"We are hoping and praying that they will not be able to deny what the Lord has ordained," Roland Burris said. "I am not hesitating. I am now the junior Senator from the state of Illinois. Some people may want to question that and that is their prerogative."

I never had... ordination... with that man, Mr. Burris!

what the Lord has ordained

Blago has a nice head of hair but this is carrying "thank you" just a little too far.

Divine right of Senators? That's a new one.

So he's at least got the GOP Senators locked in. I mean, who are they to deny God's Will, after God selected Dubya?

You can't make this kind of shit up!

So Embarrassing

buris,franken or caroline? i do believe the governor has made the better choice,you know.

Libs are picking on the black man again when he steps off their plantation.

God moves in mysterious ways.

Oh, isn't that just too special? First we are stuck with a governor who is going to end up making license plates for the state of Illinois and then we have someone who thinks that same governor is G**! Uh, Mr. Burris? That's ROD Bladgo...whatever! ROD, Mr. Burris! ROD!

God ordained this funny little drama for me to watch while my country goes to shit, my savings are evaperating, and the democrats are taking power. The lord just wants to keep us occupied untill the Super Bowl.

He'll be playing the race card, the God card, and any other card he can think of.

Let's watch the republicans bad mouth one of "god's own choices".

This should be good!

Are you fucking kidding me? I just got off the phone with God and he wants nothing to do with politics, Blago or any other Neandrethal happenings on earth.

FF for nemo--;o)

--------

Where did they get this guy?

Is tomorrow the day to bust thru the door to the senate floor?

Will c-span be there?

And that guy who said Reid was acting like Bull Connor--

Heard of Bullshit and Bull Durham.

So I had to google him.

Is tomorrow the day to bust thru the door to the senate floor?

Will c-span be there?

Actually, God told him to march around the capitol building seven times, naked, while playing a saxophone, and the wall of senators blocking him will crumble. Well, he thinks it was God, but it was really a 14-year old prank caller.

Maybe dems can dig up that great patriot George Wallace D-Alabama to stand at the Seanate door with an ax to stop a poor black guy from sitting down inside.

I'm sure you understand what a cynical race obsessed son of a bitch you are, so I'll leave it at that.

BETELG,

The answer to your question is: Vietnam War

You seem to be off your game tonite, did you forget to drink Barry's magic Kool Aid?

I JUST MADE A PHONE CALL TO THE LORD. HE WAS VERY ANGRY TOLD ME "BLAGO IS A SON OF A BITCH" AND HE HANG UP.....

Actually Wallace had a change of heart. Maybe it was getting shot. But his later terms as governor where very different in terms of race relations.

I think it's time for Reid to get his comeuppance. The Republicans should be solidly behind Burris, and filibuster until he's seated.

FW-
re: The answer to your question is: Vietnam War

What?

(Forgive me if you think that your charm resides in never making any fucking sense)

Proves that it's not only Republicans who are batshit crazy about religion. Either this guy is mentally unstable because he believes in and invokes a deity that he cannot possibly know exists or he is a hypocrite playing the God card. Two more reasons to add to Blago's pick as to why he should be booted out.

If God does exist what makes this guy think that he cares about Illinois politics any more than he cares when an NFL player kicks a field goal or scores a touchdown. We already know he ignored the pleas for rain to fall on Obama in Denver.

Maybe Burris can borrow Palin's witch doctor, get him to come down to DC and say a few prayers for him.

Yikes, I'm being very unPC tonight.

If he was half black you pant-pissers would give him a tongue bath, but because he's a full blown black (not quite Bernie Mac black, but close) you're afraid of him.

because he's a full blown black .... you're afraid of him.

Neighbor Please!!! Not a single one of you trolls who post this really believe it. Aren't you guys the ones who are always complaining when a minority self-servingly plays the race card?

The people that play the raqce card are called "liberals". You were here for the Dem Primary and the Presidential Election, so I don't know why you'd need that explained to you.
Now the race card is being played against you puds and you have no idea how to react to it. It must be the republicans fault...

If they want to stop a black man from getting in, there is only one senator they need to call...Robert KKK Byrd. The Dems have all kinds of weapons in the war on Black Senators.

