Roland Burris

There is one thing that has baffled me recently. How in the world can former state Attorney General Roland Burris sleep at night? There is something to be said about someone who accepts an appointment from someone (that someone being Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich) when that someone is under investigation for bribery for that position they were being appointed to. I am not saying that Roland Burris is not qualified for the job, but I am saying he should have said, thanks, but no thanks, I will wait for everything to clear up and try to get appointed by whatever other body would get your (Governor Rod Blagojevich's) appointing ability. This whole incident just screams Illinois politics and when Burris is surrounded by a tainted legacy, he will know why.
