This incident is bound to produce highly charged and contentious trial. May top OJ Simpson saga. Ego and pride of French elite are bruised, and they will move heaven and earth to find a hole in the accusation leveled at Strauss-Kahn. Even if the charge itself turns out be unambigously true, the way the whole thing is to be handled would spur angry response. Whether he is guilty or not, it has a potential to strain relationship between two countries. Especially if the French start to convince themselves that he is being railroaded.

In response, French may cry double standard. He is charged and convicted for rape, but there is a certain well-known U.S. politician who successfully dodged the similar charges: Bill Clinton. Whether French used to like him or not is moot. They could use Clinton's case to get back at Americans.

"the managing director of the International Monetary Fund was the victim of a conspiracy"

As well he should be. The IMF needs to be axed.

In France perhaps. Not here. Most Americans don't care about this guy, to the point where few knew/know who he is. That won't change much, even with the media attention it will get. It's a French/New York angle story.

Knowing how the Chicago Thug mentality permeates the Stroker Regime, it wouldn’t surprise me at all to find that the French got this right.

What better way to assure the financial demise of the United States than to put someone of the “caliber” of a Timothy Geitner into the top slot of the IMF?

You have to know that George Soros would be more than willing and happy to finance and facilitate such a move. He is deeply imbedded into the inner workings of this Regime.

Given this guy's past, he is the perfect set-up victim if somebody thought he was about to say too much about the Greek situation or if the Powers That Be just wanted someone else in that seat or simply to warn to anyone else in the world financial hierarchy to shut their mouths about the systematic pre-collapse looting currently going on - or else.

Given this guy's past, he is just as likely to be 100% guilty as charged.

There is no good resolution to this one.

An avowed socialist that crashes in $3,000-a-night hotel rooms is exactly what his opponents nicknamed him - a champagne socialist. That’s $125-an-hour. You know what they say: $125-an-hour here, a $125-an-hour there - pretty soon you’re talking real money.

Strauss-Kahn was set up, French say

Yeah...Sure...Right. 100% predictable response from the wine-watering weenies.

Well, the one thing I find interesting is the woman is a muslim. And why would she say, what she said, if it weren’t true? We all know what muslims do with their rape victims.

Granted there is the Clinton incident but isn’t AlGore’s masseuse incident a closer parallel? Hotel staff (or contractor), unwanted advance, 2nd chakra and all that. At least Bill was impeached even if the Senate ducked. AlGore seems to be getting away with his incident (payoff?).

Dominique Strauss-Kahn,should have press like the Muslim and Chief does..If you have sex with a man then your sex will be covered up and no one mentions it again..and the person that told on you ends up in jail so no one can talk to him again until Obama is out of the white house.. Also I would like to know what Dominique Strauss-Kahn opinion of Muslim is,could it be he isn't pleased with them taking over France so the Muslims are afraid he will be their worse nigh mare if he is elected,could this Muslim woman that accused him be lying so his career is ruined and the Muslims man is elected..

Stranger things have happened especially when it come to politics ...I am not taking up for this man, heavens know I do not like anything to do with the French but could my question be answered about his opinion of the Muslims..

That's quite a set up.

IMF accuser in apartment for HIV victims

Dominique Strauss-Kahn may have more to worry about than a possible prison sentence. The IMF chief's alleged sex-assault victim lives in a Bronx apartment rented exclusively for adults with HIV...

San Francisco is trying to have him extradited to their court system. An old, rich French guy who likes anal sex? The boys are mad in Frisco that they missed this one.

The woman is unlikely to make it to any trial IMO. The pressure on her is awesome. The media is hounding her neighbors, claiming she has aids - lives in a aids apartment house, ts an African whore, and has received $$. The posters on CNN are 10 to 1 against her with convoluted theories of the “setup”. The progressives have one set of theories while others post reminders of the Duke DA or the disproven victim. Add to that the nature of the attorneys in this case and I’d say the victim is toast. Sad

Get back at us how? Clinton got caught red handed about Monica, but I don't remember him leaving the scene of a rape and jumping a plane to head to a country without extradition. As for the rape allegations against Slick and Pepe LePew, this maid went to the cops right away and pressed charges. Thet never happened to Slick. I don't understand all the grand conspiracies for a serial woman abuser finally getting caught in a country that actually has a dim view on that, unlike the filthy French.

I have a much easier time believing that a Socialist elitist Eurotrash phony with a disgusting history of abusing women did this than that this is a set up with absolutely no evidence of that even happened other than he was important, and important people could't do that.

Clearly he was set up, because who could resist the temptation of a middle-aged Muslim woman from Ghana with AIDS?

PLEEEZZZE.
So you French think it is perfectly acceptable for a naked old man to chase a housekeeper down the hall, drag her back to the room and REPEATEDLY sexually assault her.

WAS he set up. WHERE”S the payoff. Sudden infusion of money in her overdrawn account (?)? Or is she moving to a 5th ave townhouse?
I mean come on guys, why would ANY women subject herself to this if she wasn’t forced. After all how did she know he wouldn’t kill her?
