Tough Titties, I like this magistrate…

A story from my soon to be home town (Only about 10 days before I move).

My fathers business was one of the ones raided by these shits, in the burg they smashed my work computer, fortunately we were able to retrieve all the info on it of it would have cost multiple thousands of dollars.

Any way one of the dickheads who robbed the old man had his day in court, where he asked the magistrate not to inconvenience him in his sentencing.

The magistrates reply?

TOUGH TITTIES!

Magistrate Ed de Vries has told an accused man “tough titties” when asked to schedule a court date around a motorcross event in Perth.

What can I say, its beautiful!

Mr Turner’s defence also said his client wanted to work his court appearances around travel plans to Perth he and his girlfriend had made before he was charged.

Mr De Vries rejected the request, responding with, “tough titties”.

Compare it to this case in the UK, where a magistrate was castigated for calling a couple of scum what they were.

“A magistrate who described two boys as “absolute scum” for vandalising Blackburn Cathedral has been warned he could face disciplinary action.

Austin Malloy has been removed from his post as chairman of the bench while he is investigated by the court.”

Because we dont want to hurt their poor widdle feelings do we?

The case for death, Narkle should die.

This man (and I use the term loosely indeed) is one of the worst scum ever to walk Western Australia’s streets. Over the years he has been convicted of over a dozen rapes and sexual assaults on women, children and men. The vast majority of his crimes have been committed while on probation and he has spent nearly half his life in jail. 30 years of rape and sexual assaults and he still walks the earth

Heres his latest outrage.

ACCUSED sex offender Garry Narkle took a sickly homeless man back to his caravan and supplied him with drugs and alcohol before raping him throughout the night, a Perth judge has heard.

In addition hes the chap who’s conduct over the last 30 years has been so bad the law has been amended (unsuccessful) to keep him detained.

In August last year, 50-year-old Gary Narkle was jailed for six months after pleading guilty to indecently touching a 46-year-old woman in an Armadale delicatessen in 2005.

With his prison tats obscured by makeup, he looks quite different.

He has worked out a “style” of attack now, he often targets the mentally ill, mentally handicapped or substance abusers. This serves 2 purposes.

A: They are probably least likely to report the assault

B: When they get to court his pond scum lawyers will claim the victims evidence isnt reliable. In effect he has been given a “pool” of people he can assault without fear of being caught.

Heres a TV special transcript on repeat offenders where he features heavily.

ROSS COULTHART: Former policeman Wayne Goodsell investigated Narkle for the attack on Grace 20 years ago. He has watched on in despair as Narkle has continually been released from jail, only to reoffend.

WAYNE GOODSELL, FORMER WA POLICE DETECTIVE: We are putting one person, his liberty, in front of two million people in Western Australia. Now, that doesn’t equate to me.

ROSS COULTHART: Because you’re that convinced he will offend again?

WAYNE GOODSELL: Absolutely. Have no questions whatsoever. Look me in the eye, I can assure you, he will offend again.

ROSS COULTHART: Within weeks of us interviewing Grace and Wayne Goodsell, new allegations were made against 50-year-old Narkle. In May, Gary Narkle was accused of raping a 16-year-old girl in the car park of a church, here in Armidale. He was also later charged with indecently assaulting a 46-year-old woman, in February.

……..

ROSS COULTHART: In WA, serial rapist Gary Narkle walked free last year because his 14th known victim declined to testify against him for a fourth time. Earlier this year, we met his first victim, the woman he raped 20 years ago.

‘GRACE’, RAPE VICTIM: I have no doubt in my mind that he will continue to get more and more violent and I’m terrified that one day that he will kill.

I have a personal interest in this case for a couple of reasons. Around 12 years ago I was working in the secure unit of WA major psychiatric hospital “graylands” I was there as part of the immigration departments duty of care to a detainee who had been committed. While there Mr Narkle was admitted having had a breakdown of some sort in Prison.

He looked just like his photos, hes tiny, wiry and wouldnt last long in a fight against anyone “normal” size.

By that stage I had been asked to “blend in” with the patients on the ward, as my uniform had made a few nervous, so I was by that stage being paid to wear civvies and read a book all day in the common room of the clinic. I may have blended in a little to well as on one occasion one of the staff offered me sedatives around medication time….

Anyway back to Narkle. He had been buzzing around the ward talking to various people when he sat down and began to talk to me. It was like looking into a maggot filled basin of brains.

He told me how “good little girls are”, how “they all loved it when he did them”, that “he could get any girl he liked”, and so on.

I have a habit of letting people continue talking  when they start, regardless of what they are on about, its a good way of learning what makes people tick. But I could only stomach about 10 minutes of Narkle before I stood up over him and told him “If you dont fuck off away from me now Im going to knock you down and stamp your balls flat”, Narkle stopped talking and didnt come near me again. I sincerely regret having not done that rather than threatening the man, if I had done so it may have prevented a number of assaults on girls/women.

