I’ve been fighting for THE PROCESS. But, I think we always knew that Blago had been pissing off folks, left and right. I mean, the man took his fights with Daddy Mell public, for pete’s sake.

It was a LEGAL appointment.

Period.

And Massa Madigan underestimated his Northside opponent.

You are right about the silence of King Richard II. Very curious indeed.

But, I’d bet money that Daddy Mell has already worked out Patti’s deal with Fitzgerald. All she has to do is leave Blago. That’s what that Father KNows Best impersonation in the media was all about, when this first story first broke.

Stupid or not, legally Blago could and did make the appointment, and legally Jesse White is compelled to sign it and legally he should have been sworn in this morning. I’ll entertain all other comments and arguments to this appointment secondary to the legal one.
