Congressional candidate Joel Pollak went straight to national news sources with a discovery he's made while researching his Democratic opponent in IL's 9th CD race -- that incumbent Jan Schakowsky and her felon husband Robert Creamer may have played an integral part in scheming Obama's government health care takeover.
Pollak points to a political strategy book Creamer wrote while in Terre Haute's federal prison, and connects to Obama political director David Axelrod's praise for Creamer's ideas. Pollak writes:
While in prison—or “forced sabbatical,” he called it—Creamer wrote a lengthy political manual, Listen to Your Mother: Stand Up Straight! How Progressives Can Win (Seven Locks Press, 2007).
The book was endorsed by leading Democrats and their allies, including SEIU boss Andy Stern—the most frequent visitor thus far to the Obama White House—and chief Obama strategist David Axelrod, who noted that Creamer’s tome “provides a blueprint for future victories.”
Indeed. Of course SEIU/ACORN-ies would drool all over Creamer's manual. It was while Creamer was working with an ACORN-esque group in Chicago that he check-kited and committed numerous financial felonies -- until the feds moved in. Pollak writes:
Rep. Schakowsky’s husband, Robert Creamer, used to be the leader of Citizen Action/Illinois. He also founded its predecessor, Illinois Public Action, in which Ms. Schakowsky served as Program Director. He runs a political consulting firm, the Strategic Consulting Group, which lists ACORN and the SEIU among its clients and which made $541,000 working for disgraced former Illinois governor Rod Blagojevich.
Creamer resigned from Citizen Action/Illinois after the FBI began investigating him for bank fraud and tax evasion at Illinois Public Action. He was convicted in 2006 and sentenced to five months in federal prison in Terre Haute, Indiana, plus eleven months of house arrest.
But that wasn't enough to be ostracized by Chicago Democrats, of course not. He remains a key instigator along with SEIU's Andy Stern and a key Democratic lawmaker in Congress -- his wife Jan.