Heres the funny thing, within 2 days he had everyone, patients and staff hating him, even the mentally ill were disgusted by him.

I left Graylands before he was released back to prison but if I had to make an uneducated guess Id say his breakdown was he was saying exactly what he thought, with no lying.

In addition, when hes outside he often wears makeup to cover over his distinctive tattoos, and his victims are almost always smaller or less physically capable than him. Hes a true predator.

Fast forward to last year, Ive met my brothers new girlfriend for the second time and we are all on the piss at the pub. Narkle was in the news so I started on my graylands story, when my brother dug my ribs from behind as a hint to shut up.

It turns out his new lady had been raped by Narkle 20 odd years ago, in addition to the rape they jammed a stick up her, nearly killing her from the blood loss.

She spoke to me about it later on, and how it had wrecked her for a decade of self abuse and feelings of worthlessness.

Id like Mr Narkle to die. Not imprisoned, not on bail, not supervised. Id just like to see him not walking the earth anymore in any shape of form. Hes exactly the inspiration for a lynch mob.

PS: The sad thing is ive met his parents, they are as nice and respectable coulple as you could meet. How they were cursed with such a bad seed is beyond me.

Carl Williams: dead

Arguably Australia’s most notorious, and certainly most high-profile, well-known gangster, Carl Williams, died today in prison. And it looks like he was attacked for doing deals with the police vis a vis the cops paying $8000 for his daughter to attend a top private school – a story that was in the papers mere hours before Williams was attacked. He sustained head injuries then went into cardiac arrest.

Williams (and this is for any non-Aussie readers) was the main character on the Australian television series, Underbelly Season 1 (clips), which documents Melbourne’s gang wars from 1995 to 2004. He took over Melbourne’s ecstasy and amphetamine market during that time. Most of his prison sentence was for ordering contract killings.

UPDATE

Derryn Hinch isn’t mourning.

Others, on Facebook, are. And that’s one of a few Facebook pages already up.

UPDATE II

For better or for worse, like it or not, Carl Williams, like the bushrangers before him, has become part of Australian folklore.

US Citizen? Sign the petition against cap n’ trade

If you’re a man-made global warming sceptic, or if you think the science perhaps isn’t settled, or if you are worried about a potential communist world government, or if you are worried about giant non-sovereign world taxes being imposed on all of us, or if you think the governments of this world already have too much power, or even if you’re not convinced yet either way, and don’t want a road paved that there’s no turning back on in just two short weeks, then sign this petition.

SIGN HERE

People literally right now are speaking at Copenhagen presenting the other side to this man-made CO2-driven man-made climate change/global warming argument. They will also be speaking tomorrow. Time is of the essence.

UPDATE

This post differs from the original. It came from watching the latest Monckton videos (the end of Part 4 of which part 1 was posted by 1.6 below), about a GLOBAL problem – but unfortunately only US citizens can sign that petition. Hence, first update removed, replaced with this.

Supervillans unmasked!!!

Police used all their cunning to bring to justice a pair of master criminals. Full kudos to the constabulary for their swift work in penetrating the disguises of these Jokers in training…

Yes thats magic marker.... mensa refused to confirm or deny if this pair are active members.

Two accused burglars in the US who covered their faces with permanent marker as a disguise were arrested soon after an apartment robbery with their faces still blackened.

 

Only in Texas??

Pure evil

Definitely not for the feint-hearted. In fact, all of this post is going below the fold. It happened to a nine-year-old Korean girl known as Na-young. The 57 year old man is Jo Du-sun.

Polanski Epilog: Prosecutor Lied about Judge in Documentary

Instead of making yet another update to my original post on this sordid subject, I thought this amazing revelation deserved it’s own place in infamy. Besides, the previous post had already reached proportions well beyond merely epic.

“(CNN) — A retired prosecutor whose comments in a 2008 HBO documentary threatened to derail a 31-year-old sex case against film director Roman Polanski now says he lied.

David Wells told CNN’s Wolf Blitzer on Thursday that he “buttered up” his role in the Polanski case for the documentary crew. He said he lied about trying to goad a judge to sentence Polanski to prison in 1978 for having sex with a 13-year-old girl.

Wells’ comments in “Roman Polanski: Wanted and Desired” raised questions of judicial misconduct and spawned Polanski’s most recent effort to get the case dismissed. But the legal challenge stalled when Polanski refused to return to the United States, where he faced certain arrest.

“I made these imprudent comments, just to liven it up a little,” Wells said. “In retrospect, it was a bad thing to do, and I never knew this thing was going to be shown in the United States.””

I’m surprised that a lawyer would lie – AAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAaaa – to stoke his ego – OOOOHOHOHOHOHOHOOOooo – and brag – EEEEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEEEEeee… Okay, so I’m not.

