Blagojevich — in long, sometimes rambling address to Illinois legislature — says Sebelius, among others, should also be impeached
Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich's speech at his impeachment trial has been all over the news today.One line, however, really perked up ears here in the newsroom.In the middle of what can only be described as a long, rambling defense of all he's accomplished in office, he said that if he's impeached the governors of Wisconsin and Kansas, U.S. Senators Ted Kennedy and John McCain and others must also be impeached.Sebelius? Seems like he's trying to mention other big names who did some of the same things he did. In this case, he's talking about importing prescription drugs from Canada.No word yet on what the governor's office thinks about that.

With Blago's impeccable character - who can argue? Or, is that impeachable? …. Never mind.

I think it is further proof about how people with mental illnesses can slip through the cracks of the system. You always here these sad stories. None sadder than falling all the way into politics.

Saw the footage of him coming out of his house and was flanked by ………. mob goons? Had to be a security detail, but sure looked like Vinnie Bagodonuts, Little Petey, and Medium Petey walking him to the car.

The classic defense. “I didn't do anything. And besides, they did it too.”
