Governor Rod Blagojevich of Illinois is right now making his closing statement in his impeachment trial. According to reports his statement will be an hour and a half long. He wants to bring in witnesses and have his day in court. He is allowed to say what he wants and no one can ask him any questions. This is the only day that he has attended in his impeachment trial. He keeps talking about all these good things that he has done. He has been on a press tour for the last few weeks. Geraldo Rivera is even defending the man now.I do not think that Blagojevich was ever trying to help the people of Illinois, only himself. He is calling on a few senators to be witnesses for him but I doubt they would actually attend, and Patrick Fitzgerald would not let anyone be called. What do you think about the impeachment trial of the governor?
