was caught on video. Within days, it was also discovered that, while at Syracuse Law School, Biden had plagiarized a law review article in a class paper he wrote. Biden said the act was inadvertent due to his not knowing the proper rules of citation, and Biden was permitted to retake the course after receiving a grade of F in the course. Biden also released at the same time the record of his grades as an undergraduate which were C's and D's with the exception of two A's in physical education, one B in a course on English writers and an F in ROTC during his first three semesters. His grades improved later in his undergraduate career but were not exceptional. Further, when questioned by a New Hampshire resident about his grades in law school Biden had claimed falsely to have graduated in the "top half" of his class, (when he actually graduated 76th in a class of 85) that he had attended on a full scholarship, and had received three degrees. In fact he had received a single B.A. in history and political science and had not received a full scholarship.

Faced with these revelations, Biden withdrew from the nomination race on September 23, 1987, saying his candidacy had been overrun by "the exaggerated shadow" of his mistakes. After Biden withdrew from the race it was learned that the Dukakis campaign had secretly made a video showcasing the Biden/Kinnock comparison and distributed it to news outlets. Dukakis fired John Sasso, his campaign manager and long-time Chief of Staff. blogywoodbabes.blogspot.com

Rielle Hunter GQ Photos And Interview About John Edwards Affair

Source: blogywoodbabes.blogspot.com


The Rielle Hunter-John Edwards sex scandal saga continues to entertain. For the first time, Rielle Hunter is opening up about her tumultuous affair with John Edwards, a tryst that would eventually be the end of his presidential and political aspirations. Hunter, who also appears in a mildly-exposing photo shoot, says that she and Edwards were intimate from the very beginning, and goes into specific detail about their first encounter and how things played out after that, plus the "compassion" she has for Elizabeth Edwards. The mistress and the mother of former Senator Edwards' love-child, then cried to Barbara Walters that she is repulsed by her GQ photo shoot and claimed she thought they were only going to use head shots. This prompted GQ reporter Lisa DePaulo to go on Good Morning America and essentially say "Rielle Hunter is fucking liar!" The magazine fires back after she says she was repulsed by racy shots they took of her:

"Did she say she thought they would be headshots?" GQ reporter Lisa DePaulo asked incredulously on "Good Morning America."

"Rielle is a smart woman. She knows what she wore and what she was doing in the photo shoot," DePaulo said.

Hunter, a one-time videographer for Edwards' presidential campaign, posed for the pictures wearing only a man's button down white shirt, a string of pearls and panties. In some of the photos she is posed on a bed with stuffed animals piled around her. Her panties are peeking out in one frame.

But GQ released a video of the shoot to "GMA" today and at one point the videographer asks Hunter, "You want to take a look at this?"

It is kind of hard to claim you only thought a magazine was doing head shots when you're sitting in a pile of stuffed animals without pants on. Which raises another question: Why the hell are you being photographed in your child's bedroom without pants on? I dislike John Edwards but I am feeling a bit sorry for him at this point because I am sure Ms. Hunter lied to him that she was on the pill. And now she is using his love-child to gain fame and remind him exact how stupid he his to have shot load in her. Here are portions of the GQ interview with Rielle Hunter below:

On their first night together:

"I had never experienced anything like what was flowing between us. I sat on the other side of the room. I wouldn't go near him....There was sooo much attraction and sooo much...I want to say love, but it wasn't love at that point...it was just this, this magnetic force field like I had never experienced. It terrified me. And, um, I eventually walked over to his side of the room. [laughs] He was pretty relentless."

On breaking her silence:

"I feel comfortable talking now, because Johnny went public and made a statement admitting paternity. I didn't feel like I could ever speak until he did that. Because had I spoken, I would have emasculated him. And I could not emasculate him.... He's very supportive of me talking now....

"It's been four years. It's hard to know that people are out there speaking over and over and over again untruths. Lies. Consciously going out there and spinning the truth. Using me and Johnny and our relationship to make themselves look better, to play victim, or to get money."

