Like most of you, I have mixed feelings re: one Milorad "Rod" R. Blagojevich, former God-Emperor of Illinois. On the one hand, I like the rest of you believe that he should be staked down in a desicated turnip field so that the worms might devour him alive. On the other...do you all remember the old Warner Bros. cartoons in which Wile E. Coyote actually spoke? There is a poignance there, seeing this poor wretched creature, so sure of himself, so completely in the grip of psychotic delusions of grandeur that he fails to see that Man and God and Fate and all of the Universe are arrayed against him. Blago is our Wile E. Coyote, a visionary brought low by the petty machinations of those not worthy to lick his Acme Jet-Powered Roller Skates. Last night, Rod Blagovich appeared on The Late Show With David Letterman. One could ask, "What was he thinking?" The question is moot. Following the jump, you can watch some of Letterman/Blagojevich, courtesy of the folks at The Huffington Post.
There's more, but apparently CBS wants you to go to their website to see the rest. So I'll recap: after he blames his troubles on the Republicans, the Democrats, and the Illinois Senate, Blagojevich then proceeds to list the rest of his enemies. These include the lobbyists, PAC's, the Special Interests, the media, the Knights of Columbus, the Catholic Church, the Jews, the American Nazi Party, the Freemasons, the Illuminati, the Slytherins, the road runner (I knew it!), a little boy that lives in his head and talks to him and is named Tony, his seduction by the dark side of The Force, the Matrix, Twinkies, and the coming of the year 2012 in which the world will come to an end. Then Letterman made a joke about Blagojevich's hair, so Blagojevich donned his trademark black armor and challenged Letterman to a duel. And as you can see here, that fight ended predictably, if not well.
