A possible silver lining in the Blagojevich clouds, for residents of ILLINOIS.
Edited on Thu Dec-11-08 09:48 PM by pnwmom
ILLINOIS is famous now. ILLINOIS is the talk of TV, the talk of radio, even the talk of you-tube.

Everybody everywhere is talking about corruption and corrupt politicians in the STATE OF ILLINOIS.

So maybe, just maybe, all the out-of-staters will learn, once and for all, that the name is pronounced ILL-in-OY.

:shrug:

(Then they can start working on how to spell and pronounce Blagojevich.)

3. Hopefully the timing of this will mean we'll be on to a Rethug disaster before
the next election cycle.
