The speed at which news, and opinion, travels through the internet is almost as fast as the “pipes” that carry the traffic. Already comments are popping up in my various feeds about Blagojevich appointing Roland Burris to US Senate…

[12:28] Elliott Ramos: i think blago lost it
[12:28] Elliott Ramos: simply lost it

Thomas Walker Polk just watched the really crazy Blago press conference…what a circus! 2:18pm

Phil DaBeatz is visibly in pain after listening to this press conference. I never imagined I would need a translator to understand English. 2:15pm

Saintless: Blago says of Burris: “Feel free to castigate the appointer, but don’t lynch the appointor.” (Burris is black, btw)

dhsteinberg: Blago still hasn’t resigned and today named a successor to Barack’s Senate seat. http://is.gd/edzE This douchebag knows no bounds.

But by far the best one…

Rachelle Bowden best gawker comment re blago: “This guy has four balls. At least four. Maybe six. And they’re big.” 2:33pm

 

Really, the guy should just resign. Forget about whether he is innocent or guilty, he has lost the ability to govern. Not that he was getting much done before hand anyway, but now he is just useless.  At least he won’t be remembered as the governor who screwed the CTA (but he did do that).
