In the "Holy Shit!" Department
Illinois government has always been corrupt, as my dad pointed out when I called him this morning, but this really (literally) takes the cake:
Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich taken into federal custody for attempting to sell Obama's Senate seat, among other disgusting abuses of power and appalling and vile corrupt acts.
I'm traveling to Chicago to visit my family this weekend. It should be an interesting time.

and he was released on only $4500 bail?
Just so you know, Oklahoma has the highest rate of prescription drug arrest -AND- voted for the highest percentage for McCain (I like to pretend it's because everyone was high on OxyContin and not oilfield wages and Jesus). So, I'll take your home state corrupt governor over an entire state of people who've lost their ever-lovin' minds.
What's the coverage of it like back home?
I'm not there until tomorrow, but the topic is pretty dominant nationwide, so I'm guessing it's intense. I'll let you know.
