I think Ajai Raj implies he's going to set up a dealer and wear a wire to get his drug posession case dismissed. One ounce marijuana posession in Texas is fairly serious if I'm not mistaken.

Raj wrote:To make an already abbreviated story even more so, my attorney says he can get the charges dismissed. The law is sticking all kinds of fingers in my assh*le right now, but with a few savvy business deals, I can plow through this sh*t and come out smelling like roses. Ironic, really—to get out of this drug charge, I’m forced to arrange bigger drug deals than I ever intended to. C’est la vie, non?

Maybe a good idea to contact the Austin DA as well as UT Austin.

[[He handed the bag to me and we went on our way -- four longhaired hippies who had had the good luck to run into the dumbest cop in the most backwards state in our union.]]

Finn,

I just read the article to the link that you posted. This rotten little dope smoking, maggot infested, scrougy hippy wannabe is the most intolerant liberal in the world. Read the whole article people and you will feel his hate for authority, middle America, and the rule of law.

Extreme editorial comment in a supposed straight news story.

It is auniversity. It is in Berkley East (Austin).

Don't be mean.

Hey! It's one of the Gin Blossom's!

[Teflonic]

I read his story of his pot arrest and all I can say is I wonder if his parents read it? His soul is in a very dark place and hypocrisy seems to be his creed.

"My my. Ann has such mature enemies."

Speaking of the maturity of Ann's enemies, who was that extreme left wing (heh,heh) MSNBC talking head who highlighted his show by mutilating an Ann Coulter action figure? I can't remember his name. Wasn't Chrissy Matthews but one of the other resident leftist wackjobs.

The ISO was the first radical Left organization I encountered. I attended a conservative conference at Columbia University of all places in Novemeber 1998, as a freshman in college, and on the second day of the conference, after it had been basically kicked off the campus, they protested us as we held a meeting in Morningside Park. They truly hate conservatives. When I asked one of their members for a copy of their publication, he asked for money, and when I persisted, he reluctantly gave me a copy.

INTERNATIONAL SOCIALIST ORGANIZATION

Anti-American, anti-capitalist Communist organization
Present on many American campuses
Opposes the Patriot Act and the War on Terror

Evoking the Communist tradition of Karl Marx, Leon Trotsky and Vladimir Lenin, the Chicago-based International Socialist Organization (ISO) aspires to “organize activists in workplaces and communities and on campuses in order to mobilize opposition to all forms of oppression and exploitation.” With capitalism its avowed enemy, the ISO places the blame for the world’s social ills on America, and more specifically the Republican Party, calling President Bush the “bigot-in-chief,” and describing the “dynasty” of the Bush family as a “virus.”

Founded in 1977, the ISO traces its intellectual antecedents to Trotskyism, and to a rejection of Shachtmanism, so named after Max Shachtman, the onetime head of the Socialist Workers Party; Shachtman and his followers generally supported the hard-line Cold War-era stance against Communist expansionism, which it correctly recognized as a more violent and vile exploitation of people than anything capitalism has yet designed. Still, the ISO does reject the state-sponsored Communism found in China, Cuba, and the old USSR, on the grounds that those states merely create structures to alienate workers from their labor and the sources of capital in the same way that the Western democracies do.

The ISO claims the need for permanent workers’ revolutions on an ongoing basis, in the tradition of Trotsky and his denunciation of the Stalinist state. The ISO maintains an educational program calling for socialist workers revolutions at a variety of venues, including work places and college campuses. It claims that all the evils of the world, including poverty, environmental issues, war, and famine, are the direct result of capitalism.

Intellectually, the ISO bases its contentions on analyses of Eastern-bloc economies that critiqued the state-sponsored capital systems of those countries and called for a strenuous rejection of the state model; maintained that Western prosperity in the Cold War era was largely maintained only by massive defense spending; and accepted the theory of deflected permanent revolution to account for workers’ failures to take over Third World countries (fundamentally, an absence of an intelligentsia capable of sustaining the bourgeoisie democratic stage of revolution).

