First-term U.S. Rep. Gwen Moore, D-Wis., enters court with her son Sowande Omokunde in Milwaukee. Omokunde and four other Democratic activists were charged with slashing the tires of vans rented by Republicans to drive voters and election monitors to the polls on election day in 2004.
"The Milwaukee Five" Ping.
Omokunde?
How is it that Moore's son's last name is Omokunde? Born out of wedlock or he changed it in an effort to honor his African "roots"?
He also goes by "Supreme Solar Allah"
Republicans were disenfranchised!
Where's Jessie Jackson?
All you need ask is what the reaction would be if the situation were reversed - if Republicans had done this.
I hope the judge asks himself that too before sentencing.
I don't understand why the democrats just can't accept the fact that the levee we bombed in New Orleans was not done out of malice, but mere payback. </ sarcasm>
Whoa. Okay, that provides some insight.
Why isn't this Republican Disenfranchisement?
Just had to get that dig in, didn't they? But even they have to admit, this is no joking matter. The Democrats are the guilty ones here and no amount of spinning will get them out of it. It would appear, however, that the WSJ would like to put this behind them as quickly as possible without looking to terribly closely at out of state connections.
Diana, how much longer is this trial expected to last? What's your take on getting a conviction? I REALLY want a guilty verdict & harsh sentence!
FAILURE TO CONVICT will be a dire signal to the future of the democratic process in America. The next step is thugs intimidating voters at the polls.
I noticed the same thing but I just couldn't bring myself to give a crap, no matter how hard I tried.
Democrat crime in a Democrat district? No jail time whatsoever is my bet.
The trial started on the 9th. They're trying the five together, and it's expected to take 2 weeks to wrap up.
They're going down for this, I have no doubt. No one was allowed to plead out. It's a jury trial. The only thing would be if the defense can prove that these thugs didn't do it and it was "DNC Operative Ninjas" from out of state, LOL! Either way, we win. :)
Agreed.
Gesundheit!
