Martian Guv? Well, That Explains a Lot

Gov. Rod Blagojevich gave a hint into the cause of his brazen and bizarre behavior when he spoke with a reporter yesterday outside his lawyer's office. After a "no duh" moment when Blago said that "if [he would] have known people were listening, [he] probably wouldn't have said some of the things you say in private conversations," he continued on and said that perhaps he might not be of this world:

"Even in this process, without saying too much, that was all about trying to end up with the right decision that could do the most things for the people of Illinois, and when the full truth is told, you will see precisely that," Blagojevich said.

"If somehow that's impeachable, then I'm on the wrong planet and I'm living in the wrong place," he said.


He then peeled back the skin from his face to reveal the lizard-like features underneath. Who had "teleported back to his home galaxy" in the Blago death pool?
