I just heard some "highlights" on the radio news.  How can the guy, with a straight face, walk up there and say anything about the unsound footing the pension systems were on when he took office 4 years ago?  What's the Hebrew word - Chutzpah?  Amazing.

Also, the legislators I mentioned won't be inaugurated until Wednesday.  Statewides were today.

The Springfield Journal quoted Blago as stating that his agenda for his next term is health care.  Expect him to spend more money that we don't have giving people more benefits and entitlements--I guess that's why he's intent on selling off every asset he can get his slimy hands on, like the student loan portfolio--can the Governor's Mansion be far behind?  I wonder why it's taking Fitzgerald so long to indict?