This documentary, you see, was the fig leaf that the leftards were using to hide their shame behind while they rationalized that Polanski should be freed. So now I’m expecting them all to recant and say that roamin’ Roman should finally face justice…

… ~crickets~ …

I’m kidding, of course.

Oh, and did you know that Polanski and Nastassja Kinski were lovers?… When she was just fifteen years old? Seems Roman is a classic pedophile, and not just a one-time offender.

Just when I thought this couldn’t get any weirder.

The Indefensibility of Defending Roman Polanski

This really is too much.

“The festival has been “unfairly exploited” to secure Polanski’s arrest over a case that is “all but dead,” said U.S. actress Debra Winger, president of the film event’s jury.

“Despite the philistine nature of the collusion that has now occurred, we came to honor Roman Polanski as a great artist,” Winger said in a statement read to reporters.

“We hope today this latest order will be dropped,” Winger said. “It is based on a three-decade-old case that is all but dead except for a minor technicality.””

Yes, and what is that “minor technicality”? Why, drugging and sodomizing a thirteen-year-old “minor,” that’s what the “technicality” is.

“Two weeks after Polanski plied her with Champagne and a Quaalude, Samantha Gailey appeared before an L.A. grand jury and recalled Polanski’s predatory behavior in a Mulholland Canyon home owned by Jack Nicholson.

The teenager’s troubling–and contemporaneous–account of her abuse at Polanski’s hands begins with her posing twice for topless photos that the director said were for French Vogue. The girl then told prosecutors how Polanski directed her to, “Take off your underwear” and enter the Jacuzzi, where he photographed her naked. Soon, the director, who was then 43, joined her in the hot tub. He also wasn’t wearing any clothes and, according to Gailey’s testimony, wrapped his hands around the child’s waist.

The girl testified that she left the Jacuzzi and entered a bedroom in Nicholson’s home, where Polanski sat down beside her and kissed the teen, despite her demands that he “keep away.” According to Gailey, Polanski then performed a sex act on her and later “started to have intercourse with me.” At one point, according to Gailey’s testimony, Polanski asked the 13-year-old if she was “on the pill,” and “When did you last have your period?” Polanski then asked her, Gailey recalled, “Would you want me to go in through your back?” before he “put his penis in my butt.” Asked why she did not more forcefully resist Polanski, the teenager told Deputy D.A. Roger Gunson, “Because I was afraid of him.””

Winger is far, far from the only leftard defending Polanski. Whoopie Goldberg admits Polanski raped the girl, “but it wasn’t rape-rape,” you see.

“Whoopi: “I know it wasn’t rape-rape. It was something else but I don’t believe it was rape-rape. He went to jail and and when they let him out he was like “You know what this guy’s going to give me a hundred years in jail I’m not staying, so that’s why he left.””

How mind bogglingly twisted and abjectly disgusting can rationalization get? Goldberg has to have redefined rationalization into some sort of psychotic disorder. The guy gave alcohol and prescription drugs to a thirteen-year-old girl and then sodomized her.

Let’s play a game of, “what if”: What if, instead of leftist darling filmmaker Roman Polanski we were talking about Rush Limbaugh? Would these leftards be falling all over their reputations – what little there is left of them – to defend him? The hypothetical answers itself.

I can tell you this, if that had been my thirteen-year-old-daughter, we wouldn’t be having this discussion, because I would have introduced Polanski to a .357 magnum all those years ago.

Despicable and disgrace are the only two words I can come up with to describe this leftist insanity, but they aren’t nearly powerful enough.

UPDATE: Now there’s a card leftards can wear to display their profound moral deficiency.

And, the list of the morally reprehensible grows.

“ZURICH, Switzerland (CNN) — Woody Allen, Pedro Almodovar and Martin Scorsese have “demanded the immediate release” of fellow filmmaker Roman Polanski, who was arrested in Switzerland on a U.S. arrest warrant related to a 1977 child sex charge.

They were among 138 people in the film industry who signed a petition against the arrest.”

Woody I’m not surprised by, but I’m deeply disappointed by Scorsese.

“”The arrest of Roman Polanski in a neutral country, where he assumed he could travel without hindrance … opens the way for actions of which no one can know the effects,” said the signatories, who also included actresses Monica Bellucci and Tilda Swinton and directors David Lynch, Jonathan Demme, John Landis, Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu and Wim Wenders.

In the United States, powerhouse movie producer Harvey Weinstein is trying to recruit more supporters for Polanksi.

“We are calling every filmmaker we can to help fix this terrible situation,” his company told CNN in a statement.”

Yes, it’s horrible that Polanski was arrested for evading justice for a crime that he plead guilty to. Considering the outrageous moral turpitude on display by the Hollyweirdos, I’m expecting to have to make more updates to this post.

UPDATE II – bing

The HuffPo is the latest Leftist mob to come out to bat for Polanski. However, to their credit, many readers aren’t buying it.

