The Roland Burris Drama Continues: Burris NOT Accepted Yet

Illinois U.S. Senate Appointee Roland Burris, left, smiles as he meets with Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid of Nev., Wednesday, Jan. 7, 2009, on Capitol Hill in Washington

Democrat Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid clings to the notion that Roland Burris will NOT be accepted until the Illinois Secretary of State signs off on the appointment.

The Illinois Supreme Court ruling on the matter is imminent and the Senate Democrats continue to look like Ass-hats. California Senator Dianne Feinstein has insisted that the signature of Jesse White (Illinois Secretary of State) is not required to seat Burris.

But, Reid insists that this block of Burris is NOT racial.

Obviously, a DEAL has not been cut with Roland Burris.

Stay tuned – Roland Burris will hold a news conference in a couple of hours.
