Illinois' maestro of phony reform, Governor Rod Blagojevich, is at it again. From the Chicago Sun-Times:
At the same time Gov. Blagojevich pressed the Legislature to cap individual campaign contributions at $1,000, his political organization was mailing out invitations to an upcoming fund-raiser seeking individual donations as high as $10,000.
More on the Chicago Democrat:
An invitation to the Field Museum gala shows Blagojevich established a sliding scale for contributors. For a $1,000 contribution, a donor is characterized as a "sponsor." For $2,500, the designation becomes a "patron." For $5,000, a donor can be a "benefactor." And a $10,000 check earns a contributor the title of "co-chair."
UPDATE: In the print edition of the Chicago Sun-Times, the invitation lists the direct line to Blago's polictical office, which is (773) 404-2006. If you'd like to attend, give them a call, if you want to tell them what hypocrites the Blago-ites are, feel free to tell them that!
