Who can forget the Governor Rod Blagojevich debacle? Now, Senator Jesse Jackson Jr. is biting the
dust, having decided to plead guilty to converting $750,000 in campaign funds
to his personal use. "It shows
hubris and arrogance that a politician sees his campaign coffers as his to
spend as he likes," said Jeff Cramer, who as an assistant U.S. attorney in
Chicago worked on multiple corruption cases. "With these kinds of charges,
I cannot imagine him not going to prison ... for 3 1/2 or 4 1/2 years."

Like father, like son?
Chicago has been known to produce two-bit hoods, thugs and Mafia Dons
for decades. And where does Obama and a
sizeable number of his staff hail from? And
who did they associate with before they headed off for the big time in
Washington? Guilt by association or
association by guilt?
TODAY’S QUERIES & ANSWERS:
Q. How fast was that asteroid traveling that just passed
Earth? (Lou Ellen ~ Santa Clara, CA)
A. About 28,000 kilometers per hour, or 17,500 mph. That’s slightly faster than Obama can lie
while using a teleprompter.
Q. Who is this Ben Carson everybody’s talking about? (Massiel ~ Quartz Hill, CA)
A. He’s a nationally recognized neurosurgeon, whose cutting
remarks, (pardon the silver-tongued play
on words), in front of President Obama packed more of a wallop than anything
Obama has ever said. Get on the Internet,
look for and playback that speech before the National Prayer Breakfast. He is now the talk of conservative America…
even more so than Marco Rubio.
Q. Now that the Triumph drama is over, what ever happened
with the Costa Concordia? (Lorenzo ~ Red Bluff, CA)
A. It’s still lying on its side off the coast of
Tuscany. They’re spending more than a
few million lire in the complicated task of building an underwater platform next
to it, righting it onto that platform and then moving it to some port where it
will be dismantled and sold for scrap. I
heard Obama is going to nominate the Captain to be Secretary of the Navy.
TODAY’S QUOTE:
“I was like a boy playing on the
sea-shore, and diverting myself now and then finding a smoother pebble or a
prettier shell than ordinary, whilst the great ocean of truth lay all
undiscovered before me.” ~ Sir Isaac Newton
