Are you kidding me?!

As God as my witness I cannot believe that Blagojevich had the stones to appoint someone to fill Obama's Senate seat. It is almost comical. Just when the side splitting jocularity of the situation was about to be too much U.S. Rep. Bobby Rush stands up and plays the race card. When I say plays the race card I mean he slammed it down on the table like a 20lb brick.

Since when do things like your last name, Kennedy, or your race have anything to do with how well you can perform a job? I realize that this who gives a rats ass about qualifications has been going on for a long time in the private sector with the affirmative action program, but now it is in the media spotlight. The bottom line is the people of Illinois need to vote who replaces Obama!

Another thing that I find knee slapping funny is the fact that the Dems are going to bitch to high heaven about this and they could have stopped it. When Blago first was arrested he said that he would support the idea of a special election. Well guess what the Dems sat on their hands like they were vibrators from their wives night stand drawer. They did not think for a second that the Illinois Governor with the scarlet letter would ever appoint anyone. Seriously, could they have been more wrong?

They thought the special election would be a gamble with Illinois politics being called into question. Should I say Democratic Illinois politics being called into question, so they banked on the idea that Blago would be their lap dog and do nothing but lick himself. Guess what he didn't sit back like a well behaved Golden Retriever he pissed on their pant leg and appointed someone. I know enough with the dog analogies.

With all of that being said the only true solution to this problem is to hold a special election in Illinois. A special election to fill Obama's Senate seat. If you want to see this happen go to http://www.wewantavote.org/ and sign the petition.
