Blago: It's Not Like I Know The Constitution Backwards And Forwards

[loboismael21]

Innocent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Unknown0rigin]

He stood right outside the window company, with the workers, on TV and said he was going to have the state do no more business with Bank Of America.

THE NEXT DAY the assasination of Rod Blagojevich began. Interesting that not a single news network, not a single analyist, not even one pundit connected these dots??

[Unknown0rigin]

Want to know what ~I~ find incredible?

Why is it no one, even Rod Blagojevich, has explored the fact that the taped conversations were leaked to the public, and the character assasination began in earnest the day after he called out Bank of America for refusing to approve a loan to keep a small window company from going under? He admonished the bank for refusing the loan even after they received billions bailout money from the public.

[drmadnar]

Blago can never be wrong. Just look at his hair. Can you really argue, with that hair?

[luchamini]

I think from now on if somebody asks him a question he should just say "I'd like to forward that question to my council." and then hold a microphone to his bangs. While holding a microphone to his hair he will continuously make random faces as if he is contemplating serious information and after about a minute he would remove the mic, look at the camera and say "Well there you have it!"

[theserf3]

Im not surprised.

[zidmt]

Here is where American is going wrong, many Americans are so ignorant to basic government rules, let alone the more advanced ones AND politicians know this, it makes it easy for them to pull the wool over the masses eyes. I'm not saying be anti-government, I'm saying get educated.

[jtrubilla]

once you're educated, you'll most likely realize that you must be anti-government.

[WKaliberr]

Bush doesnt know the constitution at all

[aprilmarco]

He douse not know we even have a constitution

[WKaliberr]

Bush actually co-wrote a cartoon called Mis-PushUpek

[maskedphrogg]

@ ~1:05 Blago is reviewing his conversation with Rahm and just about made a Freudian slip.

The discussion centered on their ignorance of Constitutional law and Representative appointment

"I didn't think I had the power, he thought I did ... thought we could find legal weak...(oops!) ways..."

He did, he was about to say publicly they sought "legal weaknesses" to enable Blago to appoint his successor.

I'm much more likely to accept the verdict this guy is a scumbag now.

[iknewitalready]

dude just go away

[MooseOfReason]

Rahm Emanuel also said in an interview he wanted all Americans between the ages of 18 and 25 to serve three months of basic training.

That's also against the Constitution, so it's not like Matthews can call Rahm an expert.

[bushputz]

Hey folks -

Maybe, just maybe, it's time to start having Civics classes in school again.

Maybe some of these cretins in office would know right from wrong.

More importantly, John and Jane Public would know enough to call them out when they start acting like asshats...

[manicmonad]

...flame-bait...

[ecwaufisxtreme]

Blago's PUSSY is just as hairy and looks just like his hairdo!

[facelesshorseman]

I thought we had seen the last of this bloody bottle brush.

[dennist3hmenace]

The Constitution is there to LIMIT the power of government, that's why they ignore it.

[MADEDITOR05]

guillltyyyyyyyyy

[phffeir]

Wow. Youre a politician and you expect a LAWYER to know the constitution better than you do???

[Cheshirecatmeow1]

Least he's telling the truth.

[HugeHeroesFan]

Neither did Bush. Lol that's a joke. O:<

[SabuPtolemy]

Don't spare the Rod - beat his ass!

What a disgrace to the Democratic Party. Fuck this POS weasel.

[flowergirl1313]

Rod is an f-ing lawyer and worked for Cook County as a lawyer. I would hope that he knew the Constitution front and back.

[strawman007]

What everybody else has said AND whats with the funky hair cut?

[pokermaster54]

most honest liar of all time. Seemingly paradoxical yet there he is.

[Smartassawhip]

This guy is an absolute moron.. I think he may be even nuttier than Glenn Beck and that is saying something.

[Plutonwolf]

The phrase you are seeking is "Nuttier than squirrel shit".

[whoo689]

How the hell do you find something "literally" incredible?? Is that even possible? Literality is based on using terms that refer to concerte objects or scenarios but don't always specifically mean those things. They connote something else sometimes. Incredible is merely an adjective. Man, we sure are a dumb bunch in this country. Everyone is "literally" using the term "literally" way too much.

[strawman007]

"it"s not like I know what the fuck I'm doing with out a lawyer" roflmao. This is a prime example of whats wrong with this country.

[strawman007]

LOL what a maroon!!

[davomunroe]

He should at least know the constitution forwards.

[MrHelldogger]

This is a class act Scumbag Deluxe, this fuckin guy. Somebody please get a fuckin rope, & some feathers & tar.

[KagarBeardtooth]

Rahm and Blago are disgraces

[upabittoolate]

See? THIS is why IL does better with republican governors. As a radical I can honestly say that I did not vote for that idiot. In fact, Ryan got done dirty.

I'm not expecting someone to know the Constitution ipsissima verba but he needs a working understanding. Fuck Blago.

[MacroTraficante]

god please stop giving this wast of flesh any type of attention

[lights21002003]

if they do not know what the constitution is they should not be a leader of any form bottom line respect usa or get the fck out!!!!

[VeracityMedia]

this man is such a bore at this point. Lets lock him up or have him suicided already.

[flowergirl1313]

you do know that someone involved w/ his case committed suicide yesterday, right? that is harsh.

[Steadno]

blago is a scumbag

[animeownage86]

The government of today wipes their ass with our constitution that goes for the left AND the right. Of course their will be hillbillies and kool-aid drinkers that disagree but they are just part of the problem. Ignorance and/or hatred of the truth are no excuses.

[sharinganclan213]

bureaucracy is the problem.

[Mauhadeeb28]

That is the truth...

[ExoneratedUndead]

yeah and when he swears under oath its the truth then too?

Hes simply throwing anyone and everyone under the proverbial Short Bus, the problem is that he just fell out of that same bus.

[Mauhadeeb28]

agreed

[Aaberg123]

Actually, bureaucracy is a means to keep up the checks and balances in the government.

It might slow the down progress and be fantastically inefficient, but it's that way by intent.

[SabuPtolemy]

The real problem is not bureaucracy - at the root of it all is unadulterated greed and striving for power. Bureaucracy merely aids these things in politics.

[Mauhadeeb28]

Great words...

[Kingery4President]

When a politician takes office; their oath includes defending that Constitution. If you do not know what you ARE SUPPOSED TO DEFEND; get the heck out of office.

[SaveOurSovereignty3]

i bet 90% of politicians have no clue whats in the constitution, just career politicians thats all....

[EmperorAtahualpa]

This dude should not even be on TV anymore but rather in a Siberian prison camp.

[Aaberg123]

Lying through his teeth.

[flowergirl1313]

Man, Blago needs to go somewhere. He keeps embarassing IL and Chicago.

[mpost81]

Don't worry between Blago,Burris and Obama IL and Chicago are thoroughly embarrassed and lack all credibility.

[flowergirl1313]

Nice, try to slip Obama in w/ that bunch. I think you mean King Daley. Pres. Obama and Sen. Durbin are the only 2 pols from IL that I totally trust. I love Jan schakowsky, but her husband is too shady.

[oldtownkid]

Knowing what I know about Blago I'd still vote for him for president if I had to choose between him and your little guy from Texas.

[mpost81]

That's ok I'm confident that's some day you will come out of your Mommy's basement and gain real word experience plus some common sense before you reach legal voting age.

[oldtownkid]

How dare you? You just hurt my feelings...

[TheRamenAvenger]

Maybe he should tuck a copy of it into his hair?

[ceresWar]

lol
