Blago

Yesterday, I felt a little weird about Blago getting 14 years. A little uncomfortable. This morning I woke up and realized that there's still a small kernel of a hopeful young man in me, fresh out of college, who thinks maybe law school can make him use the system better to help the common good. That kernel seems indestructible really, or so I hope. I realized that this former governor didn't see things that way, but instead saw a system of money and power to be manipulated. Does that happen all the time? Yes. But, should they also be punished severely? Yes.
