Illinois Prosecutor Closing Argument in Impeachment Tribunal for Gov. Blagojevich

[tthomaselli2]

Did anybody step in to support Blagojevich during this tribunal?

[zrsgallygirl]

This is nothing new for congress folks, this type of thing has been going on for decades, this is just the poor slob that got caught. Thats why he feels he didn't do anything wrong. "Getting caught" is happening more and more because of new technologies. Watch-dog groups are becoming the new front line soldiers in the on going war between right and wrong. My fav is the ACLU. Find one you can support and agree with and voluteer some gametime to them. Because the worse thing you can do is nothing

[soggytreats9]

Fuck Serbs dude period

[soggytreats9]

Dude fuck Serbs simple

[Dar100g]

What ever happened to freedom of speech? We all talk a big game but that does not mean we follow through. They should at least have waited untill he actually did something.

[muziclyrics]

Well, I guess he deserved what he got..

[SamHj08]

fagojevich to jail

[TheNextScientist]

How do people like these get in to office. ...

[WhiteBull]

We vote them in! Sad huh...

[TheNextScientist]

or maybe our hands had nothing to do with it lol

Ty for reply

[zutroy1]

it's Illinois ... this is normal

[TheNextScientist]

lol funny

[timm9]

Its clear Dems. have no morals or vaules.

[tropicalanimal]

It could be argued that morals and values are not party specific. Dems and Repubs both have moral and immoral people within the party. Morals are not attached to political views. The interesting thing is that there are both dems and republicans took part in impeaching him.

[blago2016]

Oh, look who's talking! If you are saying that everyone who belongs to that specific political party has no morals or values, you have none yourself truthfully!

[strawhataddison]

you in trouble blago.

you gonna get butt-fucked in jail.

[blago2016]

What a vile, nasty thing to wish upon someone strawhataddison! Shame on you for making a comment like that.

[strawhataddison]

hey now, i dont wish it on him. im just sayin, its gonna happen.... he should probly prepare himself. pyschologically and physically.

[blago2016]

:(:(:(

[sidstille]

what a snoozer!

He was spot on fucker! golden goose. that guy just sped up the process.. instead of waiting for bribes.. he offered to take them free. it's not unconstitutional to get paid for electing someone else. Congress can't get any worse. It's fucked up enough. who cares who they put in?

[mhotl]

I really hope your not implying that the way to fix congress is by selling out the seats to the highest bidder. Because that would make you a complete ASS!

[SirosTV]

Somebody tell Blago you only meet in person and in a pool.

[celloprofundo]

Wasn' t this guy on the Brady Bunch? I just feel sorry for his children, "Hey, how's yer dad?" I think we would ALL get in trouble with SOMEONE if the F.B.I. taped and made public our conversations. But Blago is "Super-Weasel".

[lancechamplain]

See ya, would'nt wanna be ya!

[bertly71]

Say goodbye, Rod. Obama campaigned for this guy, twice.

[AntiSCO]

I guess you could call it "caught", I prefer to think of it as him being thrown under the bus. Yes, he was crooked but so were his associates. As soon as he drew attention to himself he was thrown to the wolves. I say have a wolf feast with 2/3 of the Continental Congress, that's just for starters.

Sheer corruption has only been the bigger half of the problem, indifference the more crucial half. Today was a very positive step, good riddance to Blagojevich.

[sidstille]

yes. Congress needs to be thrown in jail. everyone of them for wasteful spending. They are fucking this country over and they need to be kicked out and not let back in.

Put new people in. PLEASE. someone do something.

[soggytreats9]

But I dont understand why he would choose such an important time for his state and the nation to do such sleez y deals. Gosh those fuckin Serbs are always fuckin wierd

[blago2016]

and I guess you're always a f*cking hoser.

[Scitech101]

Let today be a happy moment for the people of Illinois. On this day, justice was delt to a man who sought to corrupt the Democratic System we cherish. A man who saw his powers for nothing more than monetary gain.

[wtfcayton]

my state needs a new governer :(

[vandal9202]

He's not the only douchebag politician sitting up there. He's just the one that got caught.

[snownet]

Guilty!

[timhavens]

Blagojevich sucha smug sob. Glad they bumped his @ss. Gov't at any level needs NO ONE who spoke the way this man did. Ex. Gov B. your conversations spoke for themselves. The people aren't idiots! And you attempted to talk down to everyone as if we all just misunderstood your intentions.

[GWOZ0Z0]

There's nothing unique about the Governer amongst his peers. This is jus his time.

[quest8899]

Blago should have remained as governor, he didnt do anything illegal and he never raised taxes.

[mattyk94]

he didn't do anything illegal?

is trying to sell the united states senate seat not illegal enough?

[lTHRICEl]

But he is just one of many corrupt politicians we have in our government.

And that goes for both parties. The money and greed has got the best of them.

[lTHRICEl]

Blowmaditch needs to give up and let get its over with, now he can only afford 5 mansions instead of 13.

[GhostOfThe92503]

Aside from waking up to my beautiful girlfriend.

This was the highlight of my morning.

[kendall7364]

aw...

[biggerflexible]

I'm sorry this argument is a FAIL. Call me crazy but it sounds like Blago was doing what ALL politicians do.

[ERH8000]
