| State senators hear recount testimonyFri, 09 Jan 2009 14:52:12 -0800 by UpTakeVideoSecretary of State Mark Ritchie delivered a statement and took questions from the Minnesota State Senate's State and Local Government Operations and Oversight Committee. Several Republican members of the Committee raised questions casting shadows of doubt on the recount process. Sen. Dick Day (R-Owatanna) questioned the need for a canvassing board to count improperly cast ballots, adding that he does not care "if you're disenfranchised or not."Sec. Ritchie emotionally fired back by recalling his elderly grandmother, "sharp as a tack until the day she died," who could not fill in a circle due to shaking.Ritchie defended the process and expressed disappointment in elected officials who did not do more to quell "false" criticisms of both state officials and the recount process from some segments of the local and national media.

| Impeach Blago or Institutionalize Him? Hell, He Needs Both!Fri, 09 Jan 2009 14:01:28 -0800 by LadyCop212Blagos much-anticipated post-impeachment speech was nothing less than surreal. Unbelievable. In this case, I agree with Sheps editorializing questions over the audio (I usually dont care for Shep, but at least he was asking the questions that should have been asked). One thing Shep said that did make me laugh was where was that guy from Iraq, that journalist from Iraq who threw the shoe?is he available? HAHAHAWhat an absolute certifiable lunatic this Blago is. I feel sorry for the folks of Illinois. No, wait a minuteI dont. They continuously vote these morons in, and the rest of America watches and laughs - rightfully so. Any person in their right mind who lives in that state should demand the ouster of the lot, and start over from scratch; all the way from the Community Organizers to the Senators. Dispatch them all. Voters AND elected officials in Illinois are apparently certifiably insane. And now, so are the 52% of Americans who voted a fellow Chicago politician as our next president.God help us all.
