Blagojevich plans to hold a 2 PM press conference today so I think we can safely assume he’ll be bringing in a new crop of human shields. What I’m thinking is that instead of the overdone drinking game every time he says some cliche, we should create some bingo cards for who he brings along.
Take a sheet of paper. Divide it up with a 5 X 5 grid and place 25 different types of disadvantaged people in each box. If you can cross off 5 in a row (up, down, diagonally) you get bingo.
We have the time to figure out the best choices for anyone having a hard time so add to the following in comments:
Kidney Transplant Kid
Parapalegic Homeless Man
Flu Victim
etc.
All of these are very sad cases and to be clear, the point is the Governor is exploiting them and that’s the absurdity of it.
This one is so obvious. remember what he said…
“It was a complete surprise, completely unexpected. And just like the United States prevailed in that, we’ll prevail in this.”
— Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich (D), quoted by the AP, comparing his impeachment to the attack on Pearl Harbor.
I figure he brings in FDR, Douglas MacArthur, Steven Ambrose, George Patton and Eisenhower. The only difference between those folks and Blago is body temperature
