The Right to Vote



Iraqis voted in a pivotal election today as they seek to reshape their government. With violence down and participation in the elections up, the democracy experiment is looking to turn a corner.

Blago Last Gasp


Rod is looking for a new job


O Rod Blagojevich! What would CNN have to talk about without your antics? Continuing his ill-fated PR tour today on the floor of the Illinois Senate did him no good.

The Illinois State Senate decided the circus stops there. Despite his hair's best effort to defend itself, it could not prevent his removal from office.

Now that Rod is no longer governor, what other job can he possibly hold?

After a cursory search on Monster, here are the winning candidates

1. Loan Specialist- Because you can count on your local banker, Rod, to provide a loan that's right for you.
2. Attorneys-Running from the Law- I couldn't have picked a better name for this job.
3. Mechanic- "I had nothing to do with your engine falling out of your car"

Better get your resume in order Rod, you start looking on Monday.
