🜲 PoLiX Posted December 10, 2008 Report Posted December 10, 2008 http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/28139155 CHICAGO - Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich embarked on a "corruption crime spree" and tried to benefit from his ability to appoint President-elect Barack Obama's replacement in the U.S. Senate, federal officials said Tuesday. At a news conference in Chicago on Tuesday, U.S. Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald called it a sad day for the citizens of Illinois and alleged that the governor tried to "auction off" the Senate seat "to the highest bidder." He said the alleged behavior "would make (Abe) Lincoln roll over in his grave." All I can say is wow... how stupid was this guy.

FMBI Posted December 10, 2008 Report Posted December 10, 2008 Most people were just predicting he'd hand it over to Jackson Jr. Oh well, those midwestern politicians are pretty stupid. After all, until McCain left Michigan, one of the top reasons it was a swing state was because of another corruption scandal. They just don't learn. I FUCKING HATE THIS VERSION OF THE FORUMS. IF YOU FUCKING HATE THIS VERSION OF THE FORUMS, PASS THIS SIGNATURE ON TO SIX PEOPLE IN THE NEXT 5 MINUTES OR A FAT HAIRY AXE-MURDERER (this man identifies himself as "rootbear") WILL COME TO YOUR HOUSE AND EAT YOUR CHILDREN. AND YOU.
Stibbymicto Posted December 11, 2008 Report Posted December 11, 2008 (edited) Did you know that out the past 7 governers of illinois.5 have been to prison and 3 are still in prison.

FMBI Posted December 12, 2008 Report Posted December 12, 2008 (edited) No, 5-3=2. 2 out, 3 in. However, the numbers are wrong in the first place, it seems: to get that result, you'd have to count both Blago (4) and the last guy listed at that link (5), and change the phrasing somewhat - they haven't "been to prison" necessarily, just gotten in trouble with the law.

Stibbymicto Posted December 12, 2008 Report Posted December 12, 2008 Stibby, 5 + 3 = 8.Lol. -I quit playing Continuum to continue to work on my studies in I.B. I'll probably be back a little from time on the account Fx but it isn't set in stone yet.-