Did he call you after the [televised] interview [where he denied paternity of your child]?

Hunter: Yes. And he said, "I’m sorry… It doesn’t mean anything." And it didn’t. I know he loves me. We love each other very much. He’s very honest and truthful.

But the irony of what you’re saying—right now, most people think he’s the most untruthful person in America.

Hunter: Everyone talks about how Johnny has fallen from grace. In reality, he’s fallen to grace. He is integrated. He is living a life of truth.

Um, what?! Are you fucking kidding me with this? But wait there is more:

Do you think he thinks that? That he’s more integrated now?

Hunter: Yeah. I think that he thinks that he is a much wiser and a much better and a more truthful and a more integrated human being.

You mentioned that it did go through your head, on that first night, that Johnny was married. Did that bother you?

Hunter: The force field of our love overrode any issues that would arise from my belief systems about, you know, “It should be going different than it is. He should be behaving differently than he is.” He doesn’t lie to me.

How can you be sure?

Hunter: [Because] he discloses everything to me. And he has no fear of lying to me. It’s the fear of what’s gonna happen that causes the lie. The fear of the repercussions.

Let me just stop right there so you can go grab a shovel, because you're gonna need it to get through the rest of this horseshit.

So even though you know he’s lied to his wife and his state and the country, you really never worry that he will lie to you?

Hunter: No. He does not lie to me. At all. [Before me], he had a huge fear. Most of his mistakes were because of his fear of the wrath of Elizabeth. He was emasculated.

Dear God this bitch is insufferable. Not to mention all kinds of deluded. She was made for John Edwards. I wonder if Edwards is the suicide type? He is probably too full of himself to finish the job. Click on pictures to enlarge.

John Edwards' Sex Scandal Update: Grand Jury Ready to Indict Edwards

Source: blogywoodbabes.blogspot.com

Former Sen. John Edwards is so screwed. America's most notorious weekly newspaper is repoting that Democrat John Edwards, the man the party wanted to put a heartbeat from the presidency in 2004, is about to be indicted by a Federal grand jury. At this point, the leaking of the sex video he made with his mistress Rielle Hunter is the least of his worries. Apparently, getting money was not a problem during his run for the White House. But apparently when people give you a shitload of money for your political campaign to hide your mistress that is a problem especially when you don't report the income to the IRS and a problem with the FBI if you don't fill out those pesty disclosure forums. If you want to unleash your penis for a vagina tasting tour of America, here's a hint: Don't be married, don't be running for President and keep your books in order. Just a thought. Because The National Enquirer sees an indictment in the near future of former presidential candidate, John Edwards. His wife Elizabeth… the woman who defended Johnny against that mean old Ann Coulter who mocked his masculinity. Oh dear. She will testify against her own husband at trial. A scorned woman is a very dangerous thing indeed. The National Enquirer report:

The ultimate fall from grace, a Federal grand jury is about to indict John Edwards, The ENQUIRER has learned exclusively.

In another shocker, close sources say Edwards' estranged wife Elizabeth could help send the former presidential candidate to jail!

Edwards, the disgraced two-time Presidential loser, is being investigated by the feds, including the FBI and IRS, for possible campaign violations related to paying his mistress Rielle Hunter.

The grand jury has been meeting since April 2009, and insiders say an indictment is imminent.

"John is terrified that he's going to be indicted," a friend told The ENQUIRER.

"While he believes he's done nothing illegal in trying to hide his extramarital affair with Rielle and their daughter, he thinks the Feds are going to make an example of him."

So John Edwards might be hearing those three little words which strike fear into the hearts of politicians everywhere: "You are indicted." That's one expensive piece of pussy. Don't know what guys like John and Tiger are thinking. You'd be better off picking up a hooker. The payout amounts/hush money are MUCH less. Now it is all IRS and money stuff. Hey, when you knock up your girlfriend and you don't want voters to know, it gets expensive. As always, the story on the Enquirer website is a teaser of what is contained in today's print edition of The National Enquirer which the story reminds readers they can pick up at news stands everywhere. As I said in the early days of this scandal and during the months of the investigation, my money is on the Enquirer in this one. The things they are going to do to a pretty boy like John Edwards in prison kinda make you feel sorta sorry for him. Anyway, here are some pics while we wait for the preggo sex video to leak. Click on pictures to enlarge.


