The American President decided to carry out a personal grudge against the President of Iraq and tricked the British PM into going along with him. While he was growing up, Bush kept hearing how his daddy should have finished the job in 1991 and taken out Sadaam Hussein. So he decided to take International Law into his own hands by invading Iraq, overthrowing its government, murdering the leader's two sons, and killing thousands of innocent people in the process. Need we say more?
after he cleared out death row, so they had him indicted for some political crap that happened before they voted him in as governor, blaming him along the way for killing six kids.
Jurors are like sheep, and that goes for grand jurors as well. Not ONE grand juror ever questioned why I wanted to have someone charged with a crime. Just a rubber stamp. People seem to think that because the U.S. Attorney or the F.B.I. say something, it's the word of GOD. And tell me what % of defendants are actually acquitted in Federal Court. Fair trial, my ass. Just look at some of the things being posted here and see how many people are willing to convict Blagojevich when they don't know shit about the case.
for anything. If you people don't start to revolt against this abuse of authority by federal prosecutors, then who's going to have any sympathy for you when Patrick Fitzgerald has YOU indicted on some bullshit charge. Just imagine if your house was under constant surveillance by the F.B.I. I'm sure if he wanted to, Fitzgerald could find some reason to prosecute YOU. They had to arrest Blagojevich at his home? What, they couldn't fucking wait until he came downtown?
let the War Crimes Tribunal at the Hague deal with the likes of Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, et.al. It's about time the U.S. rejoined the international community, which Bush rejected solely so he could operate outside the law (or so he thought).
and the everyday discourse of people in all walks of life. Even if the President-elect happened to adore "gangsta-rap" or "hip-hop', it doesn't mean he's going to go around saying "hello all you n****** and m*****f*****' bitches and 'ho's, I'm goin' to be pres-o-dent!". People should have the right to create any kind of artistic kitsch they choose , no matter how crass and vulgar.
to try to blame someone other than the person responsible.(Deep pocket theory) No one should be held criminally, OR CIVILLY, liable for an unforeseen, intervening criminal act by another. How absurd to think otherwise. How many of you would like it if you were sued just because some maniac entered your place of business and started shooting people?
ramming their pro-Vietnam War propaganda down your throat, and such memorable lines as JANSSEN: "Are those what you call punji sticks?" SOLDIER'S REPLY: "Yeah, but we don't dip 'em in the same stuff charlie does." "WHAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT HERE IS COMMUNIST DOMINATION OF THE WORLD!" It's a good thing we stuck it out and won that war. Oh, wait. I'm thinking of Iraq. No,wait. Now I'm confused.
At O'Hare International Airport on the busiest arrival day of the year, the day before Thanksgiving, cars will be lined up three wide for a mile to pick people up at Arrivals, waiting up to an hour when they could just tell their passengers to take the escalator up to Departures and pick them up there, come and go in two minutes , with no traffic , no waiting, no hassle whatsoever! Explain that one.
