THE POOR MAN'S FITZMAS

  • OH AND HERE’S SOME ACTUAL NEWS: “Blagojevich, 52, was indicted on 16 felony counts, including racketeering conspiracy, wire fraud, extortion conspiracy, attempted extortion and making false statements to federal agents. He allegedly abused his office in numerous matters to seek money, campaign contributions, and employment for himself and others, in exchange for official actions, including trying to leverage his authority to appoint a United States senator, U.S. Attorney Patrick J. Fitzgerald said in a statement.” Patrick Fitzgerald is the fucking angel of death (but also racist for doing this to important Civil Rights leader Gandhi Blagojevich). [CBS 2 Chicago]

    Why can’t you go around raping every white-collar law on the books as the most corrupt Illinois governor since the last one without being left alone? This is injustice.

    Gandhi Blago. Wow. I see a hunger strike in his future.

    Damn! A day too late. I was hoping he and Ted could be cell-mates.

    It is impossible to comprehend the magnitude of these charges without a blingee.

    shortsshortsshorts: so sayeth Walt Whitman in a poem entitled “Bitch set me up”

  7. sweetcandy says at 7:35 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    I also heard that Blago helped Wonkette rig a blingee contest.

    Mahatma Blago is going on a hair brushing strike.

    It gets even betta… guess who is rumored to be ‘doing the Mouse’ down Orlando way?

    Selig wouldn’t confirm Blagojevich was in Disney World, but several tourists sent Chicago media outlets pictures of the governor at the theme park. Additionally, an operator at the Saratoga Springs Resort and Spa confirmed a room was booked under Blagojevich’s name. A message left at the room’s voice mail was not returned.

    The $300-a-night hotel is billed as an “equestrian-themed Victorian-style villa resort.”

    So, bets on who he compares himself to in the next speech? Odds on Mother Teresa?

  11. Gallowglass says at 8:02 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    Oh no! Now who will lead Illinois to freedom from the terrible racism of the British Raj? He had a dream you guys!

  13. Nerdalicious says at 8:28 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    Madoff & Blago will soon be a uhmmm couple at Levinworth. They will steal all the contraband, cigarettes, food & cheap quick s*x.

  14. Nerdalicious:

    Funny, except that your blingee is strangely attractive - in a Liberace sorta way.

  15. Nerdalicious says at 8:38 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    Rush:
    Blago got in a shank fight in Levinworth over some contraband & the “let em eat cake gang” war. That’s how he got the scar. In White Collar Prisons it’s a bunch of wasps fighting over caviar & such. I’m glad I could excite you this evening with my new pastime..blingeeing. BTW I luv your avatar, so cute! I want to pinch it’s cheeks everytime I see it.

  16. Nerdalicious says at 8:45 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    Rush:
    Rush this one’s for you & Scandelabra! Do you think Liberace is gay? I don’t know…..

    I just can’t relate to the indictment without some sexy text messages. I miss me some Kwame.

  18. chascates says at 8:52 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    Nerdalicious: Well blinged, sir.

  19. Nerdalicious says at 8:59 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    chascates:
    Tanks :).

  20. Cheer up, gang. When prosecutorial conduct means Palin’s Attorney General drops charges in 2012, we can try to get Blago seated again. It’s only fair, right?

  21. SayItWithWookies says at 9:55 pm, April 2nd, 2009

    Nerdalicious: Oh nice. Suddenly I want to do the Time Warp.

  22. Nerdalicious says at 10:08 pm, April 2nd, 2009
  23. Nerdalicious:

    Thanks for the thoughtful clip. Although the portion from 1:44 to 1:54 will forever affect me in some Barney Frank / San Francisco way.

    Glad you like the avatar - just not sure which “cheeks” you were referring to.

    And somewhere Rahm Emanuel is smiling

    I hate to tell you mooks, but there’s no fucking way they convict him. Still, being a south side guy (Sox fan) means that I’m still glad that the north side guy (Cubs fan) got kicked out of office. Oh, and he’s a lying sack of shit, too.
