Springfield Illinois- Rod Blagojevich, the former governor of Illinois, was sentenced earlier today to 14 years in federal prison. Blagojevich was convicted on 18 felony corruption charges, the most famous of all was, his effort to sell or trade the Senate seat that President Obama left behind when he moved to the White House. The prosecution claimed that the outcome of the trail was nearly exactly what they had hoped it would be.
The real reason I am writing this breaking news piece is to shed light on the lesser charges of the 18 felony corruption convictions. Rod Blagojevich and his lawyer were able to slide a couple issues away from the forefront of the trial. If you put your thinking cap on you begin to see that there were a couple of charges that no one had been talking about. They are just as important as the other ones. They are important in establishing character and basically how solid of a person he is.
His hair… HIS HAIR!
I imagine that I am not the only one to notice the fluffy goodness of his hair, but goodness,
Am I the only person in the free or for that matter unfree world that looks at this guys hair and instantly have an aneurysm? I mean it, I can actually feel the blood shoot off my brain. What the heck is wrong with his dang hair!!?? It’s like the Donald’s but, just, worse! SOME HOW!
The lawsuit that was filled against Rod Blagojevich had more than 31 different charges, at least 12 of them had to do with that mop on his head. Sheesh!
After the media frenzy died down I got a chance to meet with the judge. Judge James Zagel was a pleasant man and seemed relieved. I asked, “are you happy to be on to the next case?”
Zagle was looking down, eating a home made tuna fish sandwich. He took a bit, looked me in the eye, finished the bit, swallowed and stated, if I had to see his hair for one more day, I was going to hold him in contempt of court and send him straight to the barber.
