ST. LOUIS - Gov. Rod Blagojevich wasn't in on the joke. Blagojevich says he didn't realize "The Daily Show" was a comedy spoof of the news when he sat down for an interview that ended up poking fun at the sometimes-puzzled Democratic governor.

"It was going to be an interview on contraceptives ... that's all I knew about it," Blagojevich laughingly told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch in a story for Thursday's editions. "I had no idea I was going to be asked if I was 'the gay governor.'"

The interview focused on his executive order requiring pharmacies to fill prescriptions for emergency birth control.

Interviewer Jason Jones pretended to stumble over Blagojevich's name before calling him "Governor Smith." He urged Blagojevich to explain the contraception issue by playing the role of "a hot 17-year-old" and later asked if he was "the gay governor."

At one point in the interview, a startled Blagojevich looked to someone off camera and said, "Is he teasing me, or is that legit?"

The segment, which aired two weeks ago, also featured Illinois Republican Rep. Ron Stephens, a pharmacist who opposes the governor's rule. Stephens has said he knew the show was a comedy.

"I thought the governor was hip enough that he would have known that, too," Stephens said.

Very stupid.

The problem is that he went to the show without Mayor Daley by his side. Without Dick's hand up his ass, the puppet can't speak.   Gov. Blomebitch is a fucktard of the highest order.

this is the same jackass that thinks different speeds of different vehicles, going teh same way on the INTERSTATE, is a GOOD thing.

WHAT A FUCKING IDIOT!!!

Yes, but he brought us open road tolling and just look at his hair!

His name says it all, "Rod".  

This guy hasn't had an original idea in his life, and as moparman71 said, he is lost without King Daley calling the shots.

He's so stupid He stared at the orange juice carton because it said "concentrate"!

He's so stupid, He looked in the mirror and said, “Who's that?”

He's  so stupid that He thinks 'harass' is two words.

He's so stupid He saw a sign that said "wet floor" so He did.

Quoted: Very stupid.
