Blagojevich: "I'm Blacker than Obama!"

Rod Blagojevich in a new Esquire profile:

That's more than a lot of people have no matter what your race is, geez go crawl back under your rock Roddy.

He said five room, not five bedroom. I live in a one bed room apartment with a living room, one bedroom, a bathroom, and a laudry room and if you count my kitchen, which is seperated from the living room with a counter I have five rooms.

What a dipshit

somebody needs to let him know, so he can just drive by Blagojevich next time!

Crooked in a very comfortable way.

I'd pick him up in a hot second. I think it's the hair.

And I gotta say, Blagojevich definitely demonstrates more of the outsider "brassiness" that one associates with "being black" than Obama demonstrates. Whether one is willing to accept that "brassiness" as a true characteristic of "being black" is... up to one... but I defintely "see what he's saying".

Obviously... some will try to assert that the "brassiness" of which I speak is associated with the alleged corruption. Assert that what I'm saying is tantamount to an unconscious expectation of "corruption" (technically alleged)... but I hereby assure all those who might want to try to do so that such is not the case. What I'm talking about is an acceptance of the nature of the business... and a willingness to work the system... and I truly have the utmost respect for Blagojevich... and, as I've said before... I'd pick him up in my taxi... though I might want some money up front. :+

Cut the poor bastard a break, I say. His "corruption" is no worse than Clinton's... and it was when Clinton was fighting the blowjob bullshit that he was doing more than any other time to fight back the social "straightjacket" of conservative values. In my opinion... it was his most progressive hour... and right now is Blagojevich's.

If you're gonna go on a bizarre, racist, self-nostalgizing tirade, you might as well go for the gold.

Doesn't he know that Obama grew up in an apartment without a lot of money. Oh never mind, he's loony

is that supposed to be an example of growing up in a tough situation ?

I salute them both!

Huzzah!

The Tonya Harding of the Democratic Party.

Enough is enough. He is half black, deal with it already! I see now how minorities deal with things in everyday life. There is never any letting up, is there? Obama just brushes it all off his shoulder anyway and these people look smaller in comparison.

:hi:

He felt the need to say that out loud? This shows his ignorance of history, attitudes, and the trials that most black people have to deal with. The fact that he's not in jail shows how "black" he REALLY is. Just shut up, Rod. :grr:

and i grew up in a house... so i'm not Black anymore?

holy shit! wait 'til i tell my mother, she's gonna flip

now old white ladies can stop clutching their purses when i get on an elevator! joy!

OH SHIT I CAN'T WAIT to see my credit score!

don't get excited about your credit score though.

by leaps and bounds!

Do you think we'll get id cards to prove our new non-blackness? Because I'm SURE there will be some folks out there who just won't buy it and will be convinced otherwise! :rofl:

*wonders if Blago was behind the Obama/Palin shoeshine picture circulated on the internet* :tinfoilhat:

The man is beyond pathetic and the pic is perfect, he looks crazy in it and he IS crazy, imo.

but then again, there's that whole sarah palin thing too, so...

blah
