We're like 15 votes away from it being official.  It's gonna happen!

A little under two thousand years ago, an innocent man was found guilty of crimes he didn't commit, by a selfish government. That man's name was Jesus of Nazareth.

Today, a similar injustice has taken place.

Actually, one of the votes wasn't recorded, so they had to redo it to make it official. Vote was 59-0.

The Senate also voted 59-0 to ban Blago from ever holding office in the state again.

Yay, he's gone!

And Lief has gone a little off the deep end now that Obama's actually in office.

You have no idea, no idea at all, how much I want him to make that comparision himself. Publically.

Although maybe you do Smiley

Are you sure your real name isn't Rod Blagojevich?

The Democrat culture of corruption continues.

Corruption knows no party.  But hypocritical Democrats made a big deal about supposed Republican-only corruption in 2006.  They should be hoisted on their own petard, as far as I'm concerned.   You reap what you sew.

Unanimous. What a vindictive lynch mob. Sad

This is truly a sad day in American history

It is a well-known fact that women are known to fall in love with murderers, serial killers, and other thugs.  Therefore, Becca's admiration for Blago should not be considereated out of the ordinary.  No doubt, when he is in prison, he will be the recipient of many love letters from adoring female fans.

Becca is probably a dude.

yes, but the corrupt Democratic (former) govenor was thrown out of office by a Senate in which his own party (the Democrats) have a supermajority. Wink

Rod greets his adoring fans after hearing the news:



the man is a pimp.

That's you, right?

He's not the only corrupt Democrat governor or office holder forced from office within the past year.

Yes, I'm sure the Republicans will openly admit they have internal corruption issues and never mention the Democrats' corruption.  If they fail that, I expect that you will support hoisting them by said petard too.

You've used that last phrase at least twice in the past couple of days. It's "sow", as in sowing seeds in a field, not as in sewing with thread.
