Blagojevich Claims Federal Gov't. Persecution

[davea0511]

The problem is that impeachment and scrutiny process are viewed as "being dragged through the mud", when in fact they should be viewed as a "muddiness test". Blagojevich should be changing his story from "I shouldn't have been persecuted" to "I was privileged to be proven guiltless for the crimes the public found egregious, while my opponents have not been proven guiltless of such". In fact, I recommend every politician be "courage certified". google "courage certified" for more info.

Don't believe everything you hear on CNN, MSNBC. They couldn't convict because it was a classic smear campaign againt Blagojevich, with nothing to back it up. I applaud Blago's courage because I know he has the goods on those lowlife bastards and just doesn't want to meet with an "accident"

scukm bag should commit the

hairy carrie... so scam bamma sees how to do the right thing...

[clouser67]

This idiot thanks the members of the jury for what they came up with. Morons who aren't paying attention might think that more than one of those jurors didn't decide he was guilty.

[Y0uEnj0yMyself]

well said Balgo, love ya. I knew you were innocent the entire time.

[JoeRyMi]

When I think of crimes, I think of victims. At the end of the day, who was the victim here? Who's life was altered in such a way to warrant a multi-million dollar prosecution. There is no question he needed to be booted from office...but how far is this going to go?

[clouser67]

@JoeRyMi The vicitms have been the resident tax payers of the state of illinios. They had a right to a legitmate electoral process whereby they could select an ethical, moral and just individual with whom they could vest the powers of governor of the state.

[clouser67]

@JoeRyMi The resident tax payers of Illinios got an unethical, immoral unjust self-serving moron who didn't give a damn about anything other than advancing himself to the Whitehouse. And the excuse for the bad behavior was, Oh, well, this is Chicago/Cook County politics; this is normal.

[JoeRyMi]

@clouser67 And now the tax paying residents get to pay for a multi-million dollar prosecution. There is no question he needed to be removed from office, but I am yet to see a victim in these charges.

I think he sold Obamas seat... but used the right words like drug dealers. They knew, but the jury has something called "beyond a reasonable doubt". So he's a good liar, you can tell he's a liar. Easy.. he's mad he got caught.

[JoeyFudd]

He lies like a "rug."

[gruelin1]

How could the Feds be so lame? What the heck happened?

[6663000]

They declared a mistrial.... lets see what happens when they re-try the other 23 !

[jokerbookshop]

[cheddyrod]

@jokerbookshop Because the jury did not find him guilty.

[crazyclownn]

[xxxWarriorGoddessxxx]

Whatever, he's still our clown ass former governor!

[xIndividual11]

[KiLLAdetox]
