Yes. wow. I kept thinking this would somehow link to an Onion article, but it didn't, and it's not April 1st either. Chicago area politics really never changes.

So what's wrong with it? Isn't that what capitalism is about?

His defense should be "No, not his senate in the Senate, I was trying to sell the Senator's chair... at his old desk. It's a really fucking nice ass seat. Its swivels and all kinds of shit."

Rumor is that Rahm Emmanuel ratted him out. I hope that's true.

I'm sure some high echelon nutjobs will be able to imagine a Palestinian martyr out of Blagojevich to make Rahm fit in to all the Zionist conspiracy crap.
