   What would we ever do without the sheer brilliance of our academic community?

   And now the Senate has a comedy writer in the mix to make it all just as peachy as this ethics poohbah.

   Maybe Rev Wright was on to something with his spewing of you know what.

   BLAGO is a BLACK EYE to CHICAGO POLITICS… Ethics classes are indeed needed… The CHICAGO WAY will teach employees HOW NOT TO GET CAUGHT…

   Now, members of Blago’s staff are conducting ethics classes for state workers.

   No, seriously.

   If you want to best learn how to protect your home from theft, consult a former or current burgular.

   Perhaps the classes are on indictment avoidance.

   The “Integritas Institute” at UI-C…HAAHAAAA

   I think I’d trust a degree from the Bosley Institute of Hair Restoration first.

   Thanks Marathon Pundit for nice hot steaming cup of irony this morning!

   I have obtained a copy of their lecture. Here it is in its entirety.

   Why don’t we have the very knowledgeable “B.J.” Clinton teach a class on avoiding SEXUAL ETHICS problems with subordinates, co-workers, and interns? And how to properly “treat” women in the “workplace”–aka Oval Office.
   ***
   Or maybe Willie Sutton on how to avoid robbery problems in banks?
   ***
   Or maybe Adolf Hitler on proper treatment of minorities and political opponents?
   ***
   Possibly HAMAS could field some experts on how to properly treat those of other religions–especially the JUICES.
   ***
   Remember–it takes one to know one!

    I may sue him for a new laptop. Mine suddenly has apple juice all over it.

    Hey Padre, you DO know you can go to hell for lying too, don’t you?

    If Zimbabwe can chair the UN Commission on Sustainable Development, then why not this?

    It makes perfect sense to me. You must know how the system works in order to game it. Boxers don’t enter the ring to face an opponent, without first doing research on the other fighter.

    Expect the Illinois Democrats to start using semantics, and wordsmithing to deflect scrutiny on their corrupt infrastructure. Sorry, but even bleach at this point will not remove that stain. It has sat too long, and is set too deeply to be removed cosmetically.

    Politicians in the various Illinois state houses would be well advised to wear safety glasses in the coming months because of all the fingers that will be flying. Perhaps flailing would be a better word.

    So is that where that expression comes from? “Those that can, do. Those that can’t, teach.”

    Perhaps this genius could be appointed Washington’s first “Comic Laureate”?

    Perhaps the good reverend has been spending his time with fellow faculty memeber Bill Ayres and has thus misplaced his sense of humor and now finds everything about America just too darn depressing.

    I saw an ethics book today that was written by Peter Singer.
    He and Blago should teach the class together.

    Perhaps Singer and Kevorkian could collaborate, too.
