    In case anyone cares... Blago guilty
    Former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich that is, convicted on 17 of 20 counts for trying to sell Obama's Senate seat. The Democrat culture of corruption continues...

    It was either him or the case moved up the ladder to the
    Obots or the crimial enterprise Daley organization.

    Hopefully Blago will feel free to discuss with Fitz the depth of corruption in the State Machine.

    What's Tony Rezko doing these days ? Who sent you ?

    I won't say anything about the many crimes of the now-imprisoned previous Republican governor George Ryan.

    Yes there are tons of corrupt republicans too but that's not important now I guess. Plus I keep trying to figure what an "obot" is, it's used extensively in this forum.

    a little bit of deduction here karma the word obviously comes from removal of the "R" from robot indicating a mechanical and programmed response by persons associated with Obama, the "o" in obot. Short of saying they are clones this is about as close as you get to mindless. The rest of the word may refer to the nether regions of a person's anatomy, suggesting they are of little value. I guess it's a way of defining democrats as backwoods, buck toothed, shoeless, morons. Having said that I'm not sure what tea party says about republicans, just plain idiots I guess

    No, no, no. Obots = shiny silver metal, mechanical, following directions from an energy source (i.e. programmed), mindless, produce occasional monotonous beeping. The tea partiers are the backwoods...

    We Illinoisans are looking forward to the first photos of Blago from prison when sporting his buzzcut.

    Sorry wondergirl I thought I said that. So an obot can't be backward but can it be forward?

    Don't remember when I heard it first.. Maybe it was in Mother Jones . I'll give you the definition from Larry Johnson at No Quarter blog.


    An Obot is an Obama Robot, programmed to see Obama as good and pure, incapable of evil, and a hero who must be robustly defended from criticism.

    In this posting the Obots were in the inner circle of the White House ;Rhambo and Valeri Jarrett . They were willing to sacrifice Blago to save those 2 .
    When Blago realizes he's the patsy (he was stunned yesterday that he had been convicted ) he and Rezko will start singing like canaries .

    Hello Steve:

    I don't know.. I didn't blame the Republicans when Ensign unzipped his pants... I didn't blame the Republicans when the wide stance guy tried to pick up a stranger... I didn't blame the Republicans when their guy tried to pick up congressional pages...

    That's because liberals are MUCH better people than wingers...

    Agreed. It would seem that liberals see people as individuals, not groups that need to be demonized.

    Such short memories, except for tom that is - he hit the nail on the head. I could have just continued one of the threads, it's a long story.

    No he didn't. He's just trying to prove to you that two wrongs make a right - which is not the case. Can we not glorify the wrongdoings and instead praise the good deeds?
