i wouldn't want them around here either by the way. they should be kept in a military facility, not a civilian...you'd have to think fort leavenworth for example would be more secure than a prison.

Pretty sure it was Durbin's idea. Right now with the whole Blago thing going on no one knows anyone or anything. That joker Scott Lee Cohen (who dems forced off the dem ticket as Lt.Gov. and says he was physically threatened) has gotten enough signatures and will now run for Gov. all but assuring downstate Rep Bradley wins. Rahm coming back to run for mayor? Alex G. running for Senate off his family's bank being taken over by the Feds. Politics always a fun ride here in IL.

He's also now also been issued a subpoena for Blago's trial..... he's on the tapes setting up meetings for Blago for the senate seat.

I think you're right with the prison idea being Durbin's.
