With the eyes of the nation on Burris and Blagojevich, don't forget about another vacant congressional seat of prime importance to the Obama White House--the replacement for Obama's chief of staff, Rahm Emanuel. Learn more about dancing chickens here...

John Kass is a popular columnist at the Chicago Tribune. This is his third column I reported in the past three days. If you missed his last two, here they are again.

January 7, 2009--"John Kass: Senate 'spectacle' goes according to script."

January 8, 2009--"John Kass: Obama serves Reid the Chicago Way."

Thanks, Mike, Joycey, Dalia, Sue, Mary, and Denice for commenting.

Important update: a href="http://newsblogs.chicagotribune.com/clout_st/2009/01/live-blog-of-il.html">Governor Blagojevich was impeached today.

What do you think of this video Sue posted yesterday? View this U-Tube video from CNN here.

I hope these new developments will help us get our Vision First form approved.

Interesting. To some degree, almost all politicians are corrupt. However, Chicago seems to stand tall among most other states in corruption. Many of these politicians believe you have to play the game in order to get elected and maintain your seat. Time will tell if Chicago is able to overcome this legacy...and if Obama is able to do something about it.

Thanks, Aletta and Marion. In Chicago, it's been said, "Vote early and vote often." LOL

And here I am trying to get our Vision First form approved by the Illinois Department of Public Health in the most corrupt state in the nation.

Let's see if honesty, determination, and what's best for the kids wins over corruption, power, and greed.
