I was wondering if I could make fun of Syverson when I read the headline, but in reading it, he pretty much nails it.  Good for you Senator:

 

Illinois lawmakers already told Blagojevich ‘You’re fired,’ he doesn’t need to hear it again from Donald Trump,” the letter read.

“To Hollywood, Rod Blagojevich might be a harmless joke, but to Illinoisans he’s no laughing matter,” Syverson wrote. “Putting him on The Apprentice gives him a national megaphone to not only influence potential jurors, but to defend his horrible record as governor that contributed to the economic and budgetary collapse Illinois faces today.”

Syverson will file a senate resolution urging NBC and Donald Trump to kick Blago off the show.

“There’s a reason why the Illinois Senate voted unanimously to remove him from office,” Syverson said. “From day one, he embraced a pattern of corruption that not only involved the sale of state influence and contracts to the highest bidder, but his reckless fiscal policies have driven Illinois to the point of bankruptcy. That’s Rod Blagojevich’s real record.”
