This surprises who exactly?
An official says Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich has been arrested in Chicago on corruption charges stemming from the selection of the successor to President-elect Barack Obama’s U.S. Senate seat.
U.S. Attorney’s office spokesman Randall Samborn says both Blagojevich and his chief of staff John Harris were arrested Tuesday. Authorities aren’t yet releasing details about those charges. However, a federal law enforcement official tells The Associated Press the governor is accused of corruption charges. The official says the charges stem from the selection process of a successor to Obama.
That – along with all the past incidents MLG is relating to me via text message – just makes me giggle like a little girl.
Go on, Rod, ask Daddy for a pardon.
*Prophetic enough to rate its own tag, I think.
I really, really, want to believe he’s been entrapped (who cares!) by some GOP operative. I really wanna believe the in the rogue elephant just one more time.
Took a big swingin’ pair to rustle up a Fed charge in Obama’s back yard.
Politics is still the best blood sport around!

Hopefully they were tapping Dailey’s phone up in Chi-town, too. That could prove to be even more entertaining…

What surprises me less is that the MSM has been falling all over itself to ASSURE the public that Oboyma is NOT UNDER ANY SUSPICION FOR ANY WRONGDOING WHATSOEVER.
Heh, right.
