A semi-lib is probably in the group...

This guy needs to join Vikram Buddi, Carlos HArtmann, Suleman Talivic, and Patrick Bedell in the Yahoo Haliburton Financial Board Hall of Shame.

Someone should point out how just ONE Yahoo message board has been home to so many leftist killers and felons.

This goober walks, just watch.

I don’t think it was wise to redact any of the law since he is deciding for them which parts may or may not apply.

[manic4organic]

Death! Just kidding. Although the libs would act this way.

In their written communication to the judge this afternoon, the jurors said: "Some of us feel not all jurors are following the jury instruction."

Jurors are not required to follow the judge's instructions, (which are often borderline criminal themselves). A juror has a right under common law to dispense with the law itself and is not required to rule accordingly.

“Some of us feel not all jurors are following the jury instruction.”

Politics over justice once again.

In their written communication to the judge this afternoon, the jurors said: "Some of us feel not all jurors are following the jury instruction."

My Libtard-Radar just went off. But the good news is that it seems they did convict the guy on 3 counts so far and libtards are holding up the other charge. Bet he gets at least 5 years in prison!

[P-Marlowe]

But they also reported they are deadlocked on the first count, a charge of identity theft.

That one was a stretch anyway. He didn't steal anyone's identity, just their passwords and then he hijacked the account.

The fact that they are deadlocked on that count suggests they are going to find him guilty on the other three.

[Sarah Barracuda]

He deserves 5 years, 10 at least..I bet there is at least 1 lib in the jury..its taking WAY too long..how hard is it, the guy wasn’t pulling a prank, he did this to HURT Sarah, to damage her, to put her life in danger. If this had been done to Obama, or Michelle, he would have been hung a long time ago. A prank is ordering 10 pizzas and having them delivered to her house, or calling her house a bunch of times saying how she’s hot, not putting all of her friends and families emails all over the Internet so every single idiot out there could threaten her family. What’s so damn hard, he ADMITTED it for God’s sake

Some of us feel not all jurors are following the jury instruction."

"Bush should be on trial, not this kid." I'll bet you a dollar.

[HerrBlucher]

Quick verdicts usually mean guilty.

[Walkingfeather]

“Federal Prosecutors Mark Krotoski and Greg Weddle contend Kernell broke into Palin’s account with the intent to find information that could damage her political campaign, though he found none.”

I think this is the best example of oppositional research out there and why the dems are scared of her. She can’t be compromised. All politicians are compromised, this guy went looking in the very area that there was an presupposition of privacy and found no dirt. That means Palin is authentic. And that is why the dems have to get her out of politics. They have no strings to pull on her.

[Hulka]

“”Some of us feel not all jurors are following the jury instruction.” “

Wanna bet that “some” juror is a leftist loon sitting tight and ignoring the law in an effort to acquit, and if not acquit, generate a mistrial.

[Typical_Whitey]

I will withold my cynasism until after the verdict and the sentencing. Since this whole fiasco involved Democrat criminals I still remain hopeful that justice is blind to Politics but we shall soon see.

[nevergore]

Forget the laws for a moment and look at the damage he caused.....

It was an embarassment to The McCain/Palin ticket and caused serious disruption to the campaign....

It caused the Palins a large amount of personal embarassment and discomfort.....

Now look at the perp, a college kid with no prior record who did something incredibly dumb thinking it was funny, cute or whatever......He was not a political operative although the baseline for what he did was political....

He should be sentenced to 5 years and eligible for parole after 18 months.

A classy ending would be for Sarah to be present at the sentencing and ask for leniency for the kid....Possible alternative sentence of some sort....

But that’s just me....

[mentor2k]

WAIT A MINUTE!!!! This was just a prank, I didn't mean anything by it!!!!

[Buckeye McFrog]

defense using perepmtory challenges to find jurors who are not online

[savedbygrace]

In their written communication to the judge this afternoon, the jurors said: "Some of us feel not all jurors are following the jury instruction."

Those would be the Obama jurors.

You had to know there are some of them on the Jury, like this guy:
