Who is the bigger fool - Blagojevich or Burris?

Ill. governor names Burris to replace Obama

So I saw the headline that Blago appointed someone to President-Elect Obama's Senate seat and I just knew I misread something?  I mean, noone in their right mind - while under a cloud of suspicion for selling a Senate seat, amid calls to resign - would actually attempt to appoint someone to a vacant Senate seat, right?

WRONG

And the chosen one is Illinois Attorney General Roland Burris - who the Senate Democrats wisely will refuse to seat.   Why anyone would allow themselves to be appointed by "Shake 'em Down" Blago is beyond me.  A sure fire way to have zero credibility.
