Rod R. Blagojevich’s name is coming off of the Illinois Tollway signs to be replaced by Toll Plaza names and numbers.

As an Illinois Tollway consumer, I’m glad to see that the authority is saving money by changing the signs in such a way that they won’t have to be changed with every new Governor elected.  Also, there’s something strange about seeing a pol’s name plastered everywhere.  Just replace whoever’s name is on a sign with Sadam and you’ll get the picture.

The Sun-Times says Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich’s impeachment trial seems fair to them so far.

Gov. Blagojevich on Friday called upon the editorial board of the Chicago Sun-Times and other newspapers to come to his defense and ensure that he gets a fair impeachment trial this week.

But after studying the merits of the governor’s specific complaints, here’s our response: So far, so fair.

Here’s what the Sun-Times says in a Tweet about Blago’s plea for help from Chicago newspapers:

When #Blagojevich asked for help from our editorial board, they decided to call bull on this cowpoke.
