CQ:

The names of lobbying clients that Sen. Roland W. Burris declared to a state legislative panel do not match those on records he filed over the last decade with Illinois and Chicago agencies, a CQ analysis of the records has found.
Majority Whip Richard J. Durbin , a fellow Illinois Democrat, suggested that the Ethics Committee should also probe Burris’ lobbying activities.
“Every day there are more and more revelations about contacts with Blagojevich advisors, efforts at fundraising and omissions from his list of lobbying clients,” Durbin said in a statement from Turkey, where he is on a congressional trip. “These news reports and the public statements by Roland Burris himself are troubling and raise serious questions which need to be looked at very carefully.”

Elsewhere at CQ, Craig Crawford writes, “It is time for President Barack Obama, the leader of his party, to take action to end this ridiculous mess and push Burris out of the Senate seat he once held.”

I’m reminded of the great number of newspapers that called on Bill Clinton to resign after hearing about the revelations of the Lewinsky scandal, but opposed impeachment. It was akin to saying, “he should be removed from office, but only if he wants to go.”

Burris, like Blagojevich, will never resign. Expulsion is the only way to get him out of office.
