Thanks for the link. Can you give those of us who should be coding right now the bottom line?

Marsden’s response on her website. Reeks of a cover-up by the police for one of their own guys leaking some major intel.

SHe dated a counter-terorism cop who leaked intel to her. 3 months ago, his own force put him under investigation. He’s now angry and filed a retaliatory complaint. She provided the leaked intelligence and documents to the National Post in this story here -

Police cover-up, Marsden is the scapegoat. Pretty obvious to me.

Count me in your camp. Based on what is out there, I’d want more info before I’d go out on a limb on this one.

Looks like UPI was able to sift through the bullcrap and get to the REAL story.

“Marsden grew up in Port Coquitlam, B.C., and was enrolled at Simon Fraser in 1995 when she accused swimming coach Liam Donnelly of sexual harassment over a 16-month period and date rape.

In 1997, prominent feminists took up her cause. “

This was a “hugh and series” case in Canada. The feminists and university administrators behaved similar to those at Duke regarding the LAX players “rape” charges.

It was manifestly obvious then that Marsden was a total whack job. Nothing seems to have changed. It’s amazing that she’s a right-wing commentator.

Never heard of her, but she sounds like a nut. I’m siding with the guy until given strong reason to the contrary.

Understood.

If this was a ‘hit job’, but it’s not.

She has a history.

It doesn't seem to have anything that isn't posted above. It's the lady's history that gives me pause.

It's amazing that she has been able to pass herself off as one for so long.

If the email allegedly from the Canadian cop to her are for real, the Canadian cop has got real problems

I'd hit that like a $2 mule! Repeatedly, even, but I prefer the shot of her in leather either post 8, or

""If I was going to 'stalk' anyone from that kind of a massive distance, it sure wouldn't be that loser."

LOL! Must have really been a bummer for his ego.

"Three months ago, she posted his photo on her website as "Rachel's Jerk of the Day." She removed the photo within 24 hours, she has said, but Backhurst's lawyer said the posting has potentially endangered the officer."

LOL! The boy made "Jerk of the Day". Since he can't handle it, make him "Clymer of the Month".

“and the Fox show Red Eye dropped her as a panelist.”

But that has nothing to do with this. She was kicked off of Red Eye because she was unable to come up with at least one childish sexual innuendo every 30 seconds, which is a requirement of the show.

I know the feeling....

I met my Bride when she was 20, that was over 35 yeas ago.

I still shut up when she walks into the room and consider myself as the luckiest guy on the planet. While I do joke allot and I am a well meaning and openly flirtatious guy, that “older woman” of mine... remains my one and only fantasy.

I still wonder when she’s going to wakeup and realize that I didn’t age as gracefully as she has, and discover that I am spending all of HER money. ;>)

Can anyone imagine a male, with even a fraction of Marsden's rap sheet, still having any sort of public career ?!?!

Apparently, to the house organ of the Chretienista Liberals, the opportunity to roast even a faux conservative trumps its usual commitment to relentless gender bigotry.
