I say it again. Rosie O'D, Tim Robbins, and all the other morons who scream that Bush is taking away our freedoms ought to direct their rage at the real threats to civil liberties, out of control prosecutors like Nifong. It is scary to think there is little or no check on their activities.

It's almost noon before the truth dawns on some, but it's a bright beautiful dawn when it finally comes.

The intellectual triviality of the "Rosie O'D, Tim Robbins"
et alia non est disputantum. It is proven beyond peradventure.
My objection was merely to the characterization of all Blacks.

We the people's question is: "Is the NC bar pissed because of this big bumbling ice berg (Nifong)threatening the navigation lanes in the NC ocean of Jurisprudence, or because they are afraid that we the people will discover that Nifong is merely the tiny tip of that ice berg?

It took a few media bytes to rile the masses into voting for Nifong. It will take a few more to reconcile them to the impending dismissal. I don't see this so much as either "damage control" or the NAACP's "spin" (which is not to say that the NAACP won't spin it). I see it more as trying to avoid or lessen the possibility of violent reaction to the dismissal.

I wonder if enrollment is down at Duke this year? I know I will not be sending my kids there.

'zackly. The MSM shoveled the coal to keep this nightmare train rolling. Now they want to disown it.
To: abb
I don't buy it either. There isn't remorse about voting for the Fong. The remorse is that the charges aren't true.

I assure you the ABA has no love for prosecutors. The ABA is as left as they come. They would rally behind a defense attorney in a minute, but love to see prosecutors take a hit.
Nifong deserves to be disbarred for his misbehavior in this case. I just hate that it will give the ABA something to hold against all prosecutors. I am sure they will make up their own "culture of corruption" argument.
To: abb
Mr. Nifong was trying to help my sister," said the brother. "The more stuff that gets out in court, the better."LOL yeah let's put your sis on the stand. We'll check back with you 15 minutes into the defense attorney's questioning to see how you're doing with "the stuff that gets out in court" at that point.

I feel like she told the truth," The left does not operate on facts. Facts are immaterial to them. It's what they FEEL that counts. It is not possible to convince someone who operates on feelings that reality is not what they feel. This is how many 'rat politicians get elected. It is frustrating.
To: abb
If this had been a private attorney, the Bar would have sought an emergency disbarment and would have been working towards a permanent disbarment.
but jessie jackson and the black panthers had their TV face time so I expect he will get either an admonisment or a suspension with automatic reinstatement.

geeze,
The ABA is a 100% VOLUNTARY organization. It has no regulatory power. Its closes act of officialdom is promulgating model laws or model rules for jurisdiction to use as a template.
The ABA is purly lobbying and a leftist one at that.
Most licensed lawyers are NOT members of the ABA.

I think that it is unfair to call all these Black people racists (though they may be on some level)because they were so ready to believe that the Duke lacrosse boys were guilty. It's an over simplification. These people are poorly educated, perpetual victims that are easily led by the media and community leaders to support the anti-white agenda of the liberal, post modern Democrats. They're really not much different than the rent-a-mob who attacked the British embassy in Iran.

As another freeper posted, boat people come here with nothing but the shirt on their backs. After a year they own a couple of nail salons, a home and a BMW. Also they speak fluent English.
