In the spirit of Chicago politics

In the spirit of Chicago politics, should you forward this, remember -- I never sent it, I don’t know you, and I don’t think we’ve ever met!

Rod Blagojevich is the former Illinois Governor who tried to sell Obama's seat in the Senate.

Obama was asked by the press if he had ever met Gov. Rod Blagojevich.

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















Yet here we see Rod Blagojevich, Barack Obama and Richard Daley during a rally in Chicago, April 16, 2007. (Photo Reuters )

To understand this "misunderstanding", you have to understand the world according to Chicago ....

While Chicago is a city in Illinois, it is like a different country when it comes to politics, with a whole different set of morals and language.

In Chicago politics, there are only three rules and one Prime Directive to remember. You don't even need an attorney to understand them -- and if you do need an attorney, well, you know too much...so look out.

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.

The PRIME DIRECTIVE in CHICAGO ... No matter how the vote turns out, the Democrats still win the election.

Here's an illustration. Remember, you know nothing.

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


The fellas in this picture. They never actually met face to face. 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 see your eye doctor... your eyes are lying to you!


Remember Jimmy Hoffa? He knew too much and now, well, no one knows where he is.

The picture below. It doesn't mean nothin'. You should forget it.
















Now, isn't that simple? They don't know each other and they never met!

How is that possible? 'Cause they said so! And, that settles it. Ca'pishe?

P.S. If you pass this on to your friends, don't forget: you know nothing, I know nothing, and they will know nothing.
