COMMENTS: Burris Retestifies
Was the book on Rod Blagojevich closed when he was removed from office last month? Not really. CBS' Nancy Cordes now opens a new chapter, this time on Roland Burris, the senator Blagojevich appointed. Burris swore that he recalled having only one meeting with Blagojevich's staff when he testified at the then-governor's impeachment trial. Burris now revises his testimony in an affidavit: he had four meetings and took three telephone calls from the governor's brother. In response to talk of perjury, "Burris insists none of the contact was inappropriate and says he raised no money" for Blagojevich.