Here is his mistress Rielle Hunter leaving after testifying for the Grand Jury:


Here are the pictures the current President of the United States wish he could take back:

Blago Is Governor No More, So Sad But It Was Good will It Lasted

Source: blogywoodbabes.blogspot.com

Illinois Senate ousts Blagojevich from office on corruption charges. The Illinois Senate voted unanimously to remove Gov. Rod Blagojevich from office Thursday despite his claim that he has "done absolutely nothing wrong." Lt. Gov. Pat Quinn will become governor. Blagojevich delivered closing arguments in his impeachment trial Thursday saying "give me a chance to be able to let the truth come out." This day mark the end to the political career of one of the most awesome dude in the history of American politics. Blago is even more awesome than Bill Clinton at his best. The best is when he compared himself to Martin Luther King, Jr., Mandela, and Ghandi in New York a few days ago. But something tell me this impeachment and removal will not be the end of his awesome entertainment.

"I’ve got this thing and it’s fucking golden"

Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich told lawmakers on Wednesday he wants to deliver a closing argument at his impeachment trial where he faces likely removal from office amid charges he tried to sell the U.S. Senate seat once held by President Barack Obama.

"The governor wishes to file an appearance to give a closing argument, not to testify or submit himself to cross-examination," John Cullerton, the state Senate president, told fellow senators in the state capital, Springfield.

The senators, acting as a jury after the second-term Democrat's impeachment by the Illinois House, were widely expected to vote on Thursday to find Blagojevich guilty of abuse of power and oust him from office. Under the rules of the trial, Blagojevich would have to be allowed to speak.

Asked about rumors that Blagojevich might resign before he could be voted out of office, his spokesman Lucio Guerrero said, "to my knowledge, the governor does not plan on resigning."

Blagojevich has denied wrongdoing and branded his impeachment an act of political vengeance and part of an effort to raise taxes. He has boycotted the trial that began on Monday, attempting to upstage the often dry proceedings by doing a flurry of media interviews in New York.

He maintained the impeachment trial rules did not allow either side to prove or disprove criminal charges against him. Witnesses and most of the recordings of FBI wiretaps that could shed light on the case were kept out at the request of prosecutors.

On the fourth day of the trial he had boycotted, Blagojevich spoke after House prosecutor David Ellis said the governor is guilty of "a pattern of abuse of power."Blagojevich, a lawyer, said he hoped the Senate would reconsider rules that prevent him from calling witnesses who might testify in a criminal case against him.

"How can you throw a governor out of office" without allowing him to present evidence or call witnesses, Blagojevich said angrily on Thursday in front of the State Senate. He said no criminal activity has been proved and said he was "clamoring and begging and pleading" for an opportunity to challenge the allegations against him.

"I'm appealing to you and your sense of fairness," he said.

Senators who spoke after Blagojevich's speech said they were unmoved by his claims of innocence.

"He did not present any evidence to contradict the sworn statements under oath," said Sen. William Haine, a Democrat.

Republicans were harsher. Despite Blagojevich's "spellbinding performance," said Sen. Dale Righter, the governor is a "devious, cynical, crass and corrupt politician … someone from whom the people of this state must be protected."

Blagojevich, a two-term Democrat, said he is innocent of each of the 13 counts in an article of impeachment approved by the Illinois House.

One count accuses him of unilaterally expanding a state health care program without the consent of the General Assembly. "How is it an impeachable offense to protect low-income parents from losing their health care?" he asked.

Another count says Blagojevich bought $2.6 million of flu vaccines that were never used. He said the money hasn't been paid and asked, "How can you throw a governor out of office who is acting to protect the lives of infants and senior citizens?"

