Blago’s really at home watching Hanna Montana.

And just so he knows how much I dislike him, I shall not look at him. Ever. Blah blah blah Fritchey.

“I told Hoffman like 30 times last night that I needed to be home by nine o’clock. Geez, I can barely keep my eyes open. I wonder what’s for lunch? Grilled cheese, I hope. Then maybe a little nappy nap. And some cake. Chocolate cake. Wow, that Urlacher is a cool guy. I wonder if he likes Elvis? I should ask him, but I think I’ll just rest my eyes…. What?! What?! Oh, no! Did I fall asleep? Standing up? I wonder if I snored again. Oh, man, some chocolate cake will be nice after that nap….”

BO: I think I am going to tackle John, I think I can take him…

Haha! Good one, Rich! (Is anyone else laughing their face off, or is this just another hysterical day in my life.)

Even then, Sen. Obama’s mere presence made Rod sleepy and Fritchey pale.

Rep Fritchy…” And I would like to conclude by thanking the Governor’s office for providing the cardboard cutout, as Blago is too busy rewriting some law.”

BO: Oh gawd, Fritchey has his pants on backwards.
BU: Is that a zipper in the back of his pants?
RB: I ain’t lookin’. This must be a trick. They’re trying to get me to say somethin’ stupid. I ain’t lookin’. And I ain’t sayin’ nothin’!

Sometimes Illinois’s the coldest state, isn’t it? Isn’t it? I remember one time when I was out campaigning in January it was colder than, colder than, colder than the North Pole? Yeah!
So they must mean me when they say Coldest State, Hottest Governor! Yeah, they must!

When Obama talks, it sometimes-kind-of doesn’t bore me, but this is boring, this is why I never go in to work.