What am I ordained for? Just to be a shithead as far as I can tell

101, you're making even less sense than usual. Who the hell is afraid? Afraid of a clown who invokes God just because he was appointed by another clown? I don't get the sense of fear that you seem to feel.

Democrat, black, I don't give a hoot. He's just a nauseating politician who should step aside, just like Blago. Neither deserves an ounce of respect.

I just think that its pretty ridiculous to cry racism in this instance...

the governor is in trouble for trying to be bribed no nominate a replacement for Obama's senate seat... the last thing that governor should be doing is appointing a replacement. I think that Blagojevich named Burris for cover.

"I think that Blagojevich named Burris for cover."

He's also probably thinking there will be a few blacks on his jury, and he wants to be remembered as the governor who appointed a black guy.

of course that's also implied in my #31, Joe.

There was a thread last week about this when all the applogist for the dems were saying how Harry was so tough and going to stick to his guns and keep him out. A few said that Harry would fold as soon as the race card was played. We will see how it ends.

Looks like everybody is playing a card on this one. Blago picks a black guy so that makes it harder for the Dems to challenge the pick, and the candidate says it was ordained by God that puts him in with the repubs.

From what I have heard, the guy is well respected. Its too bad that being picked by Blago has tainted him. The Senate should seat him based on his own merits and the people of Illinois can then decide if they want to keep him two years from now. I don't expect he can do too much damage between now and then.

Yeah, just a measly two years as only one of 100 senators in the United States. Who cares?

Unless he gets in via election fraud we don't want him!

Senate secretary turns away Burris

WASHINGTON - The secretary of the Senate on Tuesday turned Roland Burris away from taking the seat vacated by President-elect Barack Obama.

Burris left the Capitol offices of the secretary, Nancy Erickson, after a meeting of about 20 minutes.

In a bizarre rainy-day scene on the Capitol grounds as lawmakers awaited the gaveling of the 111th Congress into session, Burris stood amid a huge throng of reporters and television cameras and declared that he had been informed that "my credentials are not in order and will not be accepted."

The Senate sure is lucky that the IL Secretary of State hasn't certified Burris' appointment. Had he done so, they'd actually have to confront this pick head on. For now, they can use that technicality.

Wow. And he's consulting his lawyers. This is what I call entertainment. And to think the Feature Presentation doesn't air until after the 20th...

"The Senate sure is lucky that the IL Secretary of State hasn't certified Burris' appointment. "

Nobody in their right mind would want to touch this with a 10 foot car antenna.

WASHINGTON - The secretary of the Senate on Tuesday turned Roland Burris away from taking the seat vacated by President-elect Barack Obama.

Call Cynthia McKinney on how to get thru the chamber and get seated.

Didn't Ole Harry ask that no blacks be appointed from Illinois? Was this before or after the Blago scandal was uncovered? Also was it before or after Bobby Rush condemned any pick from Blago?

and this is all from the dems...those liberal dems who are smarter than all of us on the right and who are compassionate and allknowing in the ways of a diverse world

lets see

harry ried said....dont send no nigras to the senate

and he wont be seated even though THE governor of Illinois is INNOCENT OF everything and guilty of NOTHING........

and election fraud is written ALL OVER the election in minn.
I am so glad that obama is the president elect so that we will all live in peace and harmony........

and the question again

how in the WORLD are the dems going to be able to keep him from being seated?
and doesnt this trigger a wish that the custom of the gov picking a replacement needs to be looked at

in THE PEOPLES HOUSE, no one serves without being elected...........

Well, if it's all "over the radio" then you can provide me with a legitimate source link?

He's talking about THIS:

Days before Gov. Blagojevich was charged with trying to sell President-elect Barack Obama's U.S. Senate seat to the highest bidder, top Senate Democrat Harry Reid made it clear who he didn't want in the post: Jesse Jackson, Jr., Danny Davis or Emil Jones.

Rather, Reid called Blagojevich to argue he appoint either state Veterans Affairs chief Tammy Duckworth or Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan, sources told the Chicago Sun Times.

Sources say Senate majority leader Harry Reid (left) pushed against Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. (center), and suggested Gov. Rod Blagojevich appoint state Veterans Affairs chief Tammy Duckworth (right) to President-elect Obama's vacant Senate seat.

