WTF
When did this turn into a 12 step meeting.
Punched in the gut.
Healing process.
Now that was good:
We’ve got this thing impeachment, and it bleepin golden.
Kotowski–sweet short and to the point. More like that please.
C’mon Ricky, we need some good quotes
Unanimous Reportedly
WBBM780’s Melissa Hahn just broke in to say the #Blagojevich vote will be unanimous.
Who says he isn’t a uniter.
Speech Coach Needed
Seriously, you can’t look up from your paper for more than a glance? You are a State Senator.
Nevermind….
Oh crap, he lost his place on the script even.
Cycle of life? Is there a random cliche generator on some screen off camera?
A new beginning, A new…..a drinking game would have gotten me hammered already.
Right the ship…
In case you are not sure. Terry Link is very, very sad.
Not going to fix it with more ethical legislation. True in one sense, but given someone can hand the Governor a $50,000+ contribution it would be a lot harder with contribution limits.
This latest one is literally spewing cliches…
TAINT!
Free at last.. Really?

Effingham isn’t that far south.
I’m Thinking Parachute
10:56 a.m. Blagojevich won’t stick around; Quinn in the wings
Blagojevich will leave the Senate and the statehouse immediately after his closing argument to return home on a state aircraft, to avoid any “plane issues,” spokesman Lucio Guerrero said. State lawmakers and Lt. Gov. Patrick Quinn have said Blagojevich is not entitled to state transporation home if he is convicted and removed before he leaves.
Lt. Gov. Patrick Quinn is at the statehouse. Quinn came own on a state plane with Supreme Court Justice Anne Burke, who will swear him in if he becomes governor. His two sons will also be here.
Rebuttal
How do you rebut anything that didn’t address the actual articles of impeachment?
He Should Have Gone Nuclear
It would have been more fun and all any of this is good for at this point is entertainment value.
And Then a Little Black Kid Thought I Was Mayor Daley
All the anecdotes are pretty much the same anymore. But he didn’t raise their taxes.
His Defense is the Animal House Defense
Otter: Ladies and gentlemen, I’ll be brief. The issue here is not whether we broke a few rules, or took a few liberties with our female party guests – we did.
[winks at Dean Wormer]
Otter: But you can’t hold a whole fraternity responsible for the behavior of a few, sick twisted individuals. For if you do, then shouldn’t we blame the whole fraternity system? And if the whole fraternity system is guilty, then isn’t this an indictment of our educational institutions in general? I put it to you, Greg – isn’t this an indictment of our entire American society? Well, you can do whatever you want to us, but we’re not going to sit here and listen to you badmouth the United States of America. Gentlemen!
[Leads the Deltas out of the hearing, all humming the Star-Spangled Banner]
Add this to his Pearl Harbor claims and we now know he is either Otter or Bluto:
D-Day: War’s over, man. Wormer dropped the big one.
Bluto: Over? Did you say “over”? Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell no!
Otter: Germans?
Boon: Forget it, he’s rolling.
Bluto: And it ain’t over now. ‘Cause when the goin’ gets tough…
[thinks hard]
Bluto: the tough get goin’! Who’s with me? Let’s go!
[runs out, alone; then returns]
Bluto: What the fuck happened to the Delta I used to know? Where’s the spirit? Where’s the guts, huh? This could be the greatest night of our lives, but you’re gonna let it be the worst. “Ooh, we’re afraid to go with you Bluto, we might get in trouble.” Well just kiss my ass from now on! Not me! I’m not gonna take this. Wormer, he’s a dead man! Marmalard, dead! Niedermeyer…
Otter: Dead! Bluto’s right. Psychotic, but absolutely right. We gotta take these bastards. Now we could do it with conventional weapons that could take years and cost millions of lives. No, I think we have to go all out. I think that this situation absolutely requires a really futile and stupid gesture be done on somebody’s part.
Bluto: We’re just the guys to do it.
D-Day: Let’s do it.
Bluto: *Let’s do it*!
