As the state’s chief law enforcement officer, Lisa Madigan performs the customary pat down before allowing Rod into the Thompson Center.

AG Madigan unsuccessfully tries to wrap her arms around the embattled governor’s ego-inflated delusions of grandeur. “Couldn’t do it,” she later stated. “Not even Inspector Gadget could get his go-go-gadget arms around that amount of psychosis…”

Future gubenatorial candidate and future federal prison inmate engage in a little tense but polite air kissing.
Lisa: Thanks a lot Rod. Anything I do as governor will look great after what you have done.
The still delusional Rod: Lisa, Lisa, I didn’t know you cared! But, you still don’t know the half of it.

This is the most uncomfortable I’ve ever been. Except that time those wiley federal escorted me out of my house. Dag nabbit, those guys and their pranks.
Huh? You mean I really got arrested? I thought that was MJM pulling a fast one. Perhaps I should start to temper my public statements.

So what you do, is you put a little gel in, but not too much. Then you tease it with a pick exactly 27 times. No more. No less, and pay attention now because this is important. You have to hold your head nearly upside down. I’d say at about a hundred and sixty five degree angle, when you blow dry it. That’s how you get it lookin’ this good.

(FUTURECAM EXCLUSIVE) Seeing that the governor had escaped the bailiffs following pronouncement of the guilty verdicts, valiant Attorney General Madigan tackled and wrestled Blagojevich to the ground after he attempted to flee by jogging away.
Comment by anonymice Monday, Jan 12, 09 @ 3:00 pm
Last year at Halloween, in an attempt to frighten her husband Rod, Patti Blagojovich dressed up like Lisa Madigan. She forgot that Rod thinks everyone is his friend. So, instead of the intended girlie shriek she wanted, Patti ended up with f*****g gratitude instead.
Comment by Pot calling kettle Monday, Jan 12, 09 @ 3:48 pm
This is all Jesse Jrs. fault for starting all this hugging stuff during the convention. Probably every democrat in the state has one of these types of pictures of them with the governor thanks to him.
