A Little Blago for Everyone by Jonah Goldberg on National Review Online

A Little Blago for Everyone by Jonah Goldberg on National Review Online: "According to the Chicago Sun-Times, as of 2006 — when Blago’s predecessor, George Ryan, was sent to prison for racketeering — 79 elected officials had been convicted of corruption in the past 30 years. Among the perps: 27 aldermen, 19 judges, 15 state legislators, three governors, two congressmen, one mayor, two turtledoves, and a partridge in a stolen pear tree. Especially in this holiday season, it’s so very important to keep traditions alive for the kids. In a sense, Blago did it for the children."

Not exactly. He did it for the bleeping children.
