Blagojevich? Who's next?

Blagojevich Has Been Removed From Office and I do not feel an ounce of pride for our justice system. In fact I want to vomit. What kind of people are we for having let Bush finish his term yet we applaud to the Impeachment of a Governor who has not taken any lives? Surely Blagojevich deserved what he got. He abused his power many times, lied and got caught.
During the Bush administration, Democrats had no guts while to day Republicans continue their politics of hypocrisy, such as Sen. Dan Duffy who said "testimony shows that his abuse of power has been going on for years and that many people in this government and in this chamber had to have known about it."
Let me hope that same Dan Duffy and his gang will agree with me that Bush deserves to be arrested for war crimes while I applaud NOT on what happened today.

I fully agree with this comment. As one columnist who stood up for the former governor while others tried him in the media, what astonishes me the most is that he was the one impeached...Yet, yet, House Speaker, Nancy Pelosi stated any impeachment of now former Pres. Bush was off the table once the Democrats took over in the 2006 mid-term elections. Anyone who celebrates Blagojevich's removal from office forgets about the rule of law which states everyone is presumed innocent under it and they are only found guilty if the evidence proves so by a jury of their peers.

Best,
