    He is an extreme narcisist. Problem is nobody did anything about it until now. You read this article and everyone is saying things giving examples of his inappropriate behavior, but what did they do about? Nothing and why? Didn't want to ruin their own cozy positions.

    Heck and you can't blame him for not stepping down. At this point, history show that it could take atleast 2 years before it gets anywhere and he will be getting paid and keep his benefits during that time. He should be put on leave without pay like some other professions while they are being investigated for wrong doings on the job , until his day in court.

    You know I think I get him, it's pretty cool if you don't care. If you can just say F this world. And that's pretty much it. Stupid? Whose to say that?

      I agree. This man was bold.

      • Posted By: 40YearR @ 12/18/2008 3:03:09 PM

        And a few other things too. Not that being bold can't have good consequences too sometimes! :-)

          I need to learn how to be bold and authoratative. Maybe than I will be treated with more respect and people will stop using me.

        THANK YOU !

        I FIGURED THAT " BIG BROTHER " WAS STOPPING MY COMMENTS THIS PAST WEEK.

        I AM A REGISTERED DEMOCRAT. I VOTED FOR BARACK OBAMA.

        I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN AN INDEPENDENT VOTER.

        WILL REGISTER SOON AS INDEPENDENT AGAIN.

        I AM NOT LYING-------------- ARE YOU !

        • Posted By: Pia1981 @ 12/18/2008 7:36:57 PM

    REPUBSSUCK !

    I SAID ! YOU ARE EITHER A LIAR OR YOU ASSUME STUFF ABOUT OTHERS.

    THE BEST YOU HAVE IS, ATTACKING ME ABOUT " CAPS LOCK ? "

    Tell you what ! Mr. Suck. ------------ " caps lock ." ------------

    FEEL BETTER NOW ?

    HOW ABOUT THIS " PROCRASTINATION ( to deter, to delay )."

    NEWS FLASH !

    TODAY ! I DROVE TO CITY HALL AN SWITCHED BACK TO MY FORMER STATUS AS " INDEPENDENT- MAN ".

    TODAY ! I FREED MYSELF FROM THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY.

    WHEN I VOTED FOR BARACK OBAMA, I VOTED FOR HOPE AND CHANGE AND VOTED AGAINST WICKED WITCH HILLARY CLINTON.

    SO I WAS A DEMOCRAT FOR A WHILE -------- STILL BREATHING !

    I JUST COULD NOT VOTE FOR JOHN MC CAIN AND WICKED WITCH SARAH PALIN.

    OBAMA WAS MY CHOICE .

    I ALREADY REGRET MAKING THAT CHOICE AS HE IS PUTTING WITCH HILLARY AND TOM DASCHLE IN HIS ADMINISTRATION.

    UNLIKE REPUBSSUCK !

    I CHOOSE TRUTH AND " CAPS LOCK ".

      Merry Christmas, to you and yours. I'm sorry, but I can't help this.....I TOLD YOU HUSSEIN WAS A CROOK AND A FRAUD.

      Blago is only the tip of the iceberg. Rezko's sentencing was delayed indefinitely yesterday. He is spilling his guts to Fitzgerald....and Hussein is in....up to his pencil skinny neck....The Hospital Board/Bid rigging and the house deal are going to get him indicted...possibly MicHELLe also, as she was involved.

      "Birds of a feather flock together"...."Bad company corrupts good behavior"...."We are known by the company we keep"....These are wise TRUTHS...yet Hussein was given a free pass. Now this nation will have to endure a fate worse than Nixon and Watergate.

      Is this ....CHANGE We Can Believe In??? I sure HOPE not. America will suffer dearly for electing a CROOK and a FRAUD.

      Anyway...hope all is well with you. This is gonna get NASTY.....

      Allah Akbar....

      NOBAMA!!!

    WILLIAM JEFFERSON BLYTH CLINTON ( WEE WEE WILLIE ) was caught on audio tapes asking his mistress ''.... THEY DON'T HAVE EVIDENCE RIGHT ?"

    He became president.

    HILLARY RODHAM CLINTON was caught on video tapes " BOSNIA TRIP -- SNIPER FIRE ? "

    Obama chose her as Secretary of State in his administration. A WOMAN WHO LIES AND EMBELLISHES may be American representative to the world.

    GEORGE BUSH lied ------ IRAQ WAR.

    BARACK OBAMA lied about HOPE and CHANGE.

    DOES ANY ONE KNOW AN HONEST POLITICIAN ---------- REALLY ?

    • Posted By: Repubssuck @ 12/16/2008 10:54:48 AM

      How depressing it must be to be a member of the Republican Hate Party these days. To be relegated to "Insignificant Other" status must be killing you. This is a step down from even the GOP's former status as UnAmerican Disloyal Opposition. Crawl back up Limbaugh's butt, it's safer for you there.

        I AM OFFICIALLY BACK TO INDEPENDENT.

