Continuing his Descent into Madness Blago Compares Self to Ghandi, King, Mandela

Gov. Rod Blagojevich has apparently decided that the best defense is a televised offense.  Rather than attend his impeachment proceedings by the Illinois Senate, which begin Monday, he has planned to embark on a media blitz.  From the Chicago Sun Times:

Blagojevich is not going to participate in his defense because he says the rules are rigged against him. He will not be in Springfield for his trial; instead he will be doing nationally televised interviews.

The governor told NBC that the state Senate trial will be so unfair, he could bring in “15 angels and 20 saints led by Mother Theresa” to testify on his behalf and “it wouldn’t matter.”

No word on whether he’ll be traveling on horseback.

Nuttier than a squirrel turd. I hear he and Mrs. B are doing “The View.” That’s gonna be some priceless TV, I predict.

Wow. This could be more disturbing than The Emperor Jones (I just saw the Wooster Group’s famous production of the O’Neill play a couple weeks ago—Kate Valk was great, but even she didn’t channel the crazy like Blago!)

I’ll be interested in seeing his reaction if he’s actually removed from office.  Will he insist that since it was “unfair,” it’s not valid, and ignore it?  Now that will be entertaining.

@sunwakan, of course his refusal to participate in his own impeachment means that he will refuse to recognize the outcome’s legitimacy. 

I’m looking forward to him being tazered and hogtied before being rolled out of his office in a shopping cart.

It’s just amazing that there’s a governor that’s like Palin—only worse.

And I am going to violate my own “no Elizablecch Hasslebitch pixels on my TV” rule and TIVO The View that day.

What do you want to bet that Mrs. B will remain backstage and yell her input to Blago from the wings?  “You tell them they can kiss my rich white ASS honey!”

Marindenver, do you mean he’ll be traveling on horseback NAKED, just like Lady Godiva?

Well he’s got the hair for it!  But I don’t know about the coyness.

That’s gonna be some priceless TV, I predict.

No kidding!  I’m gonna be like Allan and break my no Hasselbitch rule too and TIVO this baby.

More than one observer here in Illinois thinks that our wacky governor exhibits all the classic signs of narcissistic personality disorder.  Gotta say, I’m in complete agreement.

narcissistic personality disorder

This makes sense. Yesterday I commented that he didn’t seem the type to torture animals, or people, like Bush did, thus he didn’t quite seem psychopathic or sociopathic. Narcissistic makes perfect sense; the hair, the constant working out ... a politician seeking adulation.

He needs his own teevee show.  I actually appreciate his craziness.  It’s done more to prove Obama didn’t have anything to do with Blago more then anything else could have possibly.

He needs his own teevee show

With that hair, that shamelessness and that urgent financial need, he shall have one! I imagine that any number of C-list channels are working something up for him as we speak.
