Hot Rod Blagojevich is cagey like a fox in appointing former Illinois Attorney General Roland Burris who is African American to Barack Obama’s open U.S. Senate seat.

A House Democrat is daring Senate leaders to block a black man from taking President-elect Barack Obama’s vacated Senate seat.

Rep. Bobby Rush of Illinois points out that Roland Burris would be the only black man in a chamber populated overwhelmingly by white senators.

Senate Democratic leaders earlier Tuesday added an explicit note of support for Burris personally, but not for his appointment by the embattled governor of Illinois, Rod Blagojevich. The leaders said the Democratic caucus would refuse to seat Burris if Blagojevich appoints him, and called their stance a reflection of the scandal-tainted governor.

Love that RACE CARD being played.

Flap thought this was a post-racial society after the election of the Obamessiah?

Looks like PLUS CA CHANGE.

Over to you, Harry Reid…….
