What? Over? Did you say 'over'??? Nothing is over until HE decides it is!
After all, there's always carpet-bagging!
Don't let the door hit you on the ass on the way out there, Blago.
Buh-bye, now!
Now .. onto the rest of the legislature, Chicago City Council and the Office of the Mayor.
Tossing out corrupt pols should be like eating Lays potato chips - you can't stop at just one.
Hey, yo...
While your cleaning house, please don't forget about Toddler Stroger and the Crook County Board!
