RONALD BURRIS APPOINTMENT IS LEGAL SENATOR REID

The United States Majority Leader Harry Reid said that he will not seat Ronald Burris who was appointed by Gov. Rod Blagojevich. The Senate Majority Leader signed a statement with the Senior Senator of Illinois Sen. Dick Durbin that the seat should be left vacant until a new Governor is sworn in after the impeachment of Gov. Blagojevich. The Secretary Of State Jesse White said that he, would not certify the appointment of of Ronald Burris as Senator of Illinois. Ronald Burris has asked the Illinois Supreme Court to certify that his appointment by Gov. Blagojveich is legal and that he, should be seated as the Junior Senator of Illinois. The Powell vs. McCormack case says that you must seat Ronald Burris as the Junior Senator Of Illinois but, there are some legal scholars that say that this case does not apply to the appointment of Burris. Sen. Harry Reid plans to use the Sargent Of Arms from stopping Ronald Burris from entering the Senate Chambers. There have been protest in Chicago by African-American leaders supporting the appointment of Ronald Burris saying that any politician that stops the appointment of Ronald Burris that they will pay when the are up for re-election. Finally, I can't wait to see Sen. Harry Reid and President Obama stop the only African-American from entering the Senate chambers with the whole country watching this "Clown Act" live on national television.
