I'm a little disappointed Gov. Blago wasn't arrested wearing his Elvis jammies, but what are you going to do?
Seriously, I'm surprised that this happened this way. Oh, not that he's corrupt (like, sadly, other Illinois governors). I think most people in the state fully expected him to be arrested after his term expired for his many other misdeeds. I just can't believe he was so monumentally stupid as to pull something like this. Knowing that many of his cronies have been convicted, did he really think that he could escape this time. Un-freakin'-believable.
I can stand here and tell you that the term "Honest Illinois Politician" is not an oxymoron, but I can see why outsiders don't believe it. We do have some wonderful people representing our state...we just picked a politically connected dipweed to run our state.
Oh, alphagamzetagam, we love the hair in our house, too. We call it the hair helmet. Did you notice how it didn't move during his press conference in front of Republic?
