hair today gone tomorrow.
Usually disappears.
while those around you are losing theirs...you've got damn good Krazy Glue (TM)
He's the hair apparent.
...Donald Trump!
BlagoElvis has left the building...Some people don't care whether he steps down or is impeached so long as he leaves office. The method they say is just splitting hairs.
well i still have my hair to i just cant remeber wich box its stored in!
Q: What do you get when you cross Blago and a Stetson Hat?
A: Dirty Hairy
Blago still has a few hard core supporters who stand behind him religiously who say speaking out against him amounts to hairesy.
Looks like a sneaky used car salesman.
....dresser, but i swear it just moved...
Hairrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrs Blaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagy!
sorry. Too much schnappppppppppppppppppps!
Too bad--he'd make a great Halloween costume.
Everytime I look at him I think of Clint Eastwood saying: "Right turn Clyde."
Clyde's better lookin' than this.

Now maybe if Clyde shaved his ass and was taught to walk backwards.
Hairpy New Year!
there was a time when my hair looked similar to his but it was the 80's so nothing I did back then can be held against me now.
I have written two columns supporting Gov. Rod Blagojevich and my latest can be found by going to this link, http://www.marymacelveen.com/blog/_archives/2... To those who are looking to take him down let me ask you this: Did you treat former President Bill Clinton the same when he too faced his own trials and tribulations? Did you call for him to resign? Did you demand that he be impeached? Now U.S. Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald states that he may wait three months to indict Blagojevich. Does anyone feel he jumped the gun?
Best,
Mary MacElveen!
Apples and oranges. What's that saying? The path to hell is paved with good intentions. Fitz did what he thought needed to be done. In order for him to arrest a sitting Governor by knocking on his door at 6am and putting him in handcuffs instead of going through the usual channels, something must have been terribly wrong. I think it might go way beyond just trying to sell a seat in the U.S. Senate. Even the editor of my local newspaper said that everyday Blagojevich stays in the Governors' chair is like 'the death of a thousand cuts' for the State of Illinois and it's citizens. I have to agree. There is no way he can effectively govern from this point on. Personally I never did trust from the day I laid on eyes on him. I had feeling that something was just not right about him and now it seems my suspicions were correct. His tenure as Governor has been surrounded by scandal for three years. His arrest served to set the suspicions of his impropriety in stone. The fact that he is choosing to go on as if nothing has happened also confirms my suspicion that he is a few bricks short of the proverbial load.
Yes, he deserves his day in court. But, the difference is that there was a mountain of evidence that Blagojevich was indisputably in the center a conspiracy to commit a crime, and it would appear to any reasonable person that his intention to act on that conspiracy was imminent. Fitzgerald's move thwarted that intent. Personally, I think that turned out for the good of the country.
However bone-headed and stupid was Clinton's behavior, he committed no crime and the impeachment attempt was purely an effort at political assasination...the culmination of a relentless effort that began before he was even sworn in for his first term.
There is no equivalence between these two situations.
And best back atchu...
It's Illinois, who do you have to call to take this hairwad out!?
Well, I've still managed to keep my nose and ear hairs.
I'm doing them up to look like a john bolton mustache.
That's not hair on Blagojackov's head. It's the pelt of a dead bunny. Heza member of the Hare Club for Men.
Poor little bunny....
Blago reminds me a lot of Jack Lord.
Blago has a think for the inappropriate literary reference, I think. Back when I lived in IL, he tried to relate budget pork to Casablanca ("shocked---shocked!!"). Being a vintage cinema fan I kind of cringed even then. "Don't drag Claude Rains into this please... -_-;;;"
