Roland along down the gutter

Just when it seemed that things could not become even more pitiful in IL, after the revelations of conceiving pay-for-play deals between Burris and Blago in Judge-ordered tapes, Burris believes that his withholding of the conversation was justifiable!

Burris rationalizes his ridiculous assertion in this manner:

You're being asked questions and one thing you don't do is to try to
volunteer information that wasn't asked. There was no obligation
there."

Really. How pragmatic of him, not to mention thoughtful for him to be so concerned about insulting Robert Blagojevich rather than insulting the IL population. If Burris is, as he says, "as straightforward and honest as I can be," then we truly grieve for all the good people (and Hounds of course) in our backyard.
