It’s official: Bye Bye Blagojevich

It is finally over.

CHICAGO, Jan. 29 — The Illinois Senate voted unanimously Thursday to remove Gov. Rod Blagojevich (D) from office for abuse of power, ending a weeks-long impeachment ordeal that ranged between drama and farce.

Time for Senator Burris to start sweating?

    Pack up all my care and woe,
    Here I go,
    Singing low,
    Bye bye Blago,
    Where Patti waits for me,
    I’m outta luck, so is she,
    Bye bye
    Blago!

    No one here can love or understand me,
    Oh, what hard luck stories they all hand me,
    Make my bed and light the light,
    I’ll be home late tonight,
    Blago bye bye.

    Blago is gone and nothing changes in Illinois. On crook gone and the city of Chicago is full of crooks who call politics their game. Its been a while since I’ve been here. Glad to see the fight continues.

    Nice lyrics, Mark J…just what I was thinking! Can’t wait for “Bye Bye, Blagojevich – The Musical.”

    *IDEA*… http://honeywest.com Honey West could star in the role of Rod Blagojevich (ala Julie Andrews in Victor Victoria: a woman pretending to be a man pretending to be a woman…but in this case, a man pretending to be a woman pretending to be a man), with her full cherubic cheeks perfectly capturing his image. There could be a cameo appearance by Betty Loren-Maltese (again, played by talented Ms. West) and other notorious Chicago politicals…the possibilities are endless!…I’m thinking: big trunk full of wigs, hats, eyeglasses, cigarettes and other props like the play, Greater Tuna. Honey, if you are out there, this would be a brilliantly comic theatrical tour-de-force for you to incorporate into your club act, if not a full-scale play or musical production.
