Following on the news that Roland Burris (D-IL) tried to raise campaign funds for former Gov. Rod Blagojevich, who appointed him to the Senate, The <a href="http://www.suntimes.com/news/metro/burris/1450607,CST-NWS-burris26.article">Chicago Sun-Times</a> reports that Burris' son was given a job by Blago five months ago.
