Calls for Burris to resign

The Chicago Tribune said it first. Then came Illinois House Republicans. Then came the Chicago Sun-Times. Now, Gov. Pat Quinn is asking Sen. Roland Burris to resign.

Burris said he did nothing wrong when he "perjured" himself at the Blagojevich trial. He lied, plain and simple about campaign fundraising for Blago and contact with close Blago associates. But he will never resign. What can be done? Only the US Senate can get rid of him.

What a great state! Go Illinois!
