"My father-in-law had a bad accident, and passed away."

I am so sorry to hear that. I pray the Lord gave comfort during this time of sad loss.

"....have allowed William Jefferson (D)LA to stay in office even though he has been indicted."

I heard he was no longer in office. The voters voted him out.

He was not CONVICTED only indicted. Ang (R) beat Jefferson last November.

Blago, for the record, is not indicted yet. He's just under investigation. Alas, indictments are likely coming down soon now that Blago is out of office. Later this year Fitzfong should try Blago.

Didn’t realize that. However he should have been tossed out on his a$$ the minute they found the cash in his freezer and he was indicted...

Reminiscent of the losers serenading President Bush on his departure on inauguration day, I offer to Blago:

Na,na,na,..na....na,na,na...na, hey,hey-ey goodbye!

I’m watching MSNBC because they are giving this the most coverage. Hardball is pressing hard on Kwame Raoul and Lisa Madigan, and they have an absolute look of fear on their faces. There is more to this than meets the eyes, people. My gut tells me this is far from over.

Me, too! He has nothing to lose now.

In a strange sort of way, I’m going to miss him. He was colorful and entertaining.

Fitzgerald knew exactly what he was doing. It was exposed at the point ‘just prior to’ the evidence (and awareness by the FBI) that Obama and his chief enforcer, Emanuel, actually committed a crime as opposed to the ‘appearance’ of impropriety. It was a Democrat ASS COVERING move, period.

Gaffer, what you said-----was worth repeating. You broke the code.

He has a constitutional right to a fair criminal trial. He does not have a constitutional right to elected office.

True, but I wonder how that will look if he is found innocent in court. Stranger things have happened.

Why did you direct that response to me? I don't recall that I said he was convicted nor indicted. I only said the voters voted him out of office.

He refused to move into the governor’s mansion...

He would have had to replace all of his escape tunnels and money stashes.

Thanks. Is he known to be corrupt or is he a pretty straight guy?

They supposedly had his stuff packed earlier today before they even took the vote. They boxed it all up.
