In another
stomach twisting nasty example of double standards in the United States Legal
System, disgraced former Illinois governor Rod Blagojevich has had his stay in
the real world, before he has to report to prison extended by his team of
lawyers. I do hope that he sends them a Christmas card and perhaps a fruit
basket, before it is far more than he really does in fact deserve for his
crimes. Especially with that 14 year sentence that he was given, which was
disgracefully short given the charges that he had.
Blagojevich
To Report to Prison on March 15, 2012.
I would say it baffles me, but it
kind of doesn’t, how politicians in the United States and really if you think
about it, around the world, do in fact get away with pretty much anything. Only
the ones are really stupid enough to get caught, like the disgraced former
Illinois Governor are getting slapped on the wrist. These corruption charges
that Blagojevich got, if this is what we hear about, think about what we don’t
hear about, with other politicians.
Again, you think that Johnny
Convict would get such consideration, if he boo-hooed about his family having a
hard life. No, because he would be thrown right into jail, he would not get his
time extended that he gets to spend before he heads right into prison.
Just disgraceful, he’s a
criminal, a con artist, and still a politician, as he obviously politicked
himself more freedom. All on the alleged claims that he needs to help his
family move into their new home. What a crock? Anyone else, they wouldn’t have
offered the consideration, but far be it for politicians to get fair and even
treatment.
Fourteen years, Rod Blagojevich
should consider himself rather lucky that it wasn’t far more. Given the charges
laid upon him, fourteen years in prison is a drop in the hat.
Justice is blind and also rather
biased apparently. That’s the lesson that many of us learn right now. Again,
people boo-hoo about how his family is going to have a hard life, being brought
down by their posh, rich, high end lifestyle, to the common man. The horror of
it all, the horror.
No one put a gun to his head and
forced Blagojevich to do the things he did. He is a criminal and has many
people blinded to his crime. He will be a politician to the very end.
A happy article as we continue
our Christmas countdown later, devoid of any talk of politics.
