George Ryan: Definitely Not Nolan Ryan



George Ryan has been found guilty on all counts in his recent bribery, etc., trial. I had thought he was guilty from the beginning, but in the courts, anything can happen. Fortunately, justice was served, and the courts didn't throw us a knuckle ball.

As a downstate conservative (isn't that redundant?), I am hoping that more people like Bill Mitchell step up and make a name for themselves in statewide politics. We need conservative politicians who will support conservative values while exemplifying those values in their actions at the same time.

I'm sure our liberal counterparts will pounce all over this story as another "COC" story, but as VP has put on his website, the definite of "COC" is defined by Chicago politics.

What I find curious is that none of our liberal blogger(s) have made any statements concerning Rod and his scandalous activities. Should he be brought up on charges, too? I wouldn't mind my house being powerwashed, too, but then again, I haven't contributed anything to his campaign. I guess I'm out of luck with Blago.
