Illinois governor Blagojevich was arrested because of corruption charges. Blagojevich was caught on tape discussing how he will be selling the Senate seat vacated by President elect Obama to the highest bidder. He said if no one brings an acceptable payment for the seat, he will keep it for himself so he can run for presidency in 2016. How can this man think he can get away with committing such crimes? It boggles the mind how someone with so much greed, self delusion and moral turpitude was voted into office and how he holds a very important seat in government. His actions were so brazen, you have to question his sanity.
Blagojevich joins the long line of corrupt politicians in Chicago, 3 governors in the past 35 years, who have been convicted. He has broken the trust of the public and so arrogant about it, he should be held accountable for what he has done. He sounds more like a mob boss than a governor. Let's add this story in the repugnant and revolting file folder, in addition to all the craziness that contributed to the fall of Wall Street.
It's a good night when the Wizards win. Wizards won tonight against the Pistons, the team showed energy, intensity and desire especially the younger players.