Tim Blair links to an informative piece about this.

UPDATE III: Phrench Phrog Philosopher BergnarDU-AhnrEE LevEE *cough, spit* leaves philosophy behind for madness.

“Apprehended like a common terrorist Saturday evening, September 26, as he came to receive a prize for his entire body of work, Roman Polanski now sleeps in prison.

He risks extradition to the United States for an episode that happened years ago and whose principal plaintiff repeatedly and emphatically declares she has put it behind her and abandoned any wish for legal proceedings.
Seventy-six years old, a survivor of Nazism and of Stalinist persecutions in Poland, Roman Polanski risks spending the rest of his life in jail for deeds which would be beyond the statute-of-limitations in Europe.”

Meanwhile, Ann Outhouse – a lawyer I don’t really detest – calls BergnarDU-AhnrEE out.

“Bernard-Henri Lévy, you present yourself as a philosopher. I would like to honor philosophy. Back up your petition with a philosophical argument that we can understand and critique.”

Don’t hold your breath, Ann. This guy’s a philosopher in his mind’s eye only. In reality, he’s an apologist for child sodomy.

UPDATE IV – bing

Quaaludes. Had never heard of them before today. Figured they were some kind of prescription drug that’d get you high, though. But anyway, I had a quick squiz on Wiki.

What a sick, meticulous, cunning, calculating predator.  Although it appears to be, this should not be a Left vs Right issue.

UPDATE V: The Undiscovered Quotation (Sorry for the oblique Star Trek reference):

I thought I had heard this years and years ago, but I just couldn’t be sure if I was remembering it right or not. Turns out I was.

Roman Polanski, 1979: “Everyone wants to fuck young girls!”

Um, Roman, dude… there’s a vast chasm of difference between an eighteen/nineteen-year-old college coed and a thirteen-year-old seventh grader! There’s even more of a difference between actually, you know, falling into mutual lust with one and getting it on versus getting one drunk, high, and then raping and sodomizing her.

Yes, we’re all sorry about Sharon – some of us are old enough to remember her – and yes, you’ve put together some marvelous films – Chinatown is a favorite of mine – but none of that gives you Carte Blanche to have your way with our children.

Kate harding gets it right.

“Roman Polanski raped a child. Let’s just start right there, because that’s the detail that tends to get neglected when we start discussing whether it was fair for the bail-jumping director to be arrested at age 76, after 32 years in “exile” (which in this case means owning multiple homes in Europe, continuing to work as a director, marrying and fathering two children, even winning an Oscar, but never — poor baby — being able to return to the U.S.). Let’s keep in mind that Roman Polanski gave a 13-year-old girl a Quaalude and champagne, then raped her, before we start discussing whether the victim looked older than her 13 years, or that she now says she’d rather not see him prosecuted because she can’t stand the media attention. Before we discuss how awesome his movies are or what the now-deceased judge did wrong at his trial, let’s take a moment to recall that according to the victim’s grand jury testimony, Roman Polanski instructed her to get into a jacuzzi naked, refused to take her home when she begged to go, began kissing her even though she said no and asked him to stop; performed cunnilingus on her as she said no and asked him to stop; put his penis in her vagina as she said no and asked him to stop; asked if he could penetrate her anally, to which she replied, “No,” then went ahead and did it anyway, until he had an orgasm.

Can we do that? Can we take a moment to think about all that, and about the fact that Polanski pled guilty to unlawful sex with a minor, before we start talking about what a victim he is?”

Indeed.

UPDATE VI – bing

From the court testimonial, already linked to, but worth noting. Serious. This whatever was seriously calculating, manipulative, opportunist… a true predator.

Of course, no point getting this stage prop pregnant. Yet he knew to ask Samantha when her period was. This is not drunken debauchery. This is calculated. And when he wasn’t sure due to her response?

THAT’S why he sodomized her. Just to be safe.

Read the whole transcript, please. He drugged Samantha, felt her up, fooled around with her, started raping her, yet was “alert” enough to check when her period was. Being not sure, he decided the “safest” option was to sodomize her. Then came a knock on the door. He got up, she started dressing again, still afraid. Then he fobbed off the woman knocking, went back, finished off quickly in her anus, then had her walk to the car. He had her wait there crying, whilst “talking” to the other woman, then drove her home.

And yes, what the fuck was her mum thinking letting her daughter go there in the first place?

BTW, “there” was Jack Nicholson’s house, although conveniently he wasn’t there.

Has he had contact with Polanski since?

This was not some “poor me, I had a tough life” crap. This was the worst of the worst. And brilliant as he is, Polanski needs to pay for the vile, cold, calculated, pre-meditated crime he committed.

Sotomayor’s supreme courting

I was hoping someone more up on the Yank scene would blog about this.  Just when a Leftist president appoints a judge and says things along the lines of  courts are where laws should be interpreted not made, it sends the bullshit-o-meter off the scale.

