If Burris tries that again, he should be arrested.

Burris was appointed by a sitting Governor.
Like it or not, IL Governor is still the legal chief exec of that state. Thus, he has every legal right to fill the empty Senate seat according to Federal and Illinois law.
At the time of the appointment, the Governor was still the governor.
When this hits the US Supreme Court, they will side with the Governor.

Sorry. Blago is still the legitimate governor of Illinois, de facto and de jure. By law he is entitled to select whomever he chooses and the state law says the Illinois Secretary of State SHALL afix his seal. Which means that the Illinois Secretary of State in currently in violation of the law and could be arrested.
Burris is the legitimate junior senator from Illinois by law.
Harry Reid and his fellow Democrat thugs are in violation of the Constitution and the law...not that they care.