He noted that the deal was made in his first term, yet he was re-elected in 2006. Addressing the charge that he imported prescription drugs from Canada, a move ruled illegal by the federal government, Blagojevich said, "If you're impeaching me" for doing so, the governors of Wisconsin, Kansas and Vermont also should be removed from office because they did the same thing.

In a series of TV interviews during the week, Blagojevich said the proceeding was fixed and unfair.

"There hasn't been a single piece of information that proves any wrongdoing," Blagojevich said. "How can you throw a governor out of office with insufficient and incomplete evidence?"

Blagojevich asked senators Thursday to consider extending the impeachment process to allow him to call witnesses.

"I'm here to appeal … to your sense of fairness, your sense of responsibility and to the truth," he said. "Give me a chance to show my innocence."

Blagojevich appealed for senators' compassion, describing his pain and loneliness and the shame felt by his two daughters.

"If I felt I did something wrong, I would have resigned in December," he said. "I wouldn't put my family through this, I wouldn't put you through this and most importantly I wouldn't put the people of Illinois through this."

He concluded his 50-minute speech by pleading, "Give me a chance to stay here, so we can roll up our sleeves and continue to do good things for people."

Blagojevich left the Capitol immediately after his presentation, taking a state plane home to Chicago for perhaps the last time.

Blagojevich was arrested Dec. 9 on federal corruption and bribery charges, including assertions that he tried to sell the U.S. Senate seat vacated by Barack Obama.

In three days of testimony, senators heard excerpts of federal wiretaps in which Blagojevich demanded campaign contributions in exchange for signing legislation diverting a portion of casino revenue to the horse-racing industry.

The tapes were played again Thursday as lawmakers sat silently in the packed Senate chamber.

This week, senators also heard FBI Special Agent Daniel Cain attest to the authenticity of the covert recordings and testimony about Blagojevich's alleged abuse of power.

--------------------------------------------

Milorad "Rod" R. Blagojevich (born December 10, 1956 in Chicago, Illinois, U.S.A.) was the 40th Governor of the U.S. State of Illinois, from 2003 to 2009. He was impeached on January 14, 2009, convicted & removed from office on January 29, 2009 due to corruption and misconduct in office. He previously represented parts of Chicago in the U.S. Congress, and was elected governor in 2002 and is a member of the Democratic Party.

Blagojevich was the second Serbian American to be elected governor of any state of the United States, after George Voinovich of Ohio. He was the first Democrat to be elected Governor of Illinois in 30 years (since Daniel Walker in 1972). Blagojevich has struggled annually to pass legislation and budgets, often opposed by many members of his own party (which controls the Illinois General Assembly) who perennially disagree with him over budget and other issues. He has been the target of multiple federal investigations and has historically low approval ratings within Illinois; Rasmussen called him "America's Least Popular Governor."

Blagojevich was arrested on federal corruption charges in early December 2008. The Illinois House of Representatives voted in January 2009 to impeach Blagojevich by a 114-1 vote, the first time such an action has been taken against a governor of Illinois. The corruption charges involved conspiracy to commit mail and wire fraud and solicitation of bribery. The Justice Department complaint alleges that the governor conspired to commit several "pay-to-play" schemes, including attempting to sell President Barack Obama's vacated United States Senate seat to the highest bidder. On January 29, 2009, he was convicted by the Illinois State Senate.

John Edwards And Rielle Hunter Made An Adulterous Sex Tape While He Was Trying To Be President

If you didn't think that the John Edwards affair scandal could get any sleazier, you would be wrong because Gawker is reporting that a sex tape exists and it features a part of Edwards that is apparently larger than his brain. Former North Carolina U.S. Senator, Democratic nominee for Vice President in 2004 and candidate for Democratic presidential nomination in 2008, John Edwards, reportedly has a sex tape with his mistress Rielle Hunter, the mother of his bastard child. The two made the sex tape that was later found by Andrew Young, one-time Edwards aide and author of The Politician, a new book whose released forced Edwards to admit his paternity of Hunter's 2-year-old daughter last week. Given that Rielle was his videographer and she was handy with those videocameras, it shouldn't be a huge surprise that she might have left one running while she and John Edwards got it on. Gawker report:

Sources have told us that, in the throes of their affair, John Edwards and Rielle Hunter made a sex tape that contains "several sex acts." And that his aide, Andrew Young found it on an unmarked DVD. The tape, say both our sources, is explicit and reveals that Edwards "is physically very striking, in a certain area. Everyone who sees it says 'whoa'. She's behind the camera at first."

