Democratic opposition to seating Burris cracks - Yahoo! News

Democratic opposition to seating Burris cracks - Yahoo! News

This is not about Roland Burris. Burris knew what he was up against. This is not about black and white, even though there are those who would like to make it white and black. This is about justice. This is about a criminal in public office signing bills, carrying on with public business and making ludicrous appointments.

The reason crime flourishes in our backyard is because people will not stand up and say stop. Criminal thinking and behaving flourishes because the criminal camouflage their activities. Blagojevich, like Hamas, are using their "public' to camouflage their criminal activities.

This is not about black and white. It is about what is right. Blacks should be inflamed that Blagojevich is using them to camouflaged his criminal thinking and behaving. It appears that Blagojevich has decided to use blacks as a pawn to spur decent, resentment and confusion among those who are have the audactity to oppose him. This is what criminals do.

Now Burris has hired a team of lawyers to fight the fact that Blagojevich is a sitting Governor who is going about governmental business, such as signing bills and making arrangements for the voting processes for the seat of Raum Immanuel, and to think he, Blagojevich, cannot go about the same business to appoint someone to Senator Obama's seat. There is one thing wrong with this theory. Governor Blagojevich has been charged in a Federal criminal complaint and is going to be indicted for attempting to "sell" President Obama's seat. The other thing is Burris believes the court case involving another black being refused to Senate will help him. There are problems with this theory also. That court case involved someone who was "voted" in office.
