Blago on the Loose

Blago is on Don and Roma blasting Gov. Quinn for his talk of raising taxes. 

Also talking up his book--Madigan in his scope. Corrupt insiders.

P.S. I imagine they will post the audio soon.

UPDATE: Here's the podcast link.

More: Quinn says Burris' son can keep his state job:

In response to a Chicago Sun-Times report last month, Quinn promised a review of the September 2008 hiring of Roland Burris II as the $75,000-a-year senior counsel for the state's housing authority.

Burris II got his job with the Illinois Housing Development Authority six weeks after the Internal Revenue Service slapped him with a $34,163 tax lien and three weeks after a mortgage company filed a foreclosure suit on his South Side home.

Reaction?

Quinn's decision to allow Burris II to remain on the job drew an admonition from a key House Republican, who suggested a condition of Burris II's future employment should be enrolling in one of his agency's anti-foreclosure initiatives.

"It sounds to me Mr. Burris perhaps should be somewhere else in IHDA and probably should be participating in some of its counseling classes himself," said Rep. Jim Durkin (R-Western Springs).