Confirmed.

More.

UPDATE

Funny. CNN International’s TV report into who she is concentrated on the housing project she came from, her bakery and her mom… et. al. that kind of stuff. They do better online, at least… at least sometimes.

One for the ladies, Restraining orders.

This post is intended to give  a little bit of advicefor ladies who may be seeking a restraining order against a violent or abusive ex-partner. (or weirdo)

Its written from an Australian legal perspective, but I think the general nature of the advice will be helpful to most people in this situation.

 

First off I’m not a lawyer, however I am a Justice of the Peace in Western Australia and am authorised to grant restraining orders, so I am speaking with a bit of legal knowledge on this subject.

 

One of my biggest worries with ladies that seek restraining orders is that often it is the woman who feels shame in seeking the order in the first place. I can understand some feelings of embarrassment, regret, or even “what the f#ck was I thinking”  regarding the situation, however it must be said the shame should be on the violator, not the victim.

To many times ladies feel the need to keep quiet, even to neighbours and friends, the fact that they have a person they are concerned enough about to be in fear of assault. This is all topsy turvey. Ladies, if you have been assaulted you aren’t to blame for anything other than misjudging the bloke you were with.

 

As for the blokes (and usually it is a bloke, so I will use the male as my example for simplicity) who do this. You are dickheads. If you were dumb enough to abuse a woman you pretty well automatically should be out of her life. You are no better than a bloke who kicks his dog or hits kids. Its not big nor is it clever.

If you beat or stalk women, this is you.

How to Place the Case of Baby Grace? UPDATED

UPDATE: Kimberly Dawn Trenor has been found guilty of capital murder in this case, and her sentence is life in prison without possibility of parole. Since she’s only twenty years old, that could amount to sixty to seventy years.

“GALVESTON, Texas — A mother was convicted Monday of capital murder in the beating death of her 2-year-old daughter during a daylong discipline session in which the toddler was whipped with belts and flung across a room like a rag doll.

A jury deliberated less than two hours before convicting 20-year-old Kimberly Dawn Trenor in the death of Riley Ann Sawyers. Trenor did not seem to show any emotion after the verdict was read. The conviction brought an automatic sentence of life in prison without parole.

Prosecutors did not seek the death penalty. Jurors could have also convicted her of two lesser charges.”

Let her rot.

For those of you late to this party…

“Trenor and her husband, Royce Clyde Zeigler II, were accused of killing the toddler during the July 2007 discipline session designed to teach her proper manners. Prosecutors said Trenor and Zeigler beat Riley with belts, dunked her head in cold bath water and threw her onto a tile floor, fracturing her skull and causing her death. Zeigler, also charged with capital murder, is being tried later and remains jailed.”

No news on whether prosecutors will seek the death penalty for Zeigler, but there couldn’t be a better case for it, IMO, and I’m generally against capital punishment.

ORIGINAL POST:

I agonized over whether or not to even post about Baby Grace because I find this case to be so deeply, deeply disturbing.

It’s not a complicated case. In a nutshell, this man…

Royce Clyde Zeigler II

… is accused of beating this little two-year-old girl…

Riley Ann Sawyers, aka Baby Grace

… to death, while her mother…

Kimberly Dawn Trenor

… watched.

Here’s the part that totally and completely eviscerated me:

“… Trenor did nothing to save her daughter, not even when Riley told her mother “I love you” as she was being beaten.”

Got that? As this little girl was being beaten to death she was telling her mother that she loved her, and her mother did nothing to save her.

I’m not at all ashamed to admit that I lost it at this point in the article, and I’m not talking about a few easily wiped away tears here, I’m talking about a raging, screaming, face-in-hands, anguished and protracted cry. In fact, I need to take a break from this post to re-compose myself right now.

*****

The more I thought about this abjectly pathetic case, the more troubled I became over the questions it raised in my mind. Sure, all civilized men and women of good will would be aghast and horrified by this outrageous insult to one so innocent, and so those first unanswerable whys and hows came obviously.

Here’s the thing: I read about horrors in the news all the time, as I’m sure any reader of this blog does, because we’re hyper-informed by a relentlessly sensationalist 24/7/365 news cycle these days, so the question that I wanted answered was why did this particular story reduce me to a shuddering fetal ball?

In the Muslim world, I read with boring regularity, “honor” killings of young women are numbingly routine, girls who simply want go to school are disfigured by having acid thrown in their faces, and rape victims are condemned to death and publicly executed. Equally grotesque types of stories emerge from sub-Saharan Africa and Asia with grim routine as well. Though disgusted and even enraged by such reports, they don’t drive me to tears. Why not?

Do you see why I’m becoming disturbed by the questions I’m asking myself? Will you understand if I’m reluctant to share my answers, and would rather that you simply ask yourself the same?

