Roland Burris Pleads For His Career: 'Stop The Rush To Judgment'

Embattled U.S. Sen. Roland Burris defended himself today in the midst of the multiple probes into the circumstances surrounding his appointment by former Gov. Rod Blagojevich.

"If I had done the things I've been accused of, I'd be too embarrassed to stand up here," Burris said.

"Stop the rush to judgment. You know the real Roland. I have done nothing wrong and I have absolutely nothing to hide," he told the City Club of Chicago.
