My New Congressman (I Hope)

Poor Roland Burris. He really ought not to have gone to Washington, DC. Unfortunate photo op in the rain there, Roy. Blago's mess continues to spread . . . like a cooling puddle of Cho* in the seat of your car.

Via Digby, I see that Tom Geoghegan now has a website up regarding his candidacy for Rahm's and Blago's old Congressional seat. I'm hopeful us Fifth Districters will send a real Progressive to Congress to replace the craven Rahm Emanuel.

* - My term, (usually a verb "to Cho") for the highly unfortunate outcome of the unmet immediate need for bathroom facilities of the seated variety, hilariously described by Margaret Cho.

sounds like you are about to get your wish. Not my wish, I have never liked Roland, but then again, look who appointed him!

I'm no fan of Roland either . . . although he, Blago, and Bobby Rush did make Reid look like even more of a wuss, something I didn't think was possible.

I was referring to the replacement for Rahm, not Barack.
