Shameless bozo Rod Blagojevich, on trial for trying to sell Obama's Senate seat, apparently read news of Osama bin Laden's May 2 death in the only light that Rod Blagojevich can read any news story: by imagining the words "Rod Blagojevich" somewhere in the headline. Would everyone like to consider the possibility that if Rod had appointed himself to the Senate seat, he would have had more superpowers than an entire team of Navy Seals?
Defense attorney Aaron Goldstein asked if he'd ever talked to a deputy governor about appointing himself to the Senate, then traveling to Afghanistan to get bin Laden.
Blagojevich said, "Yes."
WLS Radio Court Reporter Bill Cameron says everyone, including the jury, laughed at the bin Laden comment.

We have missiles that can home in on hysterical laughter.
(You'd be amazed at how well they work in Pakistan.)
I didn't laugh at that ... until I pictured it in my imagination. Now I can't stop snortling.
