It was the best of times, it was the best of times. Wow are we doing great in the great State of Illinois. Never mind the growing debt... Two years ago, Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich went on a tear about how the problem with Illinois education was the Illinois State Board of Education. Last year he announced a plan to provide health care for all Illinois children. In the Governor's State of the State address yesterday, it was rebuilding roads and help with the cost of higher education. You just never know what it's going to be with Rod, but one thing is clear: We're living in the land of Oz. Just kidding about that, kind of. Part of my job here on WILLblog is to be provocative. But I would never tell you what to think, and always encourage you to be informed. So in keeping with our open-source philosophy of media, here are audio archives of Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich delivering the State of the State address in Springfield on January 18th, 2006: streaming RealAudio MP3 download
