Durbin praises Burris
U.S. Sen. DICK DURBIN, D-Ill., was among those who didn’t welcome Roland Burris into the U.S. Senate with open arms, what with Burris’ appointment by Blagojevich. And a federal court now is ordering a special election to complete the last two months of the term Burris is filling, so it’s not even certain how much longer Burris will have the job.

But in an interview in Springfield last week, Durbin had nice things to say about Burris’ tenure.

“From my point of view, he has been a good U.S. senator,” said Durbin, the assistant majority leader.

“He loves presiding over the Senate,” Durbin added. “We give what’s called a golden gavel award for 100 hours of sitting in the chair. He’s received his second one. He’s working on his third one. So he does it a lot.

“When it comes to votes,” Durbin continued, “from my point of view, he’s been solid. He really has supported the president, supported our caucus. He’s well liked for that.”

They both are corrupt like the rest of the Gov. and his buddies and the rest of the Chicago gang

First let me say neither are my man.
Did not vote for Durbin and never will.
They remind me of a pack of snakes in high grass; awaiting and calculating their next prey.
It would be great if these snakes worked as hard on the job as they do to steal from the public.

Durbin likes Burris for carrying the company water.

Whoda thunk it.
