Things are starting to get good in Barry's old stomping grounds.
Blago’s going all in. I love it. Too bad it taints the 0ne with that ‘corrupt Chicago pol’ thingy. Oh well, the sheeple ignored the Reverend Wright, terrorist Ayers, criminal Rezco etc. This too will pass. But not for a while. ;^)
The perfect start for the wonderful world of Obama & Company. I will enjoy watching the MSM sugar coat it all.
"Rep. Bobby Rush (D-Ill.), who attended the press conference with Blagojevich and Burris, praised the governor's decision and said it was an answer to his prayers..."

From the article: REVOLUTIONARY HEROES
"On May 1st, May Day [1969], the day of the gigantic Free Huey rally, two of Alioto's top executioners vamped on the brothers from the Brown Community who were attending to their own affairs. These brothers, who are endowed with the revolutionary spirit of the Black Panther Party defended themselves from the racist pig gestapo.
Pig Joseph Brodnik received his just reward with a big hole in the chest. Pig Paul McGoran got his in the mouth which was not quite enough to off him.
The revolutionary brothers escaped the huge swarm of pigs with dogs, mace, tanks and helicopters, proving once again that "the spirit of the people is greater than the man's technology."
To these brothers the revolutionary people of racist America want to say, by your revolutionary deed you are heroes, and that you are always welcome to our camp."

The whole early morning arrest performance was drama queen misdirection by Fitz.
All blago has to do is wait until Jan 20. 0 tosses Fitgerald under a bus and the whole thing goes away with burris installed as Senator—all in the name of racial harmony.
please, please, please, pretty please let this go on as long as possible.....
Maybe the appointment isn’t a based on race and maybe it is.I can certainly see why it would be expedient to appoint a black man, but one thing is for certain; Bobby Rush is a RACIST and should be tried on anti-discrimination charges. Those 12 minutes proved what a disgrace Illinois is
Those are
1) each senator must be at least 30 years old,
2) must have been a citizen of the United States for at least the past nine years, and
3) must be (at the time of the election) an inhabitant of the state they seek to represent.
The senate may refuse to seat a person to the senate who fails to meet one or more of these criteria.
Once seated a senator be removed from the senate by a vote of the senate.
The Constitution permits the Senate to expel any member by a two-thirds majority vote. But they would have to seat the Blago appoinment and then expell him.
Consider the danger if the senate could vote to not seat any senator. Say the Demorats hold 51 seats in the senate. But lose enough so the new senate will only have 40 Democrats.
So the old senate refuses to seat all the newly elected Republicans... so the Democrats continue to have a majority of a senate with only 79 members becuase they refused to seate the 21 newly elected Republicans.
I look for the supreme court to overrule Harry Reid. And the new Senator selected by Blago to not be too interested in supporting anything that Harry Reid was for.
Let’s hear it...Happy Days Are Here Again...

Blagojevich Plays The Race Card On Fellow Democrats
Legal Insurrection Blog ^
Posted on Tuesday, December 30, 2008 2:28:09 PM by Legal Insurrection
Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich’s appointment of Roland Burris has put the Democratic party in a box. By appointing an African-American to the empty Senate seat, Blagojevich has forced his political opponents to risk being called racists. In supporting the appointment, Congressman Bobby Rush called opposition to Burris an attempted lynching. Whether this analogy is justified is questionable, but it is the same tactic that has been used against conservatives for decades, most recently by the Obama campaign. Democrats are getting a dose of their own medicine, and I hope it goes down like a bitter pill.
