"I've got this thing and it's fucking golden"

[Gold Metal Flake]

Asked if the $14,000 in contributions from Mr. Burris to Blagojevich's campaigns had any influence on the Governor's decision, Mr. Burris replied, "was it that much? I have to check my records".

I'm not suggesting money has changed hands. I'm simply pointing out that we have some tone deaf motherfuckers here.

The pinch hitter coming in from the crowd late in the game was priceless.

:rofl:

1. yep....and you'll never hear about the other records...the ones

kept in the warehouse somewhere.

2. This is just ugly all the way.

3. Anybody stil think Barack was wrong to condemn this little play?

[Uzybone]

4. Why would a decent man accept?

would an honest man accept a gift (no strings attached of course) from a mobster who is under investigation? Is Burris that desperate?

6. That is my #1 question right now.

A lot of people are asking that. Lets keep asking.

8. Good way to put it

If Burris were honourable, he'd wait until Blagojevich was cleared.

5. Thats why no one Blago appoints will be able to escape the stink

to be an effective Senator. Even if there is no funny business, there are always going to be these types of questions

7. Yup. But why did this guy gladly put the stink on?

9. OH. MY. This one gets richer by the moment....

and I mean the details not the corrupt Guv.

What a joke.
