"Mr. Hoey, the university spokesman"

Mr. Whooeee

When I saw it, I mentally pronounced it that way, and thought, "You just can't make up stuff like this".

ROFLMAO

this is OUTER SPACE, PLAN 9. repeat.

...one of the strangest (ape in the space suit :) movies ever (Ed Wood directed)...poor old Bela Lugosi. :^)

[Lancey Howard]

LMAO, just because the whole thing was a hoax doesn't mean that a murderous pig like Ted Kennedy can't use the story to smear the President.

This story fits in with the mentality of ultra-libs many of whom see themselves as brave truth warriors challenging the evil Bush admin. They concoct these tales and convince themselves that it should be true therefore it must be true. Since most ultra-libs live in a fantasy world of nasty, old conservatives always trying to oppress "progressives", there obviously comes a time when most libs cannot separate truth from fiction. Which for libs starts at an early age and is a daily occurrence.

That little red book is a little read book.

The radical left loves Mao. We all know that.

I hope the UMass Dartmouth student is having a Mao-y Christmas!

"Um, why is this kid's name being withheld? What valid reason is there to do that? He wasn't raped, and never requested anonymity as a source. Hmmm...."

Ahh, because mohammed el salam is over used? Check the radiation, faster please.

Thanks, I can't believe I left out the links.

"?Why would Williams deny he was involved?"
The legal profession has a term for this:
"guilty mind"

[nuclady]

Hmmm ...... Not only his identity - I would like to know who the identities are of all the senders of messages to his cell phone!!!!! Think we need a warrant??? :)

[pookie18]

No problem...I wanted to post the article in a Usenet newsgroup so did a Google search under News. As it turned out, I ended up using a Boston Globe article instead because it mentioned how Ted Kennedy & some news organizations had run with the false story...

It's the seriousness of the charge that we need to consider here. we will sort everything out after a thorough investigation. Let's not forget that we nailed Scooter Libby even though there was no crime committed. We need to get our enemies in front of a Grand Jury. If we can do that, then we can make them lie, technically, and an indictment is duck soup.

And Tookie is still dead.

Dead?? Dead, you say??
