I didn't see anything posted on this live testimony. Who's watching it and what are your thoughts?

back to the U S Open

I just wanna know what Martha thinks about Paris's food.

[TomGuy]

This is the 2nd major hearing that has voiced that the 3 young men are completely innocent.

That helps them, when the civil suits begin.

Then there’s Nancy Grace, yet another DBM scumbag whose career should be over for the irresponsible and incompetent manner in which she approached this case:

But then no intelligent person ever mistook Nancy Grace for a journalist, whereas the NY Times really does manage to fool some people.

[Enchante]

Everyone, please view the appalling Nancy Grace video linked above and then tell CNN why that vicious pig should never be given airtime again. She had her mind made up and was never going to allow the slightest serious discussion of problems with the “evidence” (sic) and DA, process, etc. She makes Rosie O’Donnell look almost sane and sober (not really, Rosie is totally deranged, too).

[Brytani]

Yes, and still people like Wendy Murphy (how many lawyers has she taught?) still believes these men are guilty of something.

Sad state of affairs when people like this are given positions of authority.

[Enchante]

Speaking of vile and loathsome liberal so-called journalists who botched this entire case and story due to incorrigible bias...... i.e., talking about Nancy Grace of CNN. This is from two months ago, but even the very liberal Jon Stewart rips Nancy Grace in the most entertaining manner (treatment of Nancy Grace starts at 1:28 on video):

He’s probably been doing that for years. he would want a “new contract” with a “bigger cut”.

Oh, that’s priceless!

Did you notice ALL this past week, each day after Niflong’s trial was aired, someone was sitting in for Nancy Disgrace from 3 to 5 pm. Her substitute said each day, “I’m sitting in for Nancy Grace. Nancy will be on CNN Headline News at 8 pm, discussing........etc. I NEVER heard her say discussing the Nifong trial. I don’t watch “Headline News at 8,” so I’m not sure if she ever discussed Nifong this past week. I’ll be sure to watch it Monday to see if she mentions that he was disbarred.

Thanks again for the video. It’s great! Jon Stewart is a funny guy.

[Eric Blair 2084]

Stewart didn't show you the call that started all of this nonsense. It's Breaking News on FR:

bbbring, rrrrriiiingg

Secretary: Durham DA's office can I help you.

Butthead: Uuuuuhhh, can I like speak to the uuuuhhhhh...Dumb Ass, I mean DA please.

Secretary: What is this in reference to?

Butthead: Uuuuhhh, tell him I was, uuuuhhh...like...uuuuuhhhh a white kid who was raped by...uhh...like 3 black women.

Beavis: Oh, yeeah, yeah...eh, heh, heh...that's a good one butthead.

Secretary: Ok, hold on... (12 minutes later)

Secretary: Sorry. We don't handle those cases here. You'll have to go to Judge Wapner or Judge Judy with that case.

Butthead: Uuuuuuhhh, OK...uuuhhhh, uh, uhhh how about like... I was a black chick...who thinks she may have been...uh...like raped...or something... by like uhh, huhh 3 rich white guys.

Beavis: Eh, heh, heh, heh...yeah...eh, heh, white and eh heh, rich...eh, heh and tell them about the election for DA...eh heh.

Secretary: Hold on please. (1 second later)

Nifong: Mike Nifong speaking, how can I help you?

Butthead: Uuuuuhhh, I think I was like...raped...or something. By like some rich white dudes, and I'm like uhhhhh, black...or something....

Beavis: Yeah, eh, heh raped.

Nifong: OK, we'll file charges tomorrow.

Butthead: Oh, uuuuuhhhh, cool.

Beavis: Heh, eh, that was cool.

[soccermom]

I was stunned by Seilgamann’s account of how Nifong rejected his alibi. Apparently, he refused to look at the documentation, calling it “fiction”. What kind of an operation do they have going on there, where the prosecutor doesn’t even interview the alleged victim and refuses to look at exculpatory evidence? I wonder if others prosecuted by Nifong have grounds for appeals now.

