Yep. That's something, isn't it? Let's you know that his clownish press conference today wasn't just a poor attempt at showing confidence to the media. He really is enough of an egotistical dip**** to believe what's coming out of his mouth.

Yeah, I actually voted for him a couple of times years ago. I thought he was acceptable or ok back then.

His latest actions and interviews have made me totally sick.

All I know is, if I ever have a chance to vote in an election he may be in, in the future, I will not vote for him.

Burris says he's senator — seating unlikely Tues. - Yahoo! News (http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090105/ap_on_go_co/senate_burris_22 - broken link)

Quote:
Burris, in turn, has gone to court hoping to win an order for White to sign the necessary paperwork, and has also threatened to sue to take his seat in the Senate.

"We are hoping and praying that they will not be able to deny what the Lord has ordained," Burris said Sunday night.

He's no Al Franken, that's for sure

I think we need to remember not to vote in the Democrats who denied us the right to vote for a recall amendment last Novemeber. We wouldn't be needing to have this conversation now.

So now he was picked by God? Wow, he truly could be crazy... Perhaps he should be checked for senility. I've met at least a couple of senile 71-year-olds. Blago and Burris are seeming more and more similar every day with these delusions of grandeur.

This just goes to show that the Blagojevich vs. Burris primary election in 2002 was a big LOSE/LOSE situation for Illinois (like many of our elections)!!! Imagine what Burris may have done as Governor! He sounds just as crazy as Blago right now.

I hope it is ordained by god that a large flock on pigeons fly over Roland and take a group poop on his head while another does the same to his mausoleum.
