1. Well, good luck on that new job Senator Burris...

and just remember the important thing is,
how good it all looks on the ol' resume, eh?

I remind you sir, because it apparently must be said out loud,
it is one thing to watch a good man stumble and fall from height,
for all men are mortal (fallible),
but it is entirely another to watch such a man JUMP!

Well, good luck in your new job. I hope you do well for our
country and for Illinois. Yet I for one now have reason to doubt
your character and judgment, and whether you are up to the job,
and that concerns me.

Still, you could prove me wrong, and would be fine with me, so I
have some counsel for you. Perhaps fire the people you are hanging
with and get some fresh new help. That's what I'm suggesting.

2. But of course!
