LOL - perfect!

[rintense]

HA! Poor guy.

[RedBloodedAmerican]

REDNECK! hehehe

[TankerKC]

Got it. Thanks.

[John Lenin]

Redneck ? Care to explain in English what you mean ?

[Kerberos]

"Got it. Thanks."

Great.

Thanks for the opportunity to go on a good rant. I feel much better now. :-)

[Richard Kimball]

Gee, I wonder if anyone has rounded up Boris Badenoff for questioning? ( See I can be funny too )

Well, I'll let others decide whether that one was funny, but please accept my apologies for assuming the reference was to race. I still believe that he would be far better served to have a PIO officer deliver the briefings, as being in front of the camera is not one of his strengths.

[RedBloodedAmerican]

I was being sarcastic. Some would criticize you for criticizing a black man. Hey, how's Hinckley these days?

Well let's see.....The metro DC force has managed to lock up one witness for providing misleading statements,(who has by the way been denied bail) and two undocumented hispanics who's big crime was driving a white mini-van and using a pay-phone. There are most likely some pretty good deals on used white vans in that area right now. Nobody will even take them out for a test drive.

In a just world this dirtbag who gave a false statement to the police should be flogged, IMO. But the fact that he gave false info to the police is not their fault. If anything, it is the failure of the "justice" system -- (e.g. the fact that he is on the street and not in jail). A typical three strikes plus careeer criminal, on the street thanks to the libs. And, the fact that the two illegals were caught up in this investigatiojn is not the fault of the police. The fault lies with ther FedGov (INS) for allowing them to be here in the first place. Again thanks to liberal policies.

[the guy on the phone has an accent of "undetermined origin".]

Where did you hear that?

If true, this has probably been withheld from the public for the same reason that the witness description has been withheld: the perp(s) is/are non-white and non-black. Gotta be careful with the "T" word now.

"Call back... message unclear"

Perhaps the good Chief doesn't understand French??? Have a look at this article on the British SKY NEWS website:

Soldier Is Sniper Suspect





A French soldier who went missing on a holiday trip to America is reported to have matched an image of the serial sniper terrorising Washington.



The soldier is reported to have been identified as the man in a US police sketch of the gunman who has killed nine people in the Washington area since October 2.

French officials confirmed a 25-year-old soldier from the prestigious Saint-Cyr military academy deserted after leaving for a holiday to the US in August.

Academy

He did not return to the academy in the northern coastal region of Brittany, where he was training to be a second lieutenant in the army.

Fellow students are said to have identified the soldier from the sketch, which has not been made public.

But French Defence Ministry spokesman Jean-Francois Bureau could not confirm the reports.

"At this stage, we have absolutely no certainty that this military deserter is the Washington sniper," Bureau said.

"We have reported that a soldier training to be a second lieutenant at Saint-Cyr who left for a holiday in Canada and the United States in August did not return in September when classes resumed," the Bureau said.

French

Bureau did not give the man's name or town of origin but said he was French.

"There has been no contact between him and his family since he left for the United States," he added.

The man was reported as a deserter to police in October and his details were sent to the international police force, Interpol.

A spokesman for the Foreign Ministry declined to add further details, saying merely that French authorities were exchanging information with their US counterparts.

"We are naturally providing US authorities with all the information we possess," ministry spokesman Francois Rivasseau said.

Between the big mouth media and the MooseMan, it's hard to tell who has contributed to more killings than may have been necessary had these idiots not been grandstanding.

I for one am sick of the screwups and the media talking heads asking such questions as which roads aren't being checked, how can the sniper defeat the spyplane, etc. and so forth.

[Lucas1]

Yeah from reading all of that I can see why everyone is calling him an idiot..stupid...and ignorant. /sarcasm off

Again...why is everyone jumping on this guy. Let's all start bashing Bush for not getting Bin Laden. No logic in it at all...

Maybe the real idiots are the posters on this forum...at least some of them

[Mad_Tom_Rackham]

[Most likely the number given to the police was a voice mail-type number]

I thought this, too. That's why ... we received your message, we are working on the response. If there had been a live respondent to the phone, the caller would have known it had been received.

Agreed. These tip lines are probably not manned, but are answered by recorders. Too bad.

[RedBloodedAmerican]

Empty suit. You aren't familiar with him. Don't be impressed by someones resume' alone.

[jellybean]
