"....wasn't that twisted logic from the fecund brain of "The Reverend" Al Sharpton...? in re: the Tawana Brawley case....? I believe his (in)famous comment was something to the effect that "well, it COULD have happened...!!".... yeah, maybe "Reverend Jessee" thinks along the same lines...."

Yup, and that Could have been a flying pig I saw on my into work this morning. LoL!!! Got love that Sharpton, his always great for comic relief. ;)

"The news of this story is that Susan Estrich has finally had to admit that she knows now..."

In other words, she finally had to admit she was wrong. Whoohooo. LoL!! ;)

[apro]

"I may have missed it, but did Estrich say anywhere that she believes a rape never occurred?"

She spinned it like this: "I'm not even sure whether to call it a rape case anymore." So I take it she is saying that she has doubts that a rape occured concerning these 3 guys.

[apro]

"Do women lie about rape? Occasionally, but no study has ever found that women lie about rape any more often than men lie about other crimes. Why would they, given the stigma that is still attached to victims, and the humiliation involved in pursuing a complaint?"

I can't believe she even made that comment. People can do irrational things without thinking about the consequences and judging from the history of this AV, i.e. stealing a cab and almost running over a police officer, irrationality was in her past.

[apro]

"Can Wendy and Nancy be far behind?"

Yeah, that would be the day, Freak and Frak using common sense for once.

RECALL NIFONG - VOTE CHEEK

THE PEOPLE OF DURHAM COUNTY TAKE BACK THE DA'S OFFICE

THURSDAY, AUGUST 10, 2006

Dear Friends and Neighbors,

The Committee to Recall Nifong - Vote Cheek was formed on August 9, 2006 as a political action committee to campaign for Lewis Cheek in the upcoming election for District Attorney. While Mr. Cheek has declined to campaign for this office, and has stated that he will not accept the position if elected, we believe that this election, and the referendum on Mr. Nifong that it has become, is not about politics but rather about Durham and what Durham stands for.

Thread bosses-- Does "Recall Nifong -Vote Cheek" warrant a new thread?

I'm not sure what Kim Willis is thinking.

Kim Willis is obviously a radical fem. The radical fem DV crowd cooked up the "abuse of animals equals domestic violence" bit.

The fems like those laws because only men will be prosecuted under the animal rights laws.

If y'all say so. I'll put it up in a bit. Been on the road this morning...

5. A scouting report from 12/05

6. 2 surge protectors

Now those items are going to be some key evidence. I feel much safer knowing the Durham police department is so competent. (/sarcasm )

11. Beck "Loser" CD

I think the cops just wanted this for themselves.
