Bleep them!

So, it's time to take a quick moment to speak out against Blagojevich. Is it just me, or is this guy the epitome of the corrupt duschbag scumbucket club? Caught on tape trying to sell Obama's soon-to-be-vacated Senate seat to the highest bidder, and likely the position left by Rahm Manuel, I'm left to ask - does he get a trial; do we waste taxpayer dollars on this bleeping bastard, or do we just skip the process when the evidence is so obvious?

Rod is a tool.

Another case of misleadership in this troubled representative democracy steeped in centuries of nepotism. With the exception of known national families like the Kennedys or the Bushes, it seems at the state level, this is more easily pulled off. Check your local structure of misleaders for similar names and cross-reference that against the family trees going back a few generations, and you'll see this borne out over and over again.

Let's hope the new administration can move away from this. There are a few more Illinoisians and Chicagoans, Clintonians and other folks being appointed to his cabinet than I would hope to see, but it appears he's taking a what's-best-for-the-country stance on these appointments.
