Blago defies Illinois

[apb]

While he is certainly within his rights to appoint a new senator, it was not in the best interest of Illinois to do so under these conditions.

The man is a sociopath and needs to be removed from office ASAP.

He has put himself and the State of Illinois in the limelight of corruption. I bet Barry and his team are fuming that this nutball will not go away.

Let the courts try him! Public opinion is not a court of law.Lets not forget that guy in Atlanta who was put to death in the media, and later found out there were no charges.

I know I'm being mean spirited here but I love the fact that a Left Wing nutball LIberal with ties (however small) to Barry is being jumped on by the media and public opinion. Just warms my heart

Oh yeah public opinion is what it's all about in this country. The election proved that. That's a different topic.

I think Blago filled the seat or is trying to fill the seat with this guy to replace Barry Obamy. The guy is black and so is Barry, Barry was the only black man in the State to be in the Senate. So Blago picked the guy to keep a black man in the seat..Now if the Senate and or Illinois Attorney General keep this guy from keeping the seat. It'll look bad for whoever rules against this guy and most likely the race issue will come out sure fire. This I believe is the whiole reasoning behind Blago picking this guy as a scapegoat and someone who has enough experience in public office to fight for the job. Somehow I don't think Blago has the best interest in mind for the State of Illinois...just stirring up the pot a little while he still can......

Evidence on him breaking the law in hand 100%....Impeach him and move on, making a total mockery out of the whole State Law Makers for sure..... most likely his real intention as well......

I myself think he is guilty as sin. I also think chaney leaked the CIA agent mess, but what happened? If the government has the proof, take himto trial in the courts, not on TV.There should be a special election held as soon as possible to fill that seat, it effects national government, so maybe uncle sugar should foot part of the bill, after all we are bailing out every one but me, and if the state of Illinois wont do what is right, or CANT, well?But in the mean time we need to follow the laws, even if most folks dont like them. And a govenor has a lot of power, and it is his duty to fill that seat.Did the government release any of the tapes to the public? I dont think so, som its guilt by innuendo.

Totally and completely correct!!!!!!! He is a joke and I still think he looks like Peppermint Pattie. That is a really odd looking dude, and he is what RoadToad said he was pure and simple, and should be impeached TODAY.
