Speaking to a WLS-TV reporter outside a Chicago law office, the governor said he was hired to fight for the people of Illinois and that's what he's been doing.

He's fighting for them starting with the highest bidder and then moving down the list.

"Look, if I'd have known people were listening, I probably wouldn't have said some of the things you say in private conversations," Blagojevich said

Guilty!

Liberals believe that the ends require the means. If he says that he was wrong it will damage the entire party.

Fight, fight, fight. The modern Democrat party is all about fighting....other Americans. The people who want to kill us get hugs and kisses.

I am truly learning to hate the dems who must lie to achieve power. God help me.

You could leave one of the stories up on front page. I think the fact that Blago spoke out is newsworthy enough for the front page.

Imagine getting the wake-up call at the age of 12 and seeing behind the proverbial curtain into exactly how these people operate as I did. I paid dearly from that point on for taking a peak, but I'd had to have been as blind as a bat not to see. The problem is, even after they see, too many still willfully choose to cover their eyes. They don't want to see it. Those are the worst of all. No, not the ones that do the crime, the ones that enable it and allow those to continue to perpetuate this activity year after year, and when confronted, dismiss it with the old excuse, "They all do it." No, they don't.

That Blago is fighting for the people of Illinois is like saying that prostitutes are fighting for chastity.
