If he serves his full term, he will be released in 2025. <br />
<br />
By then, one of Mayor Daley's kids will be in charge, Sarah Palin will be facing off Hillary Clinton for the White House, and the Democrats will blame George W. Bush for whatever is the trouble of the moment. Rush Limbuagh will point fingers with Jon Stewart, because both will have lost their voice, and the Simpsons TV Show will be tying up another great season.<div class="blogger-post-footer">Rod Blagojevich meet Barack Obama.

<br />
"Do I get to sing "Jailhouse Rock? Can I keep my Elvis Presley hair?" <br />
<br />
The judge, amused, stood up, and dueted the song with him. The prosecutors were not amused, feeling this only gave them a bad name. <br />
<br />
And somewhere, Michael Madigan is humming the same tune, grateful he is nowhere near a jail. <br />
<br />
Meanwhile, Illinois Governor Pat Quinn is delighted, knowing he really never would have gotten this job any other way.<div class="blogger-post-footer">Rod Blagojevich meet Barack Obama.

MACBETH <br />
She should have died hereafter;<br />
There would have been a time for such a word.<br />
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,<br />
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day<br />
To the last syllable of recorded time,<br />
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools<br />
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!<br />
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player<br />
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage<br />
And then is heard no more: it is a tale<br />
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,<br />
Signifying nothing.<br />

Naturally, it is known that it is ethical, though which system it plays by is not clear. <br />
<br />
With the Madigan Dynasty beginning, the Daley Dynasty ending, the string of corrupt or screwed up governors, a sitting United States president who barely worked in the Senate before campaigning full-time, a former Chief of Staff who quit midway into the admistration to begin his own non-corrupt mayoral bid, Reverend Jesse Jackson and Son and their mistresses, and a essentially bankrupt state --<br />
<br />
Wait? Did I imply a state with bad ethics? <br />
<br />
No, we, the City of Big Shoulders, want to lead the State of Illinois to look more like Detroit, MI or New York, NY with a dash of New Orleans, LA.<div class="blogger-post-footer">Rod Blagojevich meet Barack Obama.

No one believes Barack Obama is tainted with Chicago corruption, naturally, having only served briefly before his White House campaign began, but most everyone realizes we bribe, lie, steal to get things done. It isn't just the unions, priests, corporations, and paperboys who are suspect. Everyone. Blago is just the voice of a corrupt generation. Dare we call him guilty? Well, yeah, if that's the verdict.<br />

Good thing is not "the Giannoulias seat." And definitely not Hillary's seat. <em>No one</em> wants to see that.<br />

Rod, ever the wise brother, saw his planet soon being recalled by the Astro Naming Committee. Something about brake pedals not working, and concerns whether or not Armando Galarraga's game was properly named 'perfect'. (Baseball was very popular in the DC).<br />
<br />
Noting the trouble Toyota had recently been in, Rod left for Earth and assumed a human physical body. However, limited into his access of information, thanks to the many light years difference in distance, all Rod saw were images dating back to the 1950s. <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Elv1s-30-Hits-Elvis-Presley/dp/B00006AG5N?ie=UTF8&tag=senate-20&link_code=btl&camp=213689&creative=392969" target="_blank">Elvis Presely</a><img alt="" border="0" height="1" src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=senate-20&l=btl&camp=213689&creative=392969&o=1&a=B00006AG5N" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; margin: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px !important; padding-left: 0px !important; padding-right: 0px !important; padding-top: 0px !important;" width="1" /> was the most famous, the most popular human, and was singing "<a href="http://www.amazon.com/All-Shook-Up/dp/B001QPZLIE?ie=UTF8&tag=senate-20&link_code=btl&camp=213689&creative=392969" target="_blank">I'm All Shook Up</a><img alt="" border="0" height="1" src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=senate-20&l=btl&camp=213689&creative=392969&o=1&a=B001QPZLIE" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; margin: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px !important; padding-left: 0px !important; padding-right: 0px !important; padding-top: 0px !important;" width="1" />." Rod thought this Elvis guy was the quintessential human. Hence, the hair. </div><br />
Meanwhile, poor Robert was lonely back on their home moon. The Democraticus Corruptus leadership, a brotherhood (even the women were referred to as brothers there, being a genderless society), only worked with relatives. Rod was gone, leaving Robert brotherless, and as they say in his world, "Screwed since you ain't a Daley." <br />
<br />
Robert, seeing that Rod had left for the world of "All Shook Up," decided too to come down. The warrring party against Democraticus Corruptus, the usually impotent Republicus Pieceacrappus, calls this a "the Blagojevichian Shakedown." People on Earth would pay the Blago Brothers money to stop. Even their messiah, the Barack Obama, left the state, unwilling to hear their tune. <br />

Coward convict Christopher Kelly looked at his days gambling and dancing feloniously with Rod Blagovich and self-euthanized. <blockquote>Kelly, a roofing contractor from Chicago's southern suburbs, had already pleaded guilty to $1.3 million in tax fraud and swindling two airlines in connection with $8.5 million in contracts for work on their hangars at O'Hare International Airport. He had been sentenced to three years on the tax charge and had signed a plea agreement under which he was to be sentenced to five years in the O'Hare contracts case. Those were to be served consecutively. source: <a href="http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap/article/ALeqM5izc3e_YXnEjkxe3MtrTAOVHGIuugD9AND31O0">Washington Post</a></blockquote>A loser pretending to have class, all he ended up doing is showing himself to be a quitter.

Immediately, this brought to mind Hillary Clinton. She is an expert carpetbagger, but already has take a position, thanks to Kelly Temporary Services' secretary division. There was some confusion in the matter, as she is Secretary of State. Jesse White thought she wanted his job, and offered her a </span><a href="http://prawojazdy-polishfordrivinglicence.blogspot.com/"><span style="font-family:courier new;">driver's licence</span></a><span style="font-family:courier new;"> to lay off.

Burris has declared he has no intention of returning the seat.<br /><br />Not unexpectedly, MSNBC is delighted to report that Illinois Democrats still believe he might be innocent. They said that about Rod Blagovich too, and so all results are favorable.

Rod Blagojevich is expected to give Barack Obama's vacated Senate seat to former state attorney general Roland Burris. With the present economy, and Illinois gambling revenue's down, the price appears to be free.<br /><br />Mr. Burris is not expected to actually get the seat. All 50 sitting Democratic senators signed a letter by Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada warned Blagojevich after his Dec. 9 arrest that Senate Democrats would not seat anyone the governor named to the seat.<br /><br />They, instead, will make Burris stand, or sit on the floor. Burris was warned that the floor is dirty. Mops, he was reminded, were all used up during George Ryan's era, and are either broken or stained red.<br /><br />Good wooden chairs are being used, said Reid, to print money in a recycling/laundry effort. Green initiatives are import to Democrats, so they are printing as much green as possible.<br /><br />Republicans are overjoyed since this makes their time on the couch look good.</span></div><div align="center"><br /><iframe style="BORDER-RIGHT: medium none; BORDER-TOP: medium none; BORDER-LEFT: medium none; BORDER-BOTTOM: medium none" border="0" marginwidth="0" src="http://rcm.amazon.com/e/cm?t=generic-20&o=1&p=26&l=ur1&category=green&banner=1X4JYY661XMKT945N602&f=ifr" frameborder="0" width="468" scrolling="no" height="60"></iframe></div><div class="blogger-post-footer">Rod Blagojevich meet Barack Obama.
