This will be devastating…
The former law school roommate, longtime friend and onetime chief of staff to Rod Blagojevich is now taking a new role against the former governor: federal witness.
While Lon Monk showed up in federal court Thursday to plead not guilty to a wire fraud charge, a federal prosecutor said a plea deal is due in short order.
And speaking of circuses…
NBC executives have asked Patti Blagojevich to act in her husband’s stead and become a contestant on the reality show “I’m a Celebrity … Get Me Out of Here!”
But a defense lawyer, who did not want to be named, said the couple will heed their attorneys’ warnings and not allow Patti to do the show. The attorney said the two were told: “They both should follow Judge [James] Zagel’s sage advice regarding Costa Rica.”
Finally:
During filming Thursday of a promotional spot for the NBC reality series “I’m a Celebrity … Get Me Out of Here!” Blagojevich was strapped into a harness and hoisted in front of a blank “green screen” to simulate a parachute jump.
Wind machines mussed his famous mop of hair for the spot filmed at the Los Angeles County Arboretum, standing in for the Costa Rican jungle.

I told everyone G-Rod was an entertainer and belonged in Hollywood with the rest of the wacko's. Now I watched him on TV and he was signing his autograph to anyone that asked his security had to get him out there were so many people. He loved every minute of the attention he was getting. Now yes when convicted you'll fine people selling his autograph on EBay. But Hollywood always entertains. I visit Wiggie in Hollywood and believe me you don't need a dime to have fun. People give out free tickets to shows and have drawings for free movie tickets. Artist are playing music and people are handing out free stuff. Inside the Mall they give free samples of food and even concerts by famous Artist. Yesterday DePoush Mode gave a free concert and three blocks were closed on Hollywood and Vine. One movie house has old movies about 2 months after their released and you can see them for one dollar ya cheap but it's the same movie that played 2 months ago for 14 dollars.
We have the Urkel show ongoing.
Now Blago, the Judge who kept him off the reality show tried to save him from himself, but he has found other ways to make a fool of himself.
I saw this and was so embarrassed for him. Even Stuart Levine (the snitch for the Rezko/Blago and many more to come) is at least working a regular job as a clerk.
Couldn't Blago just get a job working for lawyers (a staff support, researcher, something, where he won't be trying a case, reading over contracts, anything...!) and downsize his lifestyle, sell that huge home, get a bungalow, and quit embarrasing himself, his family, this state.
Then we have the embarassment Drew Peterson, sideshow circus, himself. And why this guy is running loose I'll never know.
Illinois should be making news for having a President come from this state, and by the way even David Brooks thought he was doing a good job when Lehrer asked him about the first 100 days.
Illinois does not need anymore negative, circus, carnival like attention, we have had more than enough to last for decades.
Mama says she has yardwork for Blago to do, pulling weeds and trimming bushes. How much is minimum wage? Blago raised it, so he should benefit from it.
Mama says Blago ain't welcome inside the house. She' have to lock up the silverware.
Mama used to say: Take your time young man.
Mama used to say: Take your time to get old.
Mama used to say: Live your lifeI couldn't resist that. lol That is from a song.
By the time Blago has his trial, most of the defendants indicted will be federal witnesses and testify against G-Rod. And Fitz will use Krytonite on Superman G-Rod in the trial to put G-Rod away for good in the pokey. And G-Rod will have all the time in the world in his jail cell to go down memory lane on how he can fly like Superman and his reality shows.
I can't wait to see Balgo's ego get in the way and he tries to defend himself. Against Fitz and his team? Blago better ask for a handicap like they give out in bowling or golf.
"I can't wait to see Balgo's ego get in the way and he tries to defend himself."
God forbid, Blago breaks out in a song at the trial and thinks that he is John Adams in the musical play "1776." ;-)
