Governor Blagojevich Appears on Bonnie Hunt, Part One Sept.11, 2009

Why didn't Obama protect his constituents? Why didn't he blow the whistle on Blago? Don't even try to tell me that he was unaware of the wrongdoing. I am not near as smart as Obama and I knew what Blago was before his reelection. When Blago ran for reelection where were the voices of dissent? The politicians have so much contempt for the citizens. They think that we are stupid. They think that they can tell us anything and we will believe it. They may be right.

Rod wnated to stop business with the Bank of America... and you CAN'T do that. Big banks are too powerful and ask the Kennedys if that is the truth. John. F. got a bullet for trying stop business with the Federal Reserve. Lucky Rod, he only lost a job. God bless you, Rod. You trying to do the right thing, which was to try to give the seat to somebody who would help the workers and not the banks.

@SonsOfGod Wow... someone who actually understands how the system works, it's good to know that you're out there

Look at all the green thumbs on the comments here :-)!! I really can't say anything that hasn't been said here already. Go Bonnie! When I watched this episode, it got to one point where I just wanted this ugly little man to get out of Bonnie's face, but she gave it back to him and then some. She brought out the truth, and I truly hope and the end of the day she felt very, very proud of herself.

Fascinated by a lowlife scumbag like blago, you've got to be kidding! If he is convicted of willfully betraying the public trust through his office for personal gain then he should be hung by the neck until dead. At the least he should receive hard labor for the rest of his natural life being forced as a laborer to build roads, maintain public parks, clean sewers and any other hard or foul public service job. Somebody had better put this pile of feces on trial soon.

This guy is such a low-life jerk. I'm so sick of politicians treating the state of Illlinois, the city of Chicago and the county of Cook as their own personal ATMs.

As for Rod, I'm sure he thought this was going to be an easy interview and finally someone nails him. Go Bonnie!!

And now, if we could just get him to go away (preferably to a federal prison). Please take Stroger and Daley with you.

I have seen Blago in several interviews on supposedly "hard hitting" news shows where he was allowed to B.S. his way through. It takes someone like Bonnie to call him out and actually make him stutter. Go Bonnie Hunt!!!

[nunciaok]

I love Bonnie, she's smart, funny and courageous. This is the type of interview that nobody has the guts to do anymore. Every time Blagojevich is interviewed he just buries himself deeper and deeper. It is clear from his reaction that he did not see this one coming. The end of this segment says it all as he stammers in response to her question about his colleagues stepping up to his defense.

As an Illinois Democrat who has volunteered and donated to numerous Democratic campaigns in the Land of Lincoln, I would be the first to pick up a stone and throw it at this man. He is a horrific excuse for a human being that doesn't deserve to live.

kinda scary actually was the ending of my comment. not just kinda. BLAGO IS SCARY and I do not mean just his hair LOLOLOL! and notice how he trys to get on her good side in the beginning by sucking up to her. SHE would have none of it YAY Bonnie!!

[SueBeaWho]

Hi all, Bonnie is the BEST! I am going to repeat something I said on her site, but this site tplaflan, gives the whole segment. Here i go:

Blago is a classic sociopath.He sees nothing wrong in what HE does, but feels everyone else is against him. Bonnie held her own against this goofball (and made him squirm). He is basically the type of person that has no conscious. He does what he needs to do to make himself top dog and "F" everyone else. Kinda

[pufive]

You GO Bonnie. Blago has been on every major network talk show...every news channel talk show and it took YOU to ask the true hard hitting questions. Gotta love it!!

[jfgallay]

I love how she got him to stutter...that's when you know he is full of crap!

[hhhhdd4]

What a despicable piece of human slime.

[frankie5fingers]

What makes this thief any different then Chicago's most notorious, Al Capone?!! "Thou does protest too much!"
