Jan Schakowsky and her felon husband Robert Creamer may have played an integral part in scheming Obama's government health care takeover.
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.
He also worked for “Camp Obama.”
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. He has continued his work at the Strategic Consulting Group, leading “many of the country’s most significant issue campaigns."
Creamer wrote a political strategy book / 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.” ......go check out the peeps here:
In the book, Creamer draws lessons from decades of experience on the radical left, including the teachings of arch-radical Saul Alinsky, and several episodes from Rep. Schakowsky’s political career. He also lays out a “Progressive Agenda for Structural Change,” which includes a ten-point plan for foisting universal health care on the American people in 2009.....

He was also at the White House state dinner last month despite the fact that ex-convicts are usually barred from such events.

Democrats have cut deals with the pharmaceutical industry and the American Medical Association...
They have bused in SEIU members to town hall meetings, and used rabbis and pastors to back health care reform...
They have brought in the President himself to tell wavering “Blue Dog” Democrats that their re-election chances depend on passing health care reform...
They have used a complex, interconnected web of organizations, you know who they are, to whip up support and silence opposition...
And they have benefited from hundreds of millions of dollars in advertising to convince the public to support bills that their representatives have never read themselves...
