Blago Begins Burning Bridges
- Refusing to go quietly, former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich spat a new round of venom today at the same lawmakers who drove him out from office, accusing them of having affairs and drinking too much while being "holier than thou."
"This is how the system in Springfield works, where a bunch of these lawmakers go down to Springfield," Blagojevich said. "Nobody even knows who they are. They're away from their families. It's a whole different world down there. A bunch of them are cheating on their spouses.
Name names Blago, name names! Truth is an affirmative defense. Royko outlined the basics of an entire State Government culture that kept their jobs "with their tails" in his book "Boss. This might get very entertaining.

Oh, goody. At least he's going to make it interesting.
Whatever this guy is all jacked up on, double the dosage; it keeps him flying from coast to to coast and border to border, talking his fool head off into every microphone he sees.
The more his life disintegrates -- the high point for me was when the state police security detail at his house "got a phone call," looked at each other, then piled into their cars and drove away forever -- the more likely it is that he will "not go gently into that good night," but will clutch at anyone near him and try to pull them over the edge as well.
I wonder how long his house'll be on today's depressed market. It's not as though he's famous or noteworthy, and who needs the leftovers -- carloads of idiots driving by yelling all night, standing on the grass taking pictures, etc.
Sing like a little birdy, Blago! Sing your heart out! Tell us ALL about how fucked up our political "leaders" are!
Blago should be the last one to condemn legislators, considering he was one in Springfield and Washington, DC, where he took orders from the DNC, Daley, Madigan and others.
Dis Madison Street stroll ain't shit but chump change. I'm gonna get my ass down to Springfield for dose fat cats.
Truth is not an affirmative defense it is an absolute defense.
keep it up Blago you'll get a book deal worth some big coin eventually, and maybe you can pay some of your bills.
Thanks Blago... never knew cheating on your spouse was a crime!
How in the hell would he know what goes on in Springfield? He's only been down there 15 times since he was first elected and ten of those times were to cut ribbons!
Oh, but he did have the driveway dug up in the Governor's mansion in order to install a new heated driveway, even though he knew he wasn't going to be living there.
Fucking jagoff.

Actually, it is!
Pick up a law book, lad.
ANY sexual relations, outside of marriage, is illegal.
Who is going to enforce gettin a little? Not me.
Blago's Part 2 on HANNITY is tonight.
I love it!
Blago needs to get his scorched earth plan moving a full speed.

I seem to recall some talk a while back (From some State Troopers, no less) about a close female friend of Rods in Springfield getting knocked up and quickly being shuffled off to live in Florida with her little bundle-O-joy.
Any news about that or comments from Rod regarding that?
How can you burn a bridge when someone threw you under a bus?
We've all seen Illinois politicians get indicted, tried, convicted, and THEN removed from office. With Blago, they arrested him without and indictment and removed him from office before his criminal trial.
Let him throw as much shit in the game as he likes. They deserve each other.
John Kass column today:
Blago chatted about Mayor Richard Daley and airport contracts, about a legislator's sex life and a politician driving a nice Jaguar. He dished about politicians earning fortunes by reducing taxes for large real estate interests and about Daley machine hacks in the legislature double-dipping with fat city jobs.
Shortly after the "Don Wade & Roma" show, Blagojevich's former top fundraiser, Christopher Kelly, an O'Hare contractor, plead not guilty to federal charges that he paid kickbacks for contract work at the airport. When Blago was charged in early December, his top aide, John Harris, who once worked for Daley handling airport deals, was also charged. Harris must be talking. Kelly will crack.
"Now he [Kelly] probably has a lot of things he can say about operations at the airport," Blago told Don and Roma. "And I'm sure that federal prosecutors are interested to see how contracts are issued at O'Hare. And so some of those insights may have more to do with Mayor Daley than they have to do with me."
Get ‘er done Fitz!!!
Blago is a sore loser.It's probably true that most everyone in Illinois, and Chicago Politics, are as corrupt, as he was.
Problem is You Got Caught!
Telling on everyone else, does not make you less guilty.
You were 21 going into this.
Now Shut Up, or Take It Like the Rat We all think you are, and tell on everyone.
Imagine the poor G-Men and AUSA's that'll have to talk to him when the ball starts rolling again...because he's gonna talk and talk and talk.....is this the message he's sending off to people he could hurt by going around the country, or is the "All Rod Show, All The Time?"
anybody think this guy isn't going to take some people with him are kidding themselves
Isnt life a bitch. Blago may turn out to be the one who saves Illinois from the real puppet master, SHORTSHANKS. Keep going Rod, if you would have just went away quietly you would have been destroyed already. Fight Blago its all you can do now. Here is the lesson children, the more you are in the know the harder it is for the powers that be to fuck with you when they are done with you.
GO BLAGO GO!!
He is not going down alone..What a Rat!!!!
If ANYTHING he says even comes CLOSE to ANYBODY in Chicago, the Department of Justice will kill the investigation!
He's a moron. The more he talks, the worse he sounds. If he wants to 'spill the beans' then he should give out names, details, etc instead of this crap about "some politicians are whores, etc."
Okay, then, am I the only one who heard stories about Rod's own infidelities? Why on earth would he want to open this pandora's box?

Question is, why is he GIVING IT AWAY for free?
Why not save the info to trade when the criminal trial starts?

Dear Anonymous,
I'm not involved with government and politics. :)
I'm independent and don't support either major party. :)
I'm not your buddy! :) No, he doesn't have stories to tell about me, because even when he was my Congressman, I didn't support him. :)

My conscience can't take it anymore.
I want to surrender to the authorities on over 2,000 counts of fornication and 35 counts of adultery.
I'll be around Division and State tomorrow night wearing a red carnation in my lapel.
I must be brought to justice and punished by a buxom blonde with a riding crop.

there is a U.C.R. code for adultery listed in the book, although I've never seen a case report generated for it.
Sing Blago Sing!!!
Hopefully he has stuff on Daley so he can go down to

The Fetish Fantasy Riding Crop works for me. It is another staple in the kinky toolkit, the riding crop is the toy that shows them who's in charge. Authority and grace are the messages sent when you wield this 2-ft. crop, it makes a great gift for the authority figure in your life

Uh oh, I am going to jail and then to hell. It sure was fun though. Especially that 36yo married woman from England who lived on my beat. Hot damn! But I went to confession for that one. Is it still a sin of I went to confession but still enjoy the memory of the sin?
He is saying all of this to try and get a book deal or movie deal before he gets convicted. He can keep the $ then.
Blago's a moron. His father-in-law told him not to conduct that kind of business by phone or email. D'oh!

I was inquiring about the buxom blonde.......
If I were Jimmy DeLeo I would be worried.

Hey listen don't disparage your average thief by lumping them in with Blago and Daley...
Blago better start having Patty start the car in the morning or maybe he will be invited to a restaurant by an old friend and never arrive.
Blago is making the guys behind the guys a bit nervous.