Sources say the Senate majority leader pushed against Jackson and Davis both democratic congressmen from Illinois and against Jones the Illinois Senate president who is the political godfather of President-elect Barack Obama because he did not believe the three men were electable. He feared losing the seat to a Republican in a future election.


www.suntimes.com

The three guys he talks about not wanting are all black. The two women he sugggests as possible replacements are both white. Combine that with the fact that with the subtraction of Obama from the US Senate the body is now entirely empty of African Americans you have the RTs talking point for the week.

Quite frankly Spud thinks Harry Reid has done such a shitty job as leader that he oughta step down in disgrace and if this scandal (which is wot it's ginning up to become) helps make that a reality then Spud is all for it.

Reid, like PeLOUSY and not-so-Fine-kenstein are part of the problem not the solution.

Be Well.

"Unless he gets in via election fraud we don't want him!

HAHAHHAA,a right wing tard claiming election fraud. Your party is in a toilet bowl downward spiral, America has decided to flush you pieces of shit down and start over. Election after election is mandating no more neo-con DUMBSHITS in charge. 8 years of you losers as been enough, game over now go back to fondling some kids, shouting racist remarks, and your closet queer life.

LM

P.S. this Burris dude should have been tossed out as soon as he choose to go all Palin-ily and have banter with some god......crazy bat shit guy regardless of color.

its all over the radio..........

How he got from there to there?

That's pretty easy.

Rush Limbaugh told him.

C'mon, this is Rusty Trombone we're talking about here.

Have you ever known him to have an independent and/or original thought in his entire posting history here?

EVAR?

Be Well.

...so you got sick of republican malfeasances? As usual, the unusual from other wing of the Eagle, democrats new-more-better malfeasances. As James Carville a clintonite pronounced: "scandals come in clusters and 2009 will be one big cluster f@#k", for democrats...I assume.

the guy showed up at his neighbors house with a huge box of fireworks, while trying to sell them, the fireworks accidently went off, the resulting explosion damaged the roof and a piece of timber came crashing down narrowly missing him. he shouted "thank god, god saved my life". The house owner yelled "Oh yeah" then reached for the timber and whacked the idiot in the head so hard it killed him. "Thank God" he yelled!

prayers work!

Why, why, oh my WHY!?!?!? Why the hell is everyone making a BIG DEAL out of this???? IT is fucking simple. Burris CANNOT BE SEATED UNLESS HE IS CERTIFIED BY THE IL SEC OF STATE!!!!! Untill Jesse White certifies the appointment, HE IS NOT APPOINTED!

Well, if he was ordained by God, then God best have a talk with the senate and straighten things out.

THE FUCKING SENATE HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS YOU FUCKING RETARDS!!!!!!! IL Sec Of State Jesse White MUST CERTIFY THE APPOINTMENT BEFORE HE CAN BE SEATED!!!!! WHAT THE FUCK IS SOOOOOOO HARD TO UNDERSTAND ABOUT THIS@!

And accordings to Judge Napolitano The Illinois Secretary of State has no LEGAL grounds to not certify Him.

Larry

Well thats a whole debate we should have had FIRST.

Let's watch the republicans bad mouth one of "god's own choices".

This should be good!

#12 | Posted by COMMONSENSE

The reps don't have to do a thing. The dems have found a pile of shit to dive into.

Charlie Daniels has been hired to play at Burris inaugural ball.

Why are dems against an upity black boy?

"Why are dems against an upity black boy?"

More to the point, why do you think in such terms as "uppity black boy"?

"Posted by fwthom"

Oh, right. Never mind.

Dear Approval Committee

Disapprove this moron with all due haste. If God wants your approval he will himself see to it genius. Next zealot please-one at a time.....

Blagojevich hit the jackpot here. Burris provides falsification of the charge that Blago had the seat up for sale.

Reid was stupid to issue an ultimatum.

Blago is still governor until impeachment or resignation, so Burris is good to go. The SoS could be impeached for failure to certify.

Burris is a little loopy to be invoking god - but that just makes Blago's cover that much better.

Innocent until proven guilty is a very powerful standard.
