The Real Housewives of Crook County

by Michelle Malkin

Blago-gate has brought us something even juicier: The Real Housewives of Crook County, Illinois. The public may be wearying of indicted Democratic Gov. Rod Blagojevich and the Chicago boys' club, but the conniving and ambitious women behind the scenes of the corruption scanda ...

Ma'am;...You seem to be suggesting that the Obamas are corrupt... What you suggest, I will say...We do not get to vote on any person in America who does not show himself or herself to be amenable to the will of wealth, and accepting of the status quo... We do not have kings or lords in this land, but we have institutions of finance, education, and religion that makes men of power and government out of the same mold...Unless politicians show themselves corruptible they have no chance, have no money behind them, and never get the opportunity to stand for election... If Mr. Obama showed himself on the auction block with Mr. Rezko, it is like the Clintons on the auction block with cattle futures... It is not the kiss of death, but the key to success; and it is what we demand, and what we allow... We make elections as expensive as they are by putting the public's airwaves in private hands... For profit people are elected... With money they have their voice, and their access to the voters... The government has franking privilages, and yet it is the money betting on a sure thing that puts them over the top...It is this dealing with the devil, which we see in the construction of the cabinate of empowering the old hat, old idea, old school in almost every detail where corruption is most evident... We do not have kings and lords, but in this land we do not need them... The rich, the old money, the old time religion has their way; and only revolution will sweep them all away for good and all... I do not want to see it so much as avoid it; but what choice do the people have??? The monster can change all but its own behavior... Leaders must be proved rotten to have a chance to lead... Where do the rotten lead but to more rot??? Thanks...Sweeney
