Things I friggin' hate : Stupidly corrupt Democrats

If you have been hiding under a rock today, you have not heard then of how fantastically the Governor of Illinois, Rod Blagojevish, was arrested today on charges that he was trying to sell the US Senate seat vacated by President-Elect Barack Obama.

Yeah. The guy gets caught trying to sell the United States Senate seat vacated by the President-Elect of the United State. You know, because this is just an obscure little state that's under the radar AFTER HAVING ONE OF IT'S SENATORS BECOME THE FIRST BLACK MAN ELECTED PreSIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES!

Not only that, the guy has been under investigation for ages by the same U. S. Attorney that took out Scooter Libby. You read that right : The dimwit has the nerve to doubt the prosecutorial abilities of Patrick Fitzgerald.

I just love the way Jazz Shaw of The Moderate Voice put it :

"Blagojevich’s Senate Selection Process Investigated"

Really? You’re investigating his selection process? Given the details leaking out already, isn’t that somewhat akin to checking out Jeffrey Dahmer’s kitchen for questionable cooking techniques?

And this is why I friggin' hate stupidly corrupt Democrats. When it comes to corruption, Republicans seem to have that pat down : "This scrumptious yellow cake is radioactive and not a bakery treat. Let's invade Iraq!"

QUOTES

The most significant element of the coverage that has so rankled the Clinton campaign may be one that cannot responsibly be omitted: her recent win-loss record in nominating contests.

“My role model and mentor at The A.P. was Walter Mears, who recently retired, and he used to say that who wins is part of the story,” said Mike Glover, an Associated Press reporter, as he flew on Mrs. Clinton’s plane on Thursday from Hanging Rock, Ohio, to Houston. “We’re covering a candidate who’s lost 11 straight primaries. They’re covering a candidate who has won 11 straight primaries.”
