TMink said...: This is really amazing narcissism, wonderfully over the top. It is also setting himself up.

TMink said...: Trump is a piece of work, but he has actually produced things.

bagoh20 said...: I'm sure this will turn out just great. Does he have no one around him with a brain? It's the arrogance of having the biggest hair in the room.; 1/5/10, 10:53 AM
ricpic said...: I hope Blago fights like hell and manages to incriminate the piece of shit in the White House before Zippy's goons jail him.; 1/5/10, 10:53 AM
traditionalguy said...: Blago is adorable. That's why he gets selected to be elected by the Machine bosses who need an attractive man in their pocket. The revelation of the open trading of public benefits for large kickbacks is ugly...unless you are from New jersey where it is an accepted business model. The two party system used to hold down the theft by making the other party always investigate for provable misfeasance as an election issue, which at least restrains the openness of the corruption where there are two viable parties and no third party stalking horses. But Harry Reid and the Democrats have blown all such restraint in the system to hell last Christmas eve. Blago seems like an angel in comparison to the sitting majority Democrat Congress's open bribery season for any extension vote for their new facism in action.The big question is whether we really want to end that corruption or whether we want instead to reject our best candidate to do so who is Sarah Palin. Decisions, decisions.; 1/5/10, 10:56 AM

traditionalguy said...: Also Blago was dethroned for skimming some personal profit from the Machine's right to appointment political hacks to office. Independence action by Blago was rebellion for which he will be punished harshly, or the machine will cease to hold its power. The Moslem world is sweet talked by Barack but the Governor of Illinois has no quarter shown for disobediance to Obama's machine. Let's see what the disobediant Governor of New York gets thrown at him soon.; 1/5/10, 11:12 AM
joated said...: Personally, I think it's time for NBC to turn off the lights, pack it up and lock the doors. Is there anything this network produces that is of value? Even their Sunday night football games had to feature Olbermann. Why?; 1/5/10, 11:19 AM
Dear corrupt left, go F yourselves said...: Only in America. Corrupt politicians have 9 lives.

Go away.; 1/5/10, 1:31 PM

Automatic_Wing said...: Should be pretty awesome. Looking forward to seeing Blago lead a team on one of the Donald's dumbass tasks like trying to sell ice cream sundaes to commuters in front of a train station or whatever.

Must see TV.; 1/5/10, 4:15 PM
vbspurs said...: With that helmet hair, perhaps "Salon Takeover" would've been more apposite.
