I can get it for you Wholesale
Well, he’s finally done it! The dishonorable Governor of the State of Illinois Rod Balgojevich has committed a deed that would make Lincoln, along with a lot of current Chicago voters, roll in their respective graves! He attempted to egregiously sell President Elect Barack Obama’s vacated Senate seat to the highest bidder in a pay for play scheme that finally brought the FBI and US Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald down on his head. The Land of Lincoln will soon own the dubious distinction of having two recent Governors in the slammer for malfeasance and corruption. With this kind of record, they may as well move the Governors office from Springfield to Joliet. That way the next miscreant can simply walk from the Statehouse to the prison.
What a pity that the state now known for Honest Abe will be forced to live with the deeds of Rotten Rod stinking up the place. I understand that Al Capone’s ghost was called up by a medium in a recent séance and his comment on the Blagojevich arrest was: “Its about friggin time! Dis guy was givin us gangsters a bad name!” Jeeze! Ain’t nutin sacred!” Chicago politics has a well earned reputation for shady deals, but this takes the cake. I hear that the Chitown Pols distanced themselves from Blago so swiftly that the resulting vacum of the usual copious amount of hot air, created a formitable inrush of cold air from Chicago all the way down to Baton Rouge where they are expecting 4 inches of new snow today.
When asked by the FBI what he thought he was doing, Blagojevich asked what he had done wrong. He offered to throw in a free set of ginzu knives with the Obama Seat if either of the agents were interested. The FBI agents looked at the Senate seat and then at Patrick Fitzgerald. Fitzgerald pointed to the Governor’s chair and said” We’ll take this one.
That’s Rotten Roddy! His prices are insane!
So life goes on in these here United States where we’ve got the best politicians money can buy.
