As for the Ill governor, this is what happens when you elect crooks and no one watches over them. This is just the beginning.
CROOKS YOU CAN BELIEVE IN!!
We may have to march on Washington to get these weasels out of there.
Everyone has had tiws with people that may not be on the up and up, but does that mean that you are responsible for their actions?
It appears that everyone is making money on Obama, but because this man, the Govenor is a public servant was busted, how can you blame Obama? After all, this man was a governor, so it is not unusual for him to have dealt with him. The governor, like others wanted to capitalize on Obama's name.
The sitiing president is corrupt as anyone,yet noone cares that thousands of lives were lost based on lies. You people are sick!
I don't know why everyone is so surprised about the state of Illinois, which is the known capital of the Mafia!
If The governor of Illinos is corrupt, then what about the sitting president?