Another problem I have is this: Philosophically, I simply don’t think a person is a fully mature political entity until they’ve evolved into some form of libertarian. Like most, I reckon, I started out life as a liberal, evolved into a conservative, and then morphed into a libertarian. My views on the death penalty have followed suit: I was against it before I was for it, but now I’m against it again. Ultimately, I just don’t think a nation state should be in the business of executing its citizens, regardless of their crimes, because there is an absolute zero chance that capital punishment will be applied fairly, because human beings are involved.

So, you can understand my disappointment in myself when I tell you that I would honestly and sincerely like to execute these two monsters myself, personally.

How can our culture produce these utterly abominable kinds people? People devoid of all decency and conscience, seemingly oblivious to the rights of the most vulnerable in their midst?

“Trenor told police she and Riley moved from Mentor, Ohio, a suburb of Cleveland, to Spring, a suburb north of Houston, in June 2007 to be with Zeigler after she met him playing the online video game World of Warcraft.”

Far be it from me to issue a blanket condemnation of WoW – I haven’t played any kind of video game since I made it a mission in life to defeat Battle Chess on every skill level (Which I did, thank you very much) – because the world isn’t exactly rife with WoW players beating babies to death, and so there must be much more to it…

… and so the disturbing questions continue.

I don’t expect to have all, or even many, of these questions answered satisfactorily – such a thing seems far beyond the realm of possibility – so I’ll just have to take it as a plus to my overall humanity that I’m bothering to ask them of myself.

McCain’s Perfect Choice for a Running Mate: Governor Sarah Palin

While most of the pedantic, two-dimensional, inside-the-box-thinking, conservative political hacks are touting Tom Ridge for the slot (Not a bad guy, but…), David Freddoso notes a far superior choice has been proposed: The Republican Governor of Alaska, Sarah Palin.

I believe this is a truly inspired idea. Gov. Palin ran as an anti-corruption outsider, and handily defeated a corrupt and entrenched Republican political machine. Plus, at 44, she would almost totally wipe the “age issue” McCain has off the slate, and since Obama is only two years her senior, there is no way they could attack her for her youth and inexperience: She has much more executive experience than Senator Obama has.

Not to mention the fact that, she’s a gorgeous woman who exudes mass quantities of charisma…

and has a super-solid family life.

Dibs on the eldest daughter! LOL!

This inspired choice would allow McCain to actually capitalize on his “maverick” persona, as Gov. Palin shook Alaska politics to the core: She’s a charming, charismatic woman, but she can also play with the big boys and kick ass.

What say ye?

UPDATE: Things are looking optimistic!

UPDATE II: Welcome to all 4500 8000 40,000 in the past few hours (so far!) people visiting us from Google. We’re a fairly opinionated right-wing blog, and you might like to take a look at our “About” page. You might also be interested in our other coverage of Sarah Palin and whether she becomes a prospective Vice President of the United States. You can find this coverage here and here. Personally, I hope she does, but you can feel free to debate the idea in comments below. All first comments are moderated, but unless you either insult or use severe profanity (and I mean severe by my standards, which generally only means the C U Next Tuesday word or the implication that someone has had a rather enjoyable erotic experience with someone who has borne a child), however if you come up with a new one, I may simply delete your comment. I, and all other contributors to this blog are more than fair in what we permit.

UPDATE III: Nayr Drahcir, don’t bother even trying. You will not be published.

UPDATE IV: A lot of people must like Palin.

UPDATE V: More coverage of Governor Sarah Palin and a theme song here.

UPDATE VI: Funniest observation on the announcement yet: “Put Obama and Palin on a basketball court one on one. Winner takes all!”

UPDATE VII: [spot_the_dog] No, we do not have any pictures of “Sarah Palin + Naked,” nor do we have any of “Sarah Palin + Swimsuit.” In the past 24 hours, there have been 157 separate searches on this site for “Sarah Palin Swimsuit,” and 161 separate searches for “Sarah Palin Naked.” I repeat, we have no bathing suit, swim suit, bikini, or naked pictures of Sarah Palin. What kind of people do you think we are, anyway? 😉

UPDATE VIIa: [spot_the_dog] Ace has noticed a similar search phenomenon on his blog and has a theory…

Nuance!

A serial rapist has lashed out at police in a Melbourne court, hurling a glass of water at a detective and calling another officer a “f***ing dog”.

Sedat Avci, already serving time for crimes that saw him dubbed the northern suburbs serial rapist, exploded in anger after being sentenced to three years’ jail for an indecent act with an eight-year-old girl.

After being sentenced, Avci threw the glass of water on one detective from the dock and yelled “f***ing dog” at another.

“Tell them the f***ing truth you f***ing animal,” he yelled.

The shouting match continued as a group of the victim’s supporters gathered around the dock, one shouting: “You rape little girls”.

Avci’s father also argued with police during the clash.

A team of security guards was called to restore calm and keep the fighting parties apart.

