 Burris Did More for Blagojevich Than He Let OnPosted on Feb 17, 2009
Surprise! Roland Burris has no credibility. The man who condemned former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich for allegedly trying to sell Barack Obama’s Senate seat—until he was appointed to it—has revealed that, contrary to what he told the United States Congress in sworn testimony, he tried to raise money, as requested, for the governor-turned-auctioneer. In Burris’ defense, he wasn’t any good at it. At least according to Burris, who, as previously noted, has no credibility.

most people, given the same conditions, are as worthy and/or as venal as any other. in the case of the american people, their rise to wealth and influence has been so great and so precipitous (if situational) that they have gone and are going the way of all societies at that same reckless pace. witness walmart. another huge fortune amassed by a dime store chain but the ultimate fortune by the worst dime store chain as america is perhaps the ultimate worst society extant. walmart is america and conversely even though we have from time to time known better.
Report thisa politician appoints a politician and they are all redundantly corrupt. wow. upon only such dupes as walmart’s america could so specious and manifestly rotten a construct as america’s values be foisted. from the people who not only gave you george bush but forced him down our gaping craw and, appropriately, sold out to do it.
hurry sundown.

Come on you idiots, its the GOP thats keeping this thing going. DUH. Where’s your brain?
The house and senate (your pals) are guilty of being complicit in TORTURE. Get a grip on reality. No one can beat that. Burris is an angel compared to them. Get over it.
I don’t know what kind of so-called progressive would even bring this up again.

Burris is a shyster- he is at home among all his fellow shysters in Congress. Immorality characterizes Washington and Wall Street, and maybe most Americans.
