Ellis is nobody’s fool, and he doesn’t tolerate BS. He is about as hard-nosed as any judge you’ll find.

There are many women who simply don't believe there are guys who cruise putlic toilets looking for sexual gratification.

We've even seen some of them post on these Craig threads and speak ominously of a conspiracy to get the Senator ~ as if anyone could predict he was going to visit an off the main line of travel toilet highlighted in all the gay "where to get it" websites.

Some Democrat women like Nancy Pelosi don't believe all those stories about black men stealing money, which is why she's defending Jefferson. She'd defend Jefferson if he'd been cruising toilets too ~ but he didn't.

No doubt Jefferson thinks condemnatory thoughts about Craig, and Craig reciprocates them when it comes to Jefferson, but they're both criminals aren't they.

Jefferson would come across with a confession if we'd promise to keep guys like Craig out of his cell.

Northern Virginia, however, has a higher percentage of illegal tourists, persons of Asian ancestry, and foreign born than does DC.

Jefferson's deviation from Liberal orthodoxy will be noted.

At least he doesn’t claim that he is innocent or that he didn’t do it. He merely claims that because of technicalities, or racism, or bigotry, he shouldn’t be prosecuted.

...throw out 14 of the 16 charges...

That means he could be guilty of only 2 felonies? Conviction on one is enough for me although all 16 would be pretty cool...

Legal scholars said some of the motions have a chance to prevail

Only two legal scholars responded to the questionnaire because the third one strangled as the result of his head being so far up his as that he couldn't breath.

>"Partners in crime?"

Not likely. Blank-O is and empty asshat for the Landrieux Family. If you can find the old live interviews watch closely. Blank-O is asked question after question, she is unable to answer ANY of them untill Mary L performs her crummy ventriloquism trick on her! LOL!!!


But cerially, President Bush must hate refigerators and freezers, cause he never even showed up at my house to clean mine after katrina, and he sent the FBI to clean up Billy Jeffs (D La.)!

Anybody have any doubt that William "Cold cash" Jefferson could find an OJ jury that couldn't spell 'DNA' if you spotted them the 'D' and the 'A'?

I can't claim to be legal scholar, but I've tried a fair number of cases before Judge Ellis, and these motions have no chance of prevailing.