The outburst happened moments after Victorian County Court Judge Carolyn Douglas left the court room.

She had just told Avci that he had shown some insight into his behaviour.

OUCH! Mark R. Levin SPANKS Doug Kmiec

Mark R. Levin, another one of, “the lawyers whose guts I do not hate,” absolutely totals Doug Kmiec. I mean, seriously, this is going to leave a mark (No pun intended).

“Doug Kmiec, I remember when you came to my office at the Justice Department — where at the time I was serving as associate deputy attorney general under Attorney General Ed Meese — seeking an appointment. I remember processing your papers and sending them to the White House for political clearance. I remember advocating for your appointment to a deputy assistant attorney general post in the Office of Legal Counsel and securing your appointment. And from there, Doug, you became the acting assistant attorney general for the Office of Legal Counsel in the last days of the Reagan administration. You have now used your resume to give cover to perhaps the most radical and unqualified person to be nominated for president. And your arguments on Obama’s behalf have been nothing short of dishonest. I am extremely disappointed in you. But my guess is you’ve earned a judgeship should Obama win the presidency. Frankly, sometimes you think you know somebody when, in fact, you don’t.”

Damn! The post is entitled “Dishonesty,” and it refers to this article.

“(CNSNews.com) – A top advisor to Barack Obama says, if elected president, the Democratic candidate will look to appoint Supreme Court justices in the mold of Justices Stephen Breyer and David Souter.

“Of course, he’s interested in people of integrity and competence, that’s a given,” Pepperdine University law professor Doug Kmiec told CNSNews.com. “He’s also indicated that he’s most attracted to the kind of justice represented by Justice Breyer and Justice Souter.”

Kmiec, who supports Obama and has been serving as a campaign “surrogate” for the Illinois Democratic senator, said Obama admires the qualities Souter and Breyer represent.”

Um, if you’re a lawyer and Mark Levin thinks you’re dishonest, well, that just has to suck, because Mr. Levin’s character is almost universally admired, even by his opponents… and lawyer-bashers like me.

Fred Baron Dies, and it’s Beer Friday!

“DALLAS (AP) — Frederick Baron, a prominent Democratic fund-raiser and wealthy Texas trial lawyer who built a fortune representing hundreds in asbestos exposure lawsuits, died Thursday. He was 61.

Mr. Baron, the national finance chairman for John Edwards’s [Another scumbag trial lawyer – Beef] Democratic presidential campaign in 2004 and whose link to the scandal of Mr. Edwards’s mistress this summer put him in an unwanted spotlight, died of complications from cancer, said Harrison Hickman, a family spokesman…

In August, Mr. Baron acknowledged sending money to the former mistress of Mr. Edwards, the 2004 vice-presidential nominee. Mr. Baron said Mr. Edwards had no involvement with the payments.”

At The Corner one poster said R.I.P. I say, good riddance to this scumbag leftist shyster who made millions off of the overblown asbestos scam and supported only leftist shyster-politicians who would work to further empower lawyers in our country. IOW, Fred Baron was an anti-American fuck and I’m glad he’s dead. As a Texan myself I’ve had to share my state with this putrid skuzz-bucket for decades. Enjoy hell, Fred.

Any. fucking. questions?

Now, I’m off to the store for some beers, which will taste especially crisp and refreshing tonight, in light of this news.

Huffington Post Political Writer Stabs Ex-Lover 220 Times…

Call me a heartless bastard – I’ve heard it all before – but this story strikes me as highly tragi-comic. In fact, stereotypically so.

Obama’s got to be hoping they voted early.

Obama Disables Credit Card Security to Enable Fraudulent Contributions

Okay, this is downright outrageous.

“I’ve read recent reports of the Obama campaign receiving donations from dubious names and foreign locales and it got me wondering: How is this possible?

I run a small Internet business and when I process credit cards I’m required to make sure the name on the card exactly matches the name of the customer making the purchase. Also, the purchaser’s address must match that of the cardholders. If these don’t match, then the payment isn’t approved. Period. So how is it possible that the Obama campaign could receive donations from fictional people and places? Well, I decided to do a little experiment. I went to the Obama campaign website and entered the following:

Name: John Galt
Address: 1957 Ayn Rand Lane
City: Galts Gulch
State: CO
Zip: 99999

Then I checked the box next to $15 and entered my actual credit card number and expiration date (it didn’t ask for the 3-didgit code on the back of the card) and it took me to the next page and… “Your donation has been processed. Thank you for your generous gift.”

This simply should not, and could not, happen in any business or any campaign that is honestly trying to vet it’s donors. Also, I don’t see how this could possibly happen without the collusion of the credit card companies. They simply wouldn’t allow any business to process, potentially, hundreds of millions in credit card transactions where the name on the card doesn’t match the purchasers name.

