When are they going to have the recall vote for Milton Patterson?

Hmm... I wonder if he'll ever see the trial, or if he'll meet with someone with piano wire and a grudge. He strikes me as the kind who would talk too much.

Don't worry, Blago. Clinton was impeached and now he's worth billions.

Factchecking: Technically he hasn't been impeached... yet. The House voted. The Senate has not yet.

@5 No, technically, he HAS been impeached, just not convicted. Impeachment isn't removing him from office, it's putting him to trial at the Senate, who can convict him and remove him from office.

Far fuckin' out. Let's hope they put the trial on a fast track and kick his sorry ass outta there in the near future.

@4 for the win.

But too late to stop him legally appointing the US Senator from Illinois.

Blago eeewwww...he's not all cute and cudly and right. You have to be cute and cudly and right to be part of Obamaland. You don't have to be smart, but you have to not be an icky Republican or one of those people who don't like Global Warming....eeewww....

But in Chicago, does impeachment really mean he actually loses his job or is it just something to describe his current job title?
