Illinois Sen. Roland "Emburrising" Burris won't be facing perjury charges for his misleading statements about his appointment by indicted former Gov. Rod "Let's Make A Deal" Blagojevich. The state prosecutor in the case says that there's not enough hard evidence to indict him, given his "vague" statements under oath. Well, when you tell the Governor's brother that you'll do something for the Governor, as in "I could give him a check," and then say under oath that you had no contact with the Governor's team on the Senate appointment, it doesn't sound all that vague to us. We're betting that it doesn't sound so vague to Illinois Democrats, who will have their primary election next year.
