WHY ARE THE FACTS SO MEAN TO ROLAND BURRIS?

Rod Blagojevich Solely Responsible For Employment Of Entire Burris Family

Thursday, February 26th, 2009

Shine on, you crazy diamond“SCANDAL MUSHROOMS,” reports the Chicago Sun-Times, and indeed, this scandal is off the hook, mushroom-wise. Latest revelation: “The son of embattled Sen. Roland Burris is a federal tax deadbeat who landed a $75,000-a-year state job under former Gov. Rod Blagojevich five months ago.” Well that just shows how very generous the former governor was, giving out jobs to anyone named Burris and never asking anything in return. [Chicago Sun-Times]
