Politics Live: Could Inconsistencies in Burris’ Statements Put Him in Trouble?
Email"I responded to all questions that were asked of me by the impeachment committee in the time allotted," Sen. Roland Burris said at a news conference Monday, insisting that he has always been truthful. "At no time did I ever make any inconsistent statement."
In an affidavit released over the weekend, the senator — who is filling the seat left vacant by President Obama — admitted that former Illinois governor Rod Blagojevich’s brother asked Burris for campaign fundraising before the senator was appointed. Burris did not mention that in his testimony to the impeachment committee in January.
Could these inconsistencies make Burris the next Illinois politician to be accused of perjury? Tune into Monday’s edition of Politics Live for more details and how Burris is being viewed by his peers in Congress.

One can be contrite and say sorry, but he cannot ever take back the lies he said, regardless of how he wants to change his wordings now. Always and ever will be a liar and should be rejected as the senator from IL.

No. He is a Democrat. He is black.
No way, Jose.
