Finally they'll toss this guy in the clink where he belongs and get him OUT of our faces. Be nice to get away from the "Of COURSE I'm innocent, everyone else is conspiring against me" spews at last.

One more piece of trash taken out.

More to come in November 2012.

Jury Convicts Blagojevich on Nearly All Corruption Counts at Retrial

Published June 27, 2011
Associated Press

CHICAGO -- A jury has convicted Rod Blagojevich of nearly all the corruption charges against him, including trying to sell or trade President Obama's old Senate seat.

Jurors delivered their verdicts Monday after deliberating nine days.

Blagojevich had faced 20 charges, including the Senate seat allegation and that he schemed to shake down executives for campaign donations. He was convicted on all charges regarding the Senate seat.

He testified for seven days, denying wrongdoing. Prosecutors said he lied and the proof was on FBI wiretaps. Those included a widely parodied clip in which Blagojevich calls the Senate opportunity "f------ golden."

Jurors in his first trial deadlocked on all but one charge, convicting Blagojevich of lying to the FBI.

Blagojevich already faces up to five years for the lying conviction.

Well, you do have to give him credit for having "class". When he listened to himself swearing on tape, he told the jurors that he was a F****** jerk for talking like that.
 
Its a damn fact , god your pathetic.

Libby was found guilty, LIbby was sent to Jail, Bush got him off.

President Bush did not pardon Libby...he commuted the 30 months of jail time that Libby was sentenced to, but left the rest of his sentence intact...as well as his record.

Thanks for clarifying the FACTS for "emptypockets".

Add to that the fact that the charges, trial, and conviction of Libby was a sham, a scam, and nothing more than another manufactured left wing character assassination of a good and decent man.