When rumors of the affair first broke Young was so loyal to Edwards that he pretended that he was the father of Hunter's daughter Frances Quinn, now 2. But part of Young's disillusionment with the 2004 vice presidential candidate and 2008 candidate came one day as he went through a stack of DVDs at Rielle Hunter's house. It was this betrayal that prompted Young to write his tell-all book, The Politician, out February 2.

It's expected that he'll reveal further details in that story, and in the 20/20 interview to promote it, to air on Friday. "It [the tape] was kind of the last straw for people who had sacrificed savings and jobs to lie for John," said one of our sources. "You should expect to see plenty more stories about him coming out of the woodwork when more people realize how... complicated... his motivations were."

Up until he discovered the DVD, says one of our sources, Young's devotion was typical of the "cultish" fervor Edwards brought out in his staffers. This is why, says our source, who is close to Hunter, major media organizations could not stand up the affair story despite well-intentioned efforts. "They [staffers] would do anything to stop it coming out — they lied, they bullied, they called reporters' editors and bad-mouthed them, they exchanged access."

LOL, failed presidential candidate John Edwards is well-endowed but Bill Clinton only has a 5 inch penis. So, now we know big dicks get guys everything they want, right? LOL... God work in mysterious ways. Poor Bill... I kinda doubt the sex tape rumor only because we haven't seen it yet, but time will tell. Mark February 2 on your calender and lets see what happen when the book is leased. Someone will likely shell out some big briefcases full of cash to get their hands on it, either Edwards himself or some newspaper. One thing is for sure, John Edwards is a pathetically self absorbed moron who has no concern for anyone but himself. John Edwards based his ill-fated presidential campaign on a pledge to wage class war against the wealthy in favor of everybody else in what he called the "two Americas" rich and poor. While he was busy creating two Americas of his own with his rich family in his mansion and his poor family he meets at hotels.

A federal grand jury is investigating whether Edwards misused campaign funds in his bid for the 2008 Democratic presidential nomination as hush money for Hunter, with whom he struck up an affair. Hunter was paid over $100,000 by the Edwards campaign in 2006 to produce a series of videos as the campaign videographer but those videos were never used. So Edwards has something more important to worry about than a sex video. Screw the sex tape, Edwards is potentially facing serious jail time. Click on pictures to enlarge.


A then Democratic presidential hopeful Sen. Barack Obama and former U.S. Senator John Edwards shake hands during a rally at the Van Andel Arena on May 14, 2008 in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Edwards announced his endorsement of Obama after Sen. Hillary Clinton won the West Virginia primary. A few months early Edwards asked Obama for the Vice President spot on the ticket but was turned down:

Johnny Reid "John" Edwards (born June 10, 1953 in Seneca, South Carolina, U.S.A.) is an American politician who served as a U.S. Senator from North Carolina. He was the Democratic nominee for Vice President in 2004, and was a candidate for the Democratic presidential nomination in 2004 and 2008.

He defeated incumbent Republican Lauch Faircloth in North Carolina's 1998 Senate election. Towards the end of his single six-year term, he sought the Democratic presidential nomination in the 2004 presidential election. He eventually became the 2004 Democratic candidate for vice-president, the running mate of presidential nominee Senator John Kerry of Massachusetts.

After Edwards and Kerry lost the election to President George W. Bush and Vice-President Dick Cheney, Edwards began working full-time at the One America Committee, a political action committee he established in 2001, and was appointed director of the Center on Poverty, Work and Opportunity at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill School of Law.
