Where is the Illinois Senator and what is he doing to help the state he represents? I spent some time in Chicago, I saw a cop standing over a dead black guy in a pool of blood one day. He was eating a sub sandwich. I also saw a couple of burning BMWs on the South side where I was working on a golf course.

Blagojevich: Chicago May Need National Guard Help


With gun violence at a crisis, Gov. Rod Blagojevich on Wednesday said he is in talks with Illinois State Police and the Illinois National Guard to see if more police officers can be deployed to the streets of Chicago.

The governor said Chicago Mayor Richard Daley hasn't asked for help, but Blagojevich says he'll call the mayor once he has some concrete suggestions about what help he can provide.

Blagojevich didn't have many specifics, but he said it's more likely that state police will be brought in than the National Guard.
