[Never on my watch]

Headline only

[Dayman]

We may just have to wait for the trial to find out. One thing is sure, it’s going to be widely covered by the media and here on FR.

[Doogle]

"...utoh, hold up the assembly line!, there's a design change on dat bobble head doll"

[Gondring]

Do women “normally” call the police like this co-ed did?

[Gabrial]

Looks like the Democrats are upgrading their candidates.

[Kozak]

Gee, most Rats wait to get elected first....

[Mad Dawgg]

"Gee, most Rats wait to get elected first...."

See the Democrat Party Elites are mad Alvin beat out their candidate so they are going to get him thrown out prior to the election so they can put their man on the ballot as the Democrat nominee in place of Alvin Green.

Apparently, it was charged as a violation of South Carolina law:

SECTION 16-15-305. Disseminating, procuring or promoting obscenity unlawful; definitions; penalties; obscene material designated contraband.

(A) It is unlawful for any person knowingly to disseminate obscenity. A person disseminates obscenity within the meaning of this article if he:

(1) sells, delivers, or provides or offers or agrees to sell, deliver, or provide any obscene writing, picture, record, digital electronic file, or other representation or description of the obscene;

(3) publishes, exhibits, or otherwise makes available anything obscene to any group or individual;

(H) A person who violates this section is guilty of a felony and, upon conviction, must be imprisoned not more than five years or fined not more than ten thousand dollars, or both.

It's hard to believe that the offense is still being prosecuted in these Internet porn-tsunami days. Maybe there were some REALLY aggravating factors. More likely, there are some really aggravated Democrat party officials who have pull with the DA.

Either way, watching Democrats rip flesh off each other and commit political cannibalism makes for good entertainment.

LOLOL!
But each thread would be 40 pages long.
This made me laugh because I attempted to respond to an email today without my glasses, and it was pathetic.

Not at all. Most women on a college campus have a way thicker skin than this. This is a case of “bad behavior”, but not a criminal one. She is bought and paid for. This Alvin Greene character is certainly not fit for the Senate, but I don't want to see this military veteran’s life ruined by someone politically vindictive.

[Einherjar]

There HAS TO be a way we can pin this one on George Bush ..........Hasta be ,

[Red Steel]

Is the District Attorney a Democrat and part of the Democratic power structure in the state. You know the people who were upset when their guy lost?

Likely. If he is, the Dems are using their dirty playbook that was recently played by Mike Nifong and Ronnie Earle on an outsider Demo.

[Drew68]

Was the college student underage?

No, she was 18.

[SPI-Man]

This HAS to be racism on the part of the Democratic party. I mean if anything is said bad about an AA they jump all over it. Why is their attempt to get this poor black man off the ballot not racism?

[Girlene]

Unlike other Demoncrat candidates, he has absolutely NOTHING to lose by staying in the race. If the dems are expecting him to step down for the sake of the party or for the good of the State, they are really mistaken.

If he stays in and loses, he will get his own reality show.

Bingo. Here's an example of a campaign "attack ad" from earlier this year. Vote Alvin Greene!

[kevslisababy]

He needs a legal defense fund! I’d contribute a buck. Just got to keep it going for a couple months.

[SeattleBruce]

“The charges could bring him a 3 year minimum stay in jail.”

He best hurry up and get elected (as a RAT) so he doesn’t have to do any time for crimes...

[SeattleBruce]

“But he has one important qualification (think melanin)”

This is so far from Dr. King’s dream - aint it?

[potlatch]

“Pick me - so I’ll stay free”, democrat motto!

Gads, how much lower can they get?

[raybbr]

If doing what he did is a felony, nearly every male college student would be going to prison.

Yeah, since when is this a felony? This is clearly an attempt to salvage the ballot.

[raybbr]

I dunno -- couple days, maybe. Man, I wish all the posts were this big! I wouldn't need my bifocals.
