| The House Committee in U.S. President-elect Barack
Obama's home state of
Illinois has recommended that the State
Governor, Rod Blagojevich, be
impeached for abuse of
power. Mr Blagojevich has been
accused of trying to make a
profit by selling the Senate
seat vacated by Mr Obama. The
decision means a full Illinois
House Committee may take
action today to make Rod
Blagojevich the first
Governor to be impeached in
the history of Illinois
politics. |
