harry reid sure is patronizing. And an egomaniac who has something to prove. Must must have grown up poor or lacking and is trying to show he's just as good if not better than the people he thinks he rules. What is Nanci Pelosi's job? He is not going to like having a Columbia-Harvard "articulate" president looking down on him - especially if he some race issues. Not wanting Emil Jones or Jesse Jackson, jr cannot be entirely explained by race. Plenty of reasons supersede skin color.
So he had his photo op with Mr Burris and Dick Durbin. Had his lieutenant stand behind him while he presided and then he spoke. It was shocking. He sounded like a guy talking in a bar. He didn't even have the common respect for a fellow democrat (who has not been indicted on anything) to address him by his first name or title - just "Blagojevich". He has a personal vendetta. Perfectly clear. Maybe those conversations happened and maybe he did say some "racially insensitive" things. It would explain his blago venom. I bet he holds a mean grudge.
Excuses and concessions:
Jesse White's signature absolute necessity - rule has never been circumvented.
Testify before the impeachment committee.
And then he threw it back to Lisa Madigan just like barry would have. Illinois Supreme Court to rule on whether Jesse White's signature can be circumvented.
Jesse White is just keeping his word. Didn't expect blago to call their bluff. Never saw it coming. Noe of them did.
Clears all three - he can be reconsidered. But then Senate can refuse to seat him:
Article 1, Section 5 of the U.S. Constitution: "Each house shall be the judge of the elections, returns and qualifications of its own members.
I had no idea all these things were included in The Constitution. Anyway it will never happen.
How can a secretary of state veto a governor who has been found guilty of nothing?
Wasn't President Clinton signing and appointing during his impeachment proceedings?
And then there's race. Bobby Rush has never shied away from it.
