"Fire Those Fuckers"

According to the criminal complaint, "United States of America v. Rod R. Blagojevich and John Harris," if (soon to be former) Illinois Governor Blagojevich were ever to be interviewed by James Lipton on Inside the Actors Studio and was asked, "What's your favorite curse word?," Rod's answer would undoubtedly be, "Fuck!"

Check out these highlights from Rod's wiretapped conversations (compiled by Novid Parsi on the Time Out Chicago blog). Gov. Blagojevich said...

"If they don’t perform, fuck ’em."

"It’s a political fuckin’ operation in there."

"Fire those fuckers."

"Fire all those fucking people.
Get ’em the fuck out of there."

(The Senate seat) “is a fucking valuable thing."

"I’ve got this thing, and it’s fucking golden,
and, uh, uh, I’m just not giving it up
for fuckin’ nothing."

"…before I just give fucking [Senate Candidate 1]
a fucking Senate seatand I don’t get anything."

"If they feel like they can do this and not fucking give me anything…
then I’ll fucking go [Senate Candidate 5]."

And my personal favorite (because it's so completely anti-Southern)...

"They’re not willing to give me anything except appreciation.
Fuck them."

Nice, Blago. Real fuckin' nice.

And as if all of that doesn't tell you that Rod is a complete sleaze, here's what he had to say about President-elect Barack Obama...

"Motherfucker…
Fuck him.… Fuck him.”

Oh, Rod. Very soon, you're not going to be fucking anybody anymore. Soon, Sir, it will be time for YOU to get fucked. Hard and deep. Without lube. And your name will be, "Bitch."

As my father says, "Paybacks are motherfuckers."
