    Jackson is no better than Blago, Ryan, Walker, Rostenkowski and the many other thieves in government and that
    Includes his wife. These people are the reason Crook County and Chicago are looked down on as a cesspool of
    Corruption. Will they ever learn.

    Plea bargain? Seems like an unseen hand (Chief Executive) is orchestrating a mere tap on the wrist for Jackson. There should be no plea bargain for this crook! The feds should dig deeper and gather more evidence. The taxpayers lose again! Seize all his assets!

      Are you referring to a skirt chasing reverend without a church that was able to coerce his family into a liquor distributor company?

    Бык дерьмо, He needs to do the max, as well as his wife. I for one am sick to death of this Special Treatment the Political Royalty gets in this country. They are criminals, just like illegals are illegal. Бык дерьмо. And Barry, stay out of this it does not concern you..

    I don't understand why Jackson is being cosidered for a deal. Is it because he is black and Obama wants him protected as much as possible?
