chicagobreakingnews.com— In a historic vote, the Illinois House has impeached Gov. Rod Blagojevich, directing the Senate to put the state's 40th chief executive on trial with the goal of removing him from office.

They didn't have any standing not to seat him - it was a bluff and Blagojevich called it. Whatever else people think he has done (remember the man is _innocent_ until proven guilty in a court of law), Blagojevich is the Governor of Illinois and therefore has the power to appoint a US Senator to fill the vacant seat.
Then it's up to you to inform and educate your family, friends, neighbors, and even stranger who will listen to stop putting DEMOCRATS in office. THEY are COMMUNISTS and the sooner America wakes up to that fact, the better off we'll all be.
Yeah, all that due process crap is a real drag. Anyone who is accused of a crime (by the police or by his political opponents) is by definition guilty, and should have the honour to admit it.

There's a dead fish on the way to Blago's house.

Milt Patterson thought votes were still for sale and sold his vote to Blogo for .89 cents (enough for a taco bell upgrade)

@ayeroxor: Lol, good point, but with only one Digg down I guess no one else noticed either.