In short, with the system set up as it is by the Obama camp, an individual could donate unlimited amounts of money by simply making up fake names and addresses. And Obama is doing his best to facilitate this fraud. This is truly scandalous.”

But wait, there’s more.

“Kathryn, the reader who discovered that the Obama campaign accepts fraudulent donations also emailed me (unfortunately, while New Hampshire’s Third World Internet service was down again). I was interested in the subject because I also have an online credit-card operation over at my website (obviously a little smaller than Senator Obama’s), and so I looked into what our CC processing requires. In order to accept financial donations from “John Galt” and “Saddam Hussein”, whoever runs the Obama website would have to modify the default security checks required by their merchant processor…

As the Powerline reader has noted, if “John Galt” of “Ayn Rand Lane” attempts a contribution at the McCain campaign, it gets rejected. Which is just as well. If the Republican candidate’s website were intentionally set up to facilitate fraudulent donations, it would be on the front page of The New York Times. But, as it’s King Barack the Spreader, we can rest assured the crack investigative units will be too preoccupied with Governor Palin’s shoes over the next two weeks.”

If ACORN, the MSM and the Obama campaign machine manage to steal this election through all of this fraud – if the election is close and Obama wins in a squeaker, in other words – vast tracts of the US will not consider Obama as a legitimate president, and correctly so. There is no doubt in my mind that all of these criminal activities will be exposed, and there will be many, many prosecutions and convictions as a slow drumbeat to accompany an Obama administration. And then, of course, Obama could end up the second Democrat president in a row to be impeached. This time, however, there is no doubt in my mind that he will be removed from office, unlike Clinton.

If this scenario plays out, what do you think it will do for “race relations” in the US?

UPDATE: Ace has broken out The Flaming Skull.

“I say again: Try entering false addresses when ordering a $10 DVD from Amazon. You will get rejected.

And yet Barack Obama has overridden this basic security feature in order to allow the world to donate to him, and to rack up millions and millions in illegal over-the-limit donations.

Where.

Is.

The Fucking.

Cocksucking.

Media.

The hell with the media — Where is the fucking Attorney General?”

Gotta love Ace.

Reflecting On Times Past

Years ago, I undertook a course involving a lot of law subjects, one of which was Criminal Law.

I had a very good mate in that class, whose name I’ll protect, but we shall call her Diane. Diane was a fairly average student, while I was a particularly great one (High Distinctions all around, I’m afraid. Yes, I was a nerd!) and we had a few political differences, but considering she was more worried about clothes and becoming the next great actress, I just kind of wrote that off.

Until the day I learned who her cousin was.

Speaking of the…..(Courtesy, J.M.)

Supremes. Don Surber, publicizes a terrific idea along with, Republican Congressman Louie Gohmert of Texas who has a plan for those Gitmo detainees, it’s a terrific idea, titled Gitmo-ed.

The Crypt’s John Bresnahan did a little old fashioned checking of the public record and found that Gohmert has a bill in the hopper that would transfer those Gitmo detainees to the grounds of the Supreme Court in Washington, the Crypt reported.

The bill is HR 6615. Its title is “A bill to provide for the transport of the enemy combatants detained in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba to Washington, D.C., where the United States Supreme Court will be able to more effectively micromanage the detainees by holding them on the Supreme Court grounds, and for other purposes.”

John Edwards: America’s Answer to Prince Charles

BwAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAaaaa!

Senator Edwards Cornered by National Enquirer after Visiting Mistress and Mother to His Love Child.

I’d make some commentary here, but I have to go for a jog just now, so I’ll join you in comments.

That’s Getting Off Cheap!

Here’s the story. Two guys go out and have a few too many drinks, and being three sheets to the wind they climb on a docked boat and make a mayday call to the emergency services claiming that they’re on a boat with five people and it’s starting to sink. Half an hour later, they call back again, claiming that the boat has gone down and all five people, one of them being a pregnant woman, are now in the water.

So a whole bunch of people, including “Water Police, a naval patrol boat, local volunteers, ships owned by resource giants Woodside and Santos and police and private planes” go out, and they don’t find the boat. By this point, the two fuckheads involved are probably laughing their asses off or passed out.

After all these people have been out looking for some people in serious trouble for seven fucking hours, they call off the search, and start tracing where the call came from and who had made it.

They found the two kids who’d wasted the time and efforts of a whole lot of people who could have been responding to actual emergencies, and charged them. They were “convicted in April of creating a false belief regarding human safety and each was sentenced to a 12-month intensive supervision order and 200 hours of community service. The two knucklefuckers were also ordered to pay $43,980.69 each, which means they got off awfully cheap considering the search is estimated to have cost over $200,000.

They should be grateful.

Supreme Court Affirms 2nd Amendment 5-4

Links to all the details are here, but in a nutshell, the court struck down the D.C. handgun ban, and this will probably affect similar laws in Chicago and New York City.

Not sure if we dodged a bullet, or if they did.
