Good on Jesse White. No fan of Blago, but the REAL villain here is the bank Blago righteously villified the day before his premature arrest and trial by media:
BANK OF AMERICA.

"Fall guy"? I think that Jesse White did the right and honorable thing in refusing to certify ANY appointment by Blagojevich. Again, I say ANY appointment, since some people are trying to make this about Burris rather than our disgraced governor.

Something is going on here. Ben, do you think it smells? All these polls show the majority of voters nationwide and across Illinois are against Roland W. Burris getting his seat. Every politician was against Roland Burris finishing Barack Obama's term and now changing their tune. There are backroom dealings here that really need some sunlight brought on by the press. Does any Chicago paper still have an investagative staff?

right...lol..."monkey see, monkey do". how 'bout that tumbling nonsense. not exactly career building.
