OH SO HE'S A PSYCHOPATH

Roland Burris Has Already Constructed His Terrifying Death Chamber

Wonkette grave-robbing operative “Vasyl” sends us this hilarious bit of information about your would-be new junior Senator from Illinois, Roland “Don’t Lynch Me” Burris: “Just so you know, that nice old black man who is set to become the next US Senator from Illinois is well prepared. He has already built a tombstone — actually, more of a monument — with all his accomplishments listed on it. Planning ahead, he has left extra space for additional accomplishments.

Also, Roland Burris’s children? They’re named Roland II and Rolanda. No joke.” HMM… It appears that there is much to learn about this so-called “Roland Burris.” [Flickr]

This guy is alive and already has his grave and tomb built!

In Illinois, I guess that's called 'early voting'?

Does this mean he's now on the voter rolls twice?

Or is this how you register for after death voting?

Is every Chicago politician a narcisistic egomaniac?

He could have the phrase “Purchased the Senate Seat of President-Elect Obama from the Governor of Illinois, 2008” engraved on there — no matter what the final outcome. ;-)

With a Rat like him, you must wonder who paid for his tomb.
Was it the taxpayer? Or just a contractor kick-back?

There are questions that no one is asking here, so I’ll go ahead and ask them:

1) How much did Burris “donate” to Blago for this “f***ing golden thing”?

2) What did potty-mouth Patty get out of this?

Let’s all agree to pray that God continues to shine His Holy light on Chicago and expose them all for the whole world to see.

Evidently the Mrs. has already passed on (tomb on the right). Wonder how many glorious things are engraved on this thing in her honor. If the meek truly do inherit the earth, this pompous bleep can forget it.

>> 1) How much did Burris “donate” to Blago for this “f***ing golden thing”? <<<

"Burris has given $15,296 to Blagojevich since 2002. That includes contributions directly from him and his firm, Burris & Lebed Consulting."

Burris has long history of brazenness

Roland Burris also has a habit of referring to himself in the third person...

Blago has the SENATE seats? We wants it, WE DO!!!! My precious...

This “tombstone” was the obvious inspiration for Obama’s Mile High Stadium speech decor.

Blagojevich Plays The Race Card On Fellow Democrats
Legal Insurrection Blog ^

Posted on Tuesday, December 30, 2008 2:28:09 PM by Legal Insurrection

Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich’s appointment of Roland Burris has put the Democratic party in a box. By appointing an African-American to the empty Senate seat, Blagojevich has forced his political opponents to risk being called racists. In supporting the appointment, Congressman Bobby Rush called opposition to Burris an attempted lynching. Whether this analogy is justified is questionable, but it is the same tactic that has been used against conservatives for decades, most recently by the Obama campaign. Democrats are getting a dose of their own medicine, and I hope it goes down like a bitter pill.

“Maybe this is Blago’s way of appealing to one of the most important RAT constituencies: the cemetery votes.”

Awesome comment.

So far as I can make out, she was an R.N. and a Ph.D.

Can't read the smaller print.

What do you mean? It says right there on his monument that he is the most modest man in Illinois.