        I HAD TO REGISTER AS A DEMOCRAT TO VOTE FOR OBAMA AND AGAINST HILLARY " THE WITCH " CLINTON.

        JOHN MC CAIN AND WICKED WITCH PALIN WERE NOT AN OPTION.

    • Posted By: Repubssuck @ 12/16/2008 10:23:50 AM

      If America is stupid, then how did we elect one of the most intellegent Presidents ever in Barack Obama. Deciding Americans are stupid based on an imbecile like this creep is seriously flawed.

        Of course, if he reads your hate-filled, intolerant, filth-spewing, ranting and raving posts, one could understand why he thinks you are stupid. I certainly do.

    Our Obligatory Objections Over Obama's Obvious Obscene Obsessions. PART 1.
    By: Jordan C. Fan, Prophet Of Environment.

    Since Barack Obama is the bigggest villian of all time, It is cetainly our obligation to expose his criminal acts. By doing that the Republican can regain its leadership of the USA. Whoever did that effectively should become the leader of the Republican Party. The following are some of the crimes committed by Obama:


    (1) Black Got To Be Rich Illegally - Blagojevich and Obama Corruption Scandal. Even before Obama start office, his corruptions have begun. Just wait until Obama step into his office, he will rob all the White people of all they have. Blagojerich or "Blac got to be rich" illegally or criminally should well be Obama's campaign slogan.

    (2) Obama has conspired with his supportors especially Black to cause the crash of the housing and stock market bring the Great Depression II just to get elected.

    (3) Obama is worse than Hitler, he is planning a holcaust for White and Asian people.

    Obama must be impeached from politic at all cost.

    More Obama criminal expose will come later. Or you can add to all the crimes committed by Obama.

    Those members of the GOP party of Hate are on the outside looking in. Their opinions are insignificant and irrelevant. Who cares what they say today, tomorrow or ever for that matter? If they want a voice, why not turn inward and join some of the groups they encourage and pander to, like the KKK and the Neo-nazis. Without the support of these and other hate groups they would cease to exist. Repeat the mantra that those like Dick Morris and Sean Hannity have given you. Hate..Hate is Good...Hate Works...Hate! Hate! Hate!

    Those who challenge the validity of Barack Obama???s natural born citizenship and/or try to connect him and/or his staff to the Illinois governor???s problems not only demonstrate an avoidance of being rationally honest and a total absence of any mature recognition of reality but also display a desperation fed by a blind and irresponsible bias which neglects accepting that every indication to date is the Barack Obama team being assembled gives us real hope for overcoming the drastic, reckless and self-indulgent behavior that has resulting in the current severe problems created by the neoconservative focus over the last eight years. Extreme conservatism, including the ???trickle down??? rationalization, has much the same characteristics as is found in illegal pyramid schemes. They are equal in that only a few people really benefit, that they are driven by self-interests, are infected with greed and dishonesty, are promoted by attraction to people???s self-interests and greed, and depend on taking advantage of the majority. The fraud they can perpetrate results in the collapse of the infected systems (as seen in corporate corruption, Wall Street meltdown, financial industry meltdown, auto industry collapse, religious extremism,,,) and can eventually even bring down the total economy (what we are close to today). Without the regulations, enforcement, controls, checks and balances needed to keep aggressive conservative methodology from being the run-away service of the powerful few, greed, dishonesty and self-indulgence naturally take over. As long as the focus is on total deregulation, completely open and fair-trade markets and on the unchecked pursuit of benefit for Special Interests and a select few, without real protection, consideration and concern for the majority, the natural result will be what we are experiencing today. This criticism is neither liberal thinking advocating a large ???tax and spend??? government giving to a dependent population nor is it advocating protectionism but rather is pragmatism, is simply recognizing the reality that demands moderate conservative/liberal positions and a centrist thinking that actually benefits everyone. The other choice is to continue down the road we have been on, with only very costly temporary delays, ending eventually in catastrophe.

    The special committee formed should act swiftly to remove Gov. Blagojevich from office. Though qualified, Atty. General Madigan should have just waited in the wings instead of getting hastily involved, as her complaint isn???t going to speed up the process of the governor???s resignation in the least bit. The Illinois state legislature should have put a 1 week time limit on the naming of a successor to our US Senate seat upon its vacancy. It allows for a smooth transition of power and eliminates ???time??? for corrupt scheming to take place???It???s time for Lt. Governor Patrick Quinn to assume the helm of governor of Illinois, select his new Lt. Governor, name the new US Senator, and get back to business. Changing Illinois lawwith regards to the governor's power to select the US Senate replacement doesn't eliminate the chances of future acts of corruption and only adds a costly special election to Illinois taxpayers. The Illinois legislature needs to be more proactive
    at removing any elected official that has lost their ability to effectively serve the needs of the State of Illinois. He should have been recalled or censured long before now...God Bless America
