Blagoevich's arrest was NOTHING like Siegelman's

[FLAprogressive]

Those that are comparing the two are delusional. Siegelman's arrest and imprisonment was a bona fide BushCo hitjob.

Blagoevich's is not. There is so much evidence that proves to the contrary. There was zero credible evidence in Siegelman's case. Face it, Blago is corrupt and he was caught on tape.

I heard people saying the same things about Bill Jefferson recently....you don't get caught handling marked bills and get caught on tape with Nigerian financiers engaging in illegal because of some BushCo. hitjob. Some people are just in denial.

Can we just admit that, yes, there are some corrupt Democrats; and that, yes, we need to hold their feet to the fire just like we would to any corrupt GOPer? If we do not and continue to deny deny deny, we are really no better than they are.

1. 100% correct

Sadly the same day Don Siegelman is trying to have his name cleared, this crap surfaces.
Run all the corrupt politicians from the Dem party - time for change indeed.
