In 2006, Tom Tancredo (Republican/Colorado) termed our end of the state a "third world country." We resented his effrontery but also understood what he was trying to say even if it was an offensive way of saying it. Our own republican governor at the time resented it publicly but, hey, he was supposed to.
So, isn't it nice of the governor of Illinois to take some of the heat off of our part of the country? I mean, how "third world" an action is it to try to sell access to a senate seat appointment? It sounded almost like he wanted to auction it off.
Rod Blagojevich, that Illinois' Democratic Governor, looks so boyish and candid in his interviews. Naive? Either that or he has gotten away with so much misbehavior that it seems like the norm for him.
At any rate, even though we deplore his actions, the eyes of the media are focused elsewhere for a change.
What a pleasant respite . . .

Even Master Yoda couldn't lift this one out of the mud.

That kinda mud is especially sticky, id'n it?
"Jaba du Hutt," "Hate leads to the dark side, hmmm." I don't say bad things about where I live. I just know that the rest of the U.S. does not like us. After all we are at the butt end of jokes from the rest of the State. All I say about Miami is we are an extention away from the rest of the U.S.
We finally know how to vote. Only took a few years.
