Illinois Politics

OH WOW!!!! I haven't laughed this hard in a long time. Thank you Rod Blagojevich!!

In the past, Illinois and Chicago have been the butt of jokes due to their politicians. EVERYONE knows dead people vote in Chicago!!! They have had 3 former Governors sent to prison in the last 35 years. Blago looks to make that 4!

If you have been under a rock today, Blagojevich was arrested today and charged with wire and mail fraud for trying to "auction" off the Senate seat being vacated by President-Elect Barack Obama. It was not your typical auction...he just was going to appoint the person who gave him the best bang for his appointment.

This is JUST WRONG!!! It's about time they were able to nail him for his bad politics. (And, the icing on the proverbial cake--they arrested him the day before his birthday. Happy Birthday, Rod!!!)
