Hey Rod, who said it couldn't be done.
Sorry, but no, Senator Burris, Darth Vader and I are not one in the same.
"Rod Blagojevich? He's one of my most promising minions!"
Hum .. was that chair that was being auctioned and you get the highest bid?
That's where we stash all the Haliburton money
A rousing show of support greeted Senator Burris upon swearin-in!
And they thought me being in office was a miracle!

You think the press coverage your getting is hostile, they still haven't forgotten my shooting accident !!
Then I said, "Dubya, if you disclose our ponzi scheme, I'll swear I took you hunting, too."
Let me show you to my unknown location.
Cheney adds his own touch to the swearing in ceremony as he gestures for the water boarding equipment to be brought in.
Next he plans to appoint a governor with the understanding that he will receive a full pardon.
The line for wishful thinking starts over there.
"Some guy named Rod called and said I had to pay $1,000 to swear you in."
What, you have proof of Blagojevich really has a wig? I knew it, let me see it.
See America..... I will reach across the aisle without my shotgun!
This way Sen. Burris to the two year's and done section.
"And over here is where we are going to put the Guantonamo prisoners"
"Hey, somebody remind Harry Reid he had it right–it WAS a cold day in DC."
“Ahem, Senator Leahy, I am going to need your assistance with the swearing-in ceremony.”
So I hold the gun like this..point at whichever lucky animal is in front of me and POW!
Ok Senator, and over here is where everyone plays twister on there break...
Cheney is showing Burris the area where senators who pay to play are to be seated!
"Berlean, you better cover your eyes and ears baby, I think he's gesturing to Senator Leahy!"
And now ...let me show you my air guitar skills...
See, I told you there'd be no lightning strike.
"Ahem, Senator Leahy, I am going to need your assistance in the swearing-in ceremony."
"And under that rug is the tunnel to my undisclosed location, Roland."

Hey George, come over here! I want you to meet someone who was less wanted down here than we were.
Now if you'll just step right over here Senator Burris, we can discuss that quail hunt in Texas I promised you.
I bet we can convince George that your Obama, and has named me a defense sevretary
throughout the years, pilots and flight crew have been asked to give money so the airlines can survive. wake-up! the pilots and the crew save the lives, the CEO's continue to make the money
Congratulations Senator! Hey incidentally, do you think you could get my resume to Blagojevich?
Did I shoot that?!
Okay, so you can order these in wallet size, 8 x10's & poster size for all your friends.
Don't worry, they didn't want me around here at first either. And I lasted eight years.
If you walk that way, I promise I won't shoot ya!
Can I interest you in a desk to go with that chair?
