Burris? It’s okay, he’s Black. They are never held responsible for anything.
Yep! We is drainin that swamp!
:o)
I think they’ve managed to back themselves into a corner. The idea seems to have been to seat Burris, get his vote on the Porculus package, and then suddenly discover that he was a serial perjurer when he applied for the job and throw him under the bus. That way, they wouldn’t be stuck with a loser in office for the next election.
But they underestimated the difficulty of booting a black, even under the leadership of a black president. So, now they’re stuck with him until election time, and about all they can do is wring their hands and pretend to “investigate” his string of perjured statements.
