They arrested my governor!

[Critters2]

:wow:


What an asshat! :rofl:


How's your day?

[tigereye]

1. that's so weird!

our governor insulted (sort of) the new Head of Homeland Security, but I guess that isn't that bad in comparison.


So how dumb is this guy, anyway?



My day is good, did some writing, and it's not as cold as it was - it's in the 40s!

[Critters2]

2. Couldn't believe it. Woke up. Put the beagle out. Heated up some water,

sat down in front of the tube...and hear the governor "is in federal custody"! :wtf:

Apparently, he's pretty dumb. And REALLY, REALLY corrupt.

Glad your day is good. It's warmer here, too! :hi:

[QueenOfCalifornia]

3. He is

a total fucking idiot.

I watched him on MSNBC today and couldn't believe what a sanctimonious liar he is. He did have the total lack of brains to compare his wiretapped phone to Nixon's tapes. What a genius.

[Critters2]

4. Yes, yes he is. You'll get no argument from me. I didn't vote for him,

and think those who did have some 'splainin' to do!!

[AngryAmish]

12. I couldn't vote for the R, so I wrote Krusty in

[Critters2]

14. I voted Green in that one. Couldn't believe anyone voted for Blago. nt

[jobycom]

5. I'm jealous! I want my governor arrested, too!

[Critters2]

7. Yeah, with the right governor, it's a good thing! nt

[LynneSin]

6. AND A DINGO ATE MY BABY TOO

:hide:

[XemaSab]

28. I tried to keep her in the back yard...

Can I get you a new baby? :shrug:

[LynneSin]

30. NO because I'll never have that recipe again - OH NO!!

:cry:

[MineralMan]

8. Arrest my governor....PLEASE!

Minnesota's Governor Polenta, or whatever his name really is...take him away...

[Critters2]

10. LOL!! I always think about polenta when I hear "Pawlenty".

Hmmm...polenta.

[MineralMan]

15. It's almost impossible to resist...but wait, there's more...

The Mayor of Minneapolis is R. T. Ryback. I call him Archie Zweibak on my blog. Pisses him off somewhat, so I put R.T. Ryback in parentheses every time I write it, just for appeasement purposes.

I just can't leave politicos' names alone, I guess...except for President-elect Obama.

[QueenOfCalifornia]

13. Where's

Jesse Ventura? Now that was some fine voting.

We are proud to say that we have the Governator here... *sigh*

[MineralMan]

19. Jesse (The Body) was governor before I moved here.

It was brilliant, though, electing an inarticulate pro wrestler. You don't get that sort of thing in most states. He's good buddies with Kinky Friedman, too.

[Left Is Write]

26. He was the beneficiary of a three-way race...

Coleman on the Repub side and Skip Humphrey on the Dem side. Neither was popular enough to win, and Ventura pulled votes from both of them.

I did not vote for Ventura, but I know several people who did.

[MineralMan]

32. Yah...one of the few times when

a third party candidate wins. And what a candidate! Turned out he didn't really like the job, though.

[Left Is Write]

18. Oh, now that would be lovely. That's a mug shot I'd like to see.

And can they take Norm Coleman with them?

[MineralMan]

24. That'd suit me just fine...

Coleman's not one of my favorite folks, either. I like Al Franken, though. I haven't met him personally, but I had a long conversation with his daughter, Thomasin, during the campaign. He raised up a very nice person there.

[undeterred]

9. His name was kinda weird.

Hey, at least its about money and not sex.

[Critters2]

11. Eastern European. Not so weird in Illinois.

Governor in prison. Also not so weird in Illinois. Sadly.

[undeterred]

17. Yeah, my name is too!

And I lived in Illinois till 8 years ago. Well, IL has had great senators like Paul Simon and Dick Durbin.

[Critters2]

21. I like Durbin generally, but he just asked the Pres to pardon George Ryan.

Another :wtf:

[undeterred]

22. Pardons should be illegal.

[PeaceNikki]

31. He did??!!

Hmmm

All I see is that he might request that his sentence be commuted, not pardoned.

[Left Is Write]

16. GD: Presidential has become GD: Blago today.

[coffeenap]

20. The weirdest part to me is Pat Quinn, Lt. Governor, said

he hasn't spoken to Blago since some time in 2007! Huh??

[Critters2]

23. I think Quinn actually lives in Springfield now. The Governor refused

to move into the Governor's mansion and avoids Springfield as much as possible. He's never given a rat's ass for the state. He cares about Chicago. Quinn is a good guy and probably couldn't stand the sleaze ball governor. Quinn will make a good governor.

[coffeenap]

25. Agreed--but don't you think it is just plain weird that

the Lt. Gov wouldn't have even had a conversation with "the boss" in over a year? Yikes.

[Critters2]

27. It can only help Quinn's career! nt

[Sebastian Doyle]

29. Well, some other governor had to take over the news cycle, I guess

Before this it was my governor being bitched out by the religious reich and BillO the clown for some stupid Xmas display that she had nothing to do with.
