Or else ... ?
From J.R. at the Astute Bloggers:
And it doesn't take much of an ear to hear the "or else"The last thing Sen. Barack Obama and Gov. Rod Blagojevich needed was that letter written by convicted Illinois influence peddler Tony Rezko promising he'd never rat out his pals. The imprisoned political fixer insisted that federal prosecutors are squeezing him, according to an exclusive Tribune report written by federal courts reporter Jeff Coen for Thursday's paper.

"They are pressuring me to tell them the 'wrong' things that I supposedly know

selfish purposes. I will take whatever comes my way, but I will never hurt
innocent people."
Amen, Tony. But those who say nothing don't brag. They shut up.
