But as you point out, if Blago can't be removed there's nothing to be done and Reid will give up embarrassed in the end. The prosecution's fuckup is forgivable -- they figured he'd quit, and so did I until he didn't -- but at this point it seems best to let the story die asap. <BR/><BR/>Jenny's remark -- assuming it pertains to Blago -- is a valuable corrective to the media's one-sided coverage.Zedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10623092831367861959noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5145200404704322540.post-47332176329304383832009-01-06T18:25:00.000-05:002009-01-06T18:25:00.000-05:00You sonofabitch.

Could you imagine them not allowing the seat to be filled until the conclusion of a trial. This thing could stretch out two years!<BR/><BR/>The prosecution really must not have shit if they felt they needed to ask for an additional 3 months to dredge lake Michigan for dead bodies with Blago's fingerprints.pixel34https://www.blogger.com/profile/00135310764713996649noreply@blogger.com
