I look forward to seeing the same editorial re-run eight years from now. The only differences will be changing George Ryan into Rod Blagojevich and George Bush into Barack Obama.

Yay for Illinois' string of corrupt politicians. Bring back Jim Edgar, please!

Former Gov Ryan couldn't even say he was sorry for letting the people of Illinois down. Whats the serious illness his wife has - I hear its old age. Well get a life we're
all going to get old and most of us will not age like we're at Disneyland, it will be like our grandparents and parents age. Aging is not glamerous and sometimes painful. Why should he get special arrangements. Maybe he should of thought about that when he was BETRAYINGu our TRUST. I will never vote for Durbin again, I thought he had a brain.... If he thinks this is right what is he up to? Ryan can spend his time in jail just like the other CRIMINALS its just to bad hes not in a REAL JAIL so he can experience life as the jury of his peers and court system deemed necessary.

"In June 2005, Durbin fought ferociously against U.S. involvement with war crimes taking place at Guantanamo Bay (interrogation and torture)."

Interrogation is a war crime now?

"if one governor cannot prove the innocence of another governor, then guilt must be well-deserved."

This makes perfect sense.
