Gov. Blagojevich read my diary!

My respect for this man, this bold wise leader, this healer, this hero to the common man, whose life is currently a Pearl Harbor-esque hell of unjust and unfounded accusations, continues to grow.

Gov. Blagojevich told Diane Sawyer on Good Morning America that he considered offering the vacant Illinois Senate seat to Oprah Winfrey.

"She seemed to be someone who had helped Barack Obama in a significant way to become president," Blagojevich said. Blagojevich added that "she had a much broader bully pulpit than a lot of senators."

There's only one place he could have gotten this brilliant idea: from the diary I wrote just before Christmas.

Governor, should you ever need further advice during this trying (cough) time in your life, I am now and always at your disposal.
