Remember why Blagojevich is out
Just like newspapers must always refer to an arrested individual as "allegedly" robbing a bank, murdering someone, driving while intoxicated, etc., I propose that newspapers follow a similiar line with any and every article that mentions Rod Blagojevich.
That disclaimer should refer to him as the Illinois ex-governor who was voted 114-1 for impeachment by the Illinois House and removed from office in a 59-0 vote by the Illinois Senate.
As Mr. Blagojevich ponders a return to politics Illinois voters must remember why he left politics. And it wasn't for health or family reasons.