The ISO website maintains links to the websites of numerous socialist groups in France, Australia, and Ireland. The organization's announced plan of action is decidedly international in scope. In 2000, the ISO attracted a large number of new members when it by worked for the presidential campaign of the Green Party’s Ralph Nader. The following year, a small group of ISO members broke away from the group and created a new organization called Left Turn. Currently, the ISO claims a membership of approximately 1,000 and publishes the weekly newspaper Socialist Worker, whose articles condemn capitalism and imperialism, and whose editorials call for “militant workers” to form a “revolutionary socialist party.” It also publishes the journal Socialist Review. In addition to its national office in Chicago, the ISO maintains six regional branches.

Among the ISO's official policies are a rejection of U.S. intervention in Iraq and Afghanistan, an effort to inspire anti-war sentiment on college campuses (particularly by creating fears of a renewed draft), pushing for greater rights for illegal immigrants and completely open borders, and the condemnation of capital punishment.

Despite an ostensibly bold “Who We Are” link, the ISO website discloses no names of the group’s leadership. The links to the regional leadership web addresses reveal only a list of aliases and non-entities.

The ISO is a member organization of the United for Peace and Justice anti-war coalition. It disparages the Patriot Act and other government efforts to strengthen national security as malicious assaults on civil liberties.

The ISO views terrorism against U.S. targets and those of America’s allies (most notably Israel) as the desperate actions of people who have been treated unjustly for too long by those nations. Regarding the 9/11 hijackers and Palestinian suicide bombers, for instance, the ISO asserts, “They weren’t born wanting to become suicide bombers. But their lifetimes of humiliation . . . made them open to terrorism as a means to avenge their oppression.”

The ISO endorsed the 2002 Market Workers Justice Campaign of the activist coalition Communities in Solidarity with Immigrant Workers. This campaign called for increased wages and benefits for Korean and Latino immigrant workers, including those living illegally in the United States.

The ISO was also a signatory to a February 20, 2002 document, composed by the radical group Refuse & Resist, condemning military tribunals and the detention of immigrants apprehended in connection with post-9/11 terrorism investigations. Titled “National Day of Solidarity with Muslim, Arab and South Asian Immigrants,” the document read, in part, “[T]hey [the U.S. government] are coming for the Arab, Muslim and South Asian immigrants. Based on their racial profile, over 1500 have been rounded up and the government refuses to say who they are, where they are jailed and what the charges are!!! Already, a Pakistani man has died in custody. Who will be next? The recent ‘disappearances,’ indefinite detention, the round-ups, the secret military tribunals, the denial of legal representation, evidence kept a secret from the accused, the denial of any due process for Arab, Muslim, South Asians and others, have chilling similarities to a police state. We will not allow our grief for the tragedy of September 11 to be used to justify this new repression. We are clear that being an immigrant is not a crime; Muslims, Arabs and South Asians are not terrorists.”

"How do you feel about marriages where the man does nothing but f--- his wife up the ass?"

Just last August, they were trying to crucify Dick Cheney for cussing on the Senate floor. Nope, no hypocrisy there.

[MrBambaLaMamba]

"... How do you feel about marriages where the man does nothing but f--- his wife up the ass? ..."

To the socialist this was a pejorative question because of the key word "wife".

[End Times Sentinel]

Conservatives do the same thing when they wax apoplectic over Michael Moore.

 

I don't know about "wax apoplectic" is an accurate description.  The difference of course, is that what Ann writes is true and she can back up and document that.  What Michael Moore puts in his books and films are lies and any moron can back up and docuement that.

 

While the author makes some valid points, his inability or unwillingness to see that difference is somewhat perplexing.

Is UT still in Texas? Oh that's right, Austin has become the Berkeley of the Southwest.

Its just about the only place in Texas where one still sees Clinton/Gore/Kerry bumber stickers...loosers!

I found about this Monday. There was a small blip in the Newsmakers section of A-1 in the Austin Rag. My neighbor went to this, as her daughter is a UT student.

Students were the only ones allowed to buy tickets, but she had some extra ones and her parents got to go. I had to take care of my wife, as she had a medical test done yesterday.

Does anyone here remember in the 60's the line..."The commies are gonna take over without ever having to fire a shot"? Lib professors and socialist/communist activists have been busy since "the Wall" was brought down. They are very much like a cancer on America. My hat is off to Ann For standing up to and making fun of these soul-less, anti-American asses.

[PISANO]

His parents must be so proud.

Sure they are.....the foundation, for principles, are laid in the home.

This village idiot is the poster boy of the LEFT!!!
