Gov. Blagojevich, You Don’t Have To Go Home, But You Can’t Stay Here

I honestly do not understand what Rod Blagojevich thought he would achieve, running around New York, from talk show to talk show, including The View, when he couldn’t even be bothered to show up at his own impeachment trial. He can answer Larry King’s questions, but not ours? Is Blagojevich’s purpose to make himself and Illinois a laughingstock to the rest of the country? Perhaps he is looking for sympathy from bamboozled homemaker set. I say bamboozled, because only a sucker would fall for Blagojevich’s pack of lies.

What’s funny is somehow he suckered Geraldo Rivera into believing his BS. Geraldo, don’t you even bother to fact check, before you go around repeating Blagojevich’s lies? Now he AND Geraldo claim he cannot get a fair trial, he continues to lie about Illinois’ impeachment proceedings, as if no one in the media is going to point out, that Governor Blagojevich will indeed be impeached according to Illinois law.

This is no horse-thief trial Gov, these are proceedings to decide if you are fit to run the state. It’s pretty obvious, you are not. For God’s sake, you were not even IN the state, which you claim to be able to govern.

A lot of people in Illinois want to know if it is us, the Illinois taxpayers, who paid for Blagojevich, his staffers and security to live it up, like some sort of celebrity plugging a movie, in order to spread ridiculous lies in the State of New York, where they haven’t a clue as to how things work here in Illinois?

While Governor Blagojevich claims he’s looking out for the best interest of Illinois residents, he continues to waste the state legislature’s time, and hurt our state in the process. Apparently seven percent of Illinoisans want to keep our governor, while the rest of us just want him to resign. He claims we are setting a dangerous precedent by impeaching him, then why doesn’t he resign and show the people of Illinois that he has our best interest at heart, instead of backing us into a corner, forcing our legislature to remove him.

Governor Blagojevich, you are a selfish and insane man; you have put your needs above the people of this state. Any sympathy you might have gained, has been lost and has now turned to anger, by your refusal to step aside.
