No Chicagoan can be truly surprised by Blago’s pay-to-play approach to politics. You think he’s the first to try that around here? But the drama of the complaint is undeniable.

Oh my God
Oh my God
Thank you, Lord
Thank you, Rod
Most of all, I give thanks
To our wonderful host Bill
In the past I doubted you
But now I never will
