Why isn't Blah, Blah, Blago in a mental hospital?
Mrs R would (and rightly so) have me committed in a heartbeat if I went as far off the rails as he's gone.

2. Funny you called him "Blah, Blah"
In 2006, when he ran for re-election. There was a group that put up stickers on stop signs, that said under the "STOP" "Judy blah-blah Toepinka"

LOL, that was funny, thanks for sparking that memory.

He's diluted, drunk on power, and has serious illusions of grandeur, but he ain't crazy.

3. Half the politicians in the country would have to be committed.
Of course most of them would be Republicans, especially the sociopaths like Karl Rove and our last President.

4. He's NOT OFF THE RAILS.
He's explaining his case. Listen to him or don't.

5. Yuh-huh. "Instead of dealing with the Illinois State Senate, I think I'll go to
New York and get on some talk shows."

Way to face reality, right there.

6. Standing up for yourself is not a mental illness.

8. You can't be committed for just being nuts. You have to be a danger to yourself &/or others