[soccermom]

ROFLOL!!!!!! I don’t care if he’s liberal. Stewart is funny!

[91B]

John Stewart is a huge jerk, but he rips Nancy Grace a new on in this video.

[91B]

Oops, you already had that one up.

[toldyou]

ROTFLMAO!

You do a great Beavis and Butthead! I miss them!

" I don't know how the man can sleep at night; other than he truly has no conscious"

In these times it seems that there are so many people who are immoral, amoral, devious, evil and have never developed a conscience about anything.

On the "Dead Man Walking" comment. Michelle Malkin challenged New Black Panther Party Chairman Malik Zulu Shabazz, New Black Panther Party Leader Calls Michelle Malkin a ‘Political Prostitute’

"..MALKIN: And, last May, one of your members said to Reade Seligmann, one of the Duke lacrosse players -- quote -- that he was a "dead man walking.".."

I think the person who made the comment was a member of the New Black Panther Party. I also recall hearing the voice, or one very much like it, in another incident.

ADL Condemns Racist, Anti-Semitic Tirades At Rep. Cynthia Mckinney's Concession Speech

"..During the scuffle, another member of her entourage who wore a New Black Panther Party pin shouted expletives at the media, including calling them "crackers" --a derisive term for whites – and telling them, "You got what you damn wanted. You got your Uncle Tom, now go put your cameras on him," referring to Hank Johnson, the African American candidate who defeated Ms. McKinney..."

I think it may be the same person. To me they sounded similar and both are with the New Black Panther Party.

The death threat against Seligmann was illegal and a violation of his civil rights. Charges should be made against this thug.

Best Yet on Hannity. Hashim Nzinga was the person who made the Uncle Tom comment on the video below :

Hannity & Colmes - The New Black Panthers (Hashim Nzinga)

I have not found a copy of the "Dead man walking" comment yet, but I have heard it broadcast and it may or may not be this person.

[Anti-Bubba182]

Below is a video of Seligmann being Harrassed. This one says "Justice will be done Rapist!" It does not go to the point of the "Dead Man Walking Comment", but this sounds like the voice of Hashim Nzinga.

'The Abrams Report' for May 18

"..ABRAMS: All right. So that was what was happening during the hearing, but there were some threats and fireworks going on in the pew of that courtroom.

NBC‘s Michelle Hofland was in court and joins us now. Michelle, what happened? There was someone in there threatening Reade Seligmann?

MICHELLE HOFLAND, NBC NEWS CORRESPONDENT: Exactly. He was sitting right behind Reade Seligmann when he came in and sat down in the court and he said—quote—“you‘re a dead man walking”, then he used a swear word. Then he said I can‘t sit behind this guy, well he used a swear word there, then he got up and left.

And actually, the swear words and the yelling out occurred down here before Reade Seligmann and his attorneys ever even entered the courthouse. As they came up here to the courthouse this afternoon about two hours ago, they were flanked by the attorneys.

As they walked in, there was a group here from the new Black Panther organization. As they walked up to head into the courthouse, there were some people calling out to Reade Seligmann—quote—“justice will be served, rapist.” And they kept calling him a rapist as he was walking inside the courthouse today.

A lot of fireworks. Then just as the court started this afternoon, the judge said hey, basically, I‘m in charge here. This will not be a forum. And I decide what happens in court. And I will be in control.

ABRAMS: So this guy left before the proceedings started, right? Because the judge basically said if anyone is going to yell, if anyone is going to shout, if anyone is going to say anything, they are going to get arrested?

HOFLAND: No. Actually, he left from the seat right behind Reade Seligmann, then went around to about two rows back to where the group of the new Black Panther organization was sitting down. They were trying to calm him down. One of the deputies who—went in there, talked to him, and made sure that he was going to behave himself while he was in the courtroom..."
