From the Mouths of Readers Oftimes Come Gems

One of my favorite web sites for items and discussions about government and politics is TalkingPointsMemo.com.
Obviously, there has been a lot of discussion there recently about Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich. There was a funny, and probably incisive comment about the beleaguered governor posted there the other day from someone identifying himself as an Illinois native:

If someone told me, “Hear about Blogo? He dressed himself up as Elvis, highjacked an Air Yugo flight from O’Hare to Belgrade, and is now living under the protection of Serbia. And he’s formed an exploratory committee for 2016.”

I’d pause for a minute and say, “Yeah, that sounds right.”
