Illinois Governor

[GTO Man]

Illinois governor in federal custody on corruption charges

Feds say wiretaps caught Blagojevich trying to sell or trade Obama’s seat

Official says conduct would make “Lincoln roll over in his grave”

This conduct seems to be typical of Illinois politicians in the Governor’s office.

Never trust anything or anyone to come out of the Illinois Political Machine.

All politicians are corrupt. This moron just got caught. As long as government remains by the rich for the rich actions like this will continue to happen. I have met very few people who have a lot of money that honestly respect the law or aren’t always trying to find a way to screw somebody out of money. And it takes money to run for office, so while in office it becomes a constant attempt to get more money for yourself and your friends, who in turn help you. They try to paint as a “helping the citizens” action, but they never pass a law or bill without thinking “how can I better my financials with this?”

Why doesn’t he get the hint and resign? Is he mentally ill?

[GTO Man]

Sounds like this very strange man is going to resign tomorrow.
