Senator Burris

It's official, Dick Cheney just swore-in Roland Burris as the newest U.S. Senator. Score one for Blagojevich.

all that matters is he is black.

we all know it but we can only say it at amspec, nr, american con, without feeling 21st century guilt.

I wonder about Burris' reelection chances, especially if (as seems likely) Blago gets kicked out of office. The stain of Blago will splash all over Burris.

blago is white, will be removed from office.
burris, being black, will be re-elected. get with it guys.
dont get stranded on the bridge to the 21st century.
