You beat me to this post by just a few seconds Steve.
I was on the phone with my wife when she informed me that Rod & his chief of staff were arrested, cuffed, and walked out of the building. The State employees in Springfield are in celebration!
I still think that our president elect is involved in some of these doings but maybe not this one in particular...I just dont know if they can reel him in though.

It never ceases to amaze me how some politicians think they can get away with anything. After reading the above news release, this Blagojevich character has to take the cake for being a "stupid" and corrupt official. Boy oh boy those were some just plain dumb moves that he made in terms of broadcasting his corruption.

Congrats to the people of the Illinois!

This is a good example of Illinois corruption.  Hopefully this will be a start to get rid of the highway tolls that were supposed to have been removed in the 1970's.

Golly, I take it that you fella's might not contribute much money to the Blago legal defense fund if we pass the hat? ;D ;D ;D

I too am amazed at the brazen greed and corruption of these guys.  Unbelievable.

Illinois governors have been something else, haven't they?

What scares me is that this is a good example of what kind of corruption comes from Illinois.  Now we are about to have it in the Whitehouse.

Who knows when they start digging and digging into Rezko stuff and he starts chirping, there may be a trail or two to Washington.

Be careful here. I'm somewhat of a history buff and I can't remember the last time a sitting demigod was unseated and we got someone better to replace him? In my opinion, the fight isn't over!

After all the money they spent on open road tolling? I seriously doubt it.

Wouldn't surprise me if Durbin or one of his cronies introduces a thought to let Blagojevich run Illinois from a prison cell? Wish they would put him in Pontiac Correction Institution, that would be Justice! He already says to hold a special election to determine who will replace O'Bama.
I didn't hear, did Blagojevich step down(like a gentleman) during his court appearance, this afternoon?

It's always nice to see your Boss arrested. As a IL. state employee/resident I couldn't be happier ;D But it's not over and it could cost us all allot of $$$$.

Last election shows not all the state votes for them, just the nine counties around Chicago(states largest metropolitan area).

This seems to be the clearest view here. Arrest is one thing. Conviction and punishment another. As a Texan whom has spent much time in the Chicago area, I am glad to be back home, and hope my friends there get justice. I will cross my fingers for you.

You know whats kind of Ironic here is shortly after the George Ryan affair,they made it mandatory that state employee's in the Department of Corrections take a Ethics test annually! Actually mine is do again in a month or two ::) I would think this is a state wide thing so I'd like to see Rod's scores :D  Typical Politics Do as I say Not as I Do  >:(

Yours is sobering torpedoman as the IL Supreme court is defending Rod from being ousted. Looks like most everyone else wants him out though.
It could be early but I think that I am going to be sick!...this release is 3Hr's old.

I watched one of the national news programs(meet the press or whatever)this last weekend and one Republicans stated there are no rules or laws governing impeachment, in Illinois? Nothing in our constitution or any other laws. If the legislature now creates new laws it will mean any future impeachment proceedings will have to follow the rules or laws that they make. So they need to tread lightly. Certainly would benefit all of Illinois, if he would just step down but, I personally, don't see that ever happening.

Scroll down and listen to all three segments of Illinois Senator Dan Rutherford's press conference, it wil give you some insight into what's going on.

I bet he'll be in office until the next election.  If he kisses Chicago's butt long and hard enough he will probably even get re-elected.
