Here we go again ...

Remember when Kwame Kilpatrick started actin' a fool? Well, folks, another democrat is fuckin' shit up again ... I introduce you to Illinois Governor, Rod Blagojevich, shown here in this Associated Press file photo:



As you may know, now that Barak Obama is President Elect, he vacates a senate seat. Additionally, as Governor of Illinois it is Blagojevich who gets to appoint Obama's replacement to finish out the current term. So, a democrat (Blagojevich) gest to make this appointment.

[insert loud crowd cheering noises]

Yet, Blagojevich has been arrested because he was trying to SELL the senate seat for personal gain.

[in unison, crowd "awwwwww"]

That's right, folks ... the Governor of the State of Illinois has been incarcerated for trying to seel a fucking senate seat to the highest bidder, proof positive that the origin of the term Windy City is indeed in regards to politics in the City of Chicago and not just due to the weather. The City of Cincinnati totally feels justified right now. (you'll have to wikipedia The Windy City and read about the Cincinnati reference if you really want to)

Ok, I remember when Kwame crossed the damn border to go into Canada while he was on parole and came back talkin' about how he didn't know he couldn't leave the country even on official city business. (Right, because Mayors have trouble interpreting the law) And I even remember the whole wide-stance incident with the Idaho senator at the MN airport - because no one EVER finds out about your tawdry sexcapades in public places ....

But trying to sell Barak Obama's senate seat?! REALLY!? Idiot, Idiot, IDIOT - just the first Black man to become President and you're going to inconspicuously sell his senate seat to the highest bidder? Seriously?

Look, I was walking down Jackson Blvd yesterday when his motorcade rode by. The streets were blocked off and those secret service men with their (quite menacing looking, I might add) sniper fire at the ready in those Black full-sized SUVs rode by first with all their windows open ... then a bunch of decoy vehicles (don't ask me which one Obama was in) ... and bringing up the rear? An ambulance ... (maybe in case those snipers at the front of the motorcade actually had to take someone out - who knows) ....

And you think that things surrounding this man go unnoticed? Seriously? You do know that the secrete service and FBi and CIA et. al. can tap your phones, right Governor? Oh - my bayd. I'll add your stupid ass to the wide-stance/can't leave the country on parole? list of political ridiculousness.

So, just so we're clear - within the last year, there have been scandals involving

  • The Governor of New Jersey
  • The Governor of New York
  • A Presidential nominee
  • A senator from Idaho
  • The Mayor of Detroit
  • The Governor of Illinois

Mark Twain once said that there are lies, damned lies and statistics. I'd like to add politics to the list, please. Thank you.

I got this from a friend - don't know the origin (but things travel fast here in Chicago:

***

In a two-hour conference call with Obama advisers in Washington and Chicago on November 10, Blagojevich apparently erupts in frustration at their refusal to pay him for appointing the president-elect's preferred candidate. "Fuck him. For nothing? Fuck him," Blagojevich says. He calls Obama a "motherfucker".

***

The clue is: "oh, I'M a mother fucker? OK."

JACK BUZZES IN

"What is what Obama said on November 10 after his peeps had that conference call with Blagojevich"

Alex Trebek: CORRECT

This has been all the talk and I am just dumb stupid, because who the hell thinks to sell someone's damn senate seat? I didn't even know the shit was possible. Excuse the language.

Ain't this a fool? Liek for real- I couldn't believe this!

The Jaded NYer said...

I'm so mad he got busted... I was the highest bidder on that damn seat just yesterday but nooooooo! The feds just have to be all up on eBay and in my business. DAMMIT! There go my political aspirations...

Dave Van Buren said...

it is a recession. People need to make cash anyway possible. Selling Senate seats is better than selling crack right?

JACK said...

One Man - you can sell anything other people are willing to buy, man. It's a fact.

Darius - I was a bit dumbfounded by it. The stupidity is only surpassed by his own claim of innocence. Give up, dipshit - you guilty.

Jaded - I'm sorry, who is you again? Stop commenting on my blog.

clnmike - You put it too mildly, sir

SuperDave - there you go again ... leave it up to you. Either crack or a senate seat ... both will land you jail time.
