Uh Oh Blago...

Ex-Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich found guilty on 17 counts of corruption charges as reported by the Chicago Tribune.

I'm not understanding why he's stunned by the verdict since they have him on tape shaking people down. He should've autotuned himself and only then, will we possibly believe it is not his voice on the recordings. Juror 103 said what really did it for them, was the evidence of Rod selling President Obama's old U.S. Senate seat. BLAGO!

 

Blago Gets Tossed...

and I'm sure not the way he likes to.

After getting booted out of the office of Governor by 59-0, Blago responds.

The Blago Tapes

Where is all the curse words I'm supposed to be hearing? Don't tell me there are kids in the room...

Blagojevich Vs. Maddow

He rants and she roasts... well kinda

Blagojevich Vs. Walters

He rants she roasts... Well done you two. Can I just say her interviewing from a TV screen is very odd looking. Talking about seats, where is hers?

Seriously Blago?

It looks like Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich will be kicked out of his office by way of impeachment, as the Illinois House held hearings today. The vote was 111-1, obviously the latter for Blago. The debate took a measley 90 minutes, and nobody took up for Rod Blago during the hearing. MSNBC reports, Blago was impeached by the lower house of the legislative branch today, but still needs to be impeached by the upper house in order for this unprecedented event to take place.

The 52 year old claims to be a victim and is going to fight this to the end... I don't know Rod, it's lookin ovah to me... even if you did absolutely nothing, they want you out. So if I were you, I would keep doing your favorite pastime, jogging. Who knows, maybe you can be a trainer on the Biggest Loser.

Rahm Emanuel Soon To Be Exonerated

It is rumored that President-elect Barack Obama's White House Chief of Staff, Rahm Emanuel, was in cahoots with Illinois Governor, Rod Blagojevich, to try to "steer" Obama's Senate seat to a longtime friend of Obama's, Valerie Jarret. According to George Stephanopoulos on his ABC morning show today, he said Rahm is not down with Blago. Click here for more.

BLAGO

Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich was arrested this morning by FBI agents on corruption charges, by what you ask... trying to sell President-elect Barack Obama's Senate seat. I am curious what one offers to sit in what looks to be an uncomfortable non-reclining seat? I am also curious to know what other drama is going to surround Obama prior to his inauguration?

Considering the track record of Governors in Illinois, is the prerequisite to hold that title to act like a mobster?

For the record, Prez-elect Obama had no recollection of these goings on.
