Blah, Blago

Is it a far stretch to say the man's name, Blagojevich? I'm tired of hearing about it, firstly. If that isn't bad enough, I have to hear them call him "Governor Blago" or just "Blago."

What the hell?

If you're going to send a man down the river at least have the common courtesy to say his entire name. The fact some news commentators call him Blago reflects their own ignorance, because they cannot say his name.

Besides, if this scandal were happening in any other state would the media care? It is only because it is one of Barack Obama's home states. (I'm confused if it is Illinois or Hawaii. The media use both states interchangeably.)

Let's all say B-L-A-G-O-J-E-V-I-C-H. And to make it even easier, the "j" makes a "ya" sound. How fun is that, really?
