Chicago: There’s Smoke, But Is There Fire?

As far back as 1871, Chicago has been reputed as a city with a shady political scene. In fact, Chicago’s reputation has earned it a statement from the head of the FBI Office in Chicago, in which he said “If Illinois isn’t the most corrupt state in the United States, it’s a strong competitor.”

Which just makes this event, which was held between December 7 and December 10 this year, absolutely hilarious. Yes, you read that right, Chicago hosted the 30th Annual Governmental Ethics Conference.

So when the Democratic Governor of Illinois got arrested in the three day window for this Governmental Ethics Conference, my sides ached. I’m not going to speculate on the guilt or innocence of Governor Rod Blagojevich, although it appears based on media reports that there is good reason for the FBI to be investigating the Governor.

Even more intriguing is the question of whether President-elect Barack Obama knew anything about Gov. Blagojevich’s actions. As many know, Obama was born as a political figure in the Chicago Democratic Machine. But whether he knew that people in the Democratic Party would sell his Senate seat to the highest bidder? I highly doubt it. However, I wouldn’t rule out that he may have suspected that such business may go on after he became President-elect.

There are a couple of links between the President-elect and Governor Blagojevich, although they’re far from conclusive. They were both members of the same party in the same city, and would almost certainly have met at social Party events and all kinds of varied events in Illinois.

Another point of interest is that the son of David Axelrod, Obama’s chief astroturfer advisor, allegedly once worked in Gov. Blagojevich’s office. I can accept that there are all kinds of networks in any given city, but something about this makes Obama’s uninvolvement look a touch suspect. After all, Axelrod was the chief driving force behind both getting Barack Obama nominated as a Presidential candidate, and if Axelrod’s son worked for Governor Blagojevich, then Axelrod and Blagojevich at the least knew each other in a social setting.

The social networks and intertwined links involved in both the offices of Governor and State Senator make Obama’s calls for Blagojevich’s resignation look incredibly hollow.

UPDATE: I’m so glad that I’m not the only person who finds this funny!

Proof Positive that Lawyers are Amoral Shit, Spat out of Hell

I dare you – I fucking dare you – to read this, and come to any conclusion other than that Shakespeare was right when he said, through his surrogate character, “Dick the Butcher” in Henry VI part 2, “The first thing we do, let’s kill all the lawyers.” No utopia is possible so long as a single lawyer sucks air.

“This is a story about an innocent man who has been in prison for 26 years while two attorneys who knew he was innocent stayed silent. They did so because they felt they had no choice.”

Think about that! These two shysters knew an innocent man was rotting his life away in fucking prison and they stayed silent about it.

“Now new evidence reveals that Logan did not commit that murder. But as correspondent Bob Simon reports, the evidence was not new to those two attorneys, who knew it all along but say they couldn’t speak out until now.”

Couldn’t speak out? NO!!! WOULDN’T speak out: They willed not to speak, they were not prevented from doing so. Sub-human bastards.

“Attorneys Dale Coventry and Jamie Kunz knew Logan had good reason to think that, because they knew he was innocent. And they knew that because their client, Andrew Wilson, who they were defending for killing two policemen, confessed to them that he had also killed the security guard at McDonald’s – the crime Logan was charged with committing.”

Is that clear enough? These two scum-sucking, maggot-out-of-hell shysters knew this man didn’t commit the crime, and they also knew exactly who did. So what did they do? They let the poor guy spend half of his life in prison. How, ex-fucking-zactly is that not pure, unmitigated evil? It is, in thought, word, and deed, evil, which is my point: Lawyers are intrinsically evil slime who ought to be treated as the second-class scum that they, in fact, are. If it was up to me, they would all have a scarlet “L” tattooed on their foreheads so they could be instantly recognized for the losers that they are.

Get ready – brace for it – here it comes: A shyster thoroughly indoctrinated and brainwashed by the relativistic shit-sea that is wrongly-so-called a “law school” explains:

“Well, the vast majority of the public apparently believes that, but if you check with attorneys or ethics committees or you know anybody who knows the rules of conduct for attorneys, it’s very, very clear-it’s not morally clear-but we’re in a position to where we have to maintain client confidentiality, just as a priest would or a doctor would. It’s just a requirement of the law. The system wouldn’t work without it,” Coventry explained.”

Get the kicker there: ” – it’s not morally clear – “?

What. the. fucking. FUCK?!?!?! I guess I’m just a simple musical genius, but that situation is perfectly morally clear to me: You tell the judge, you lose your job, and you go on to do something that doesn’t involve ripping people off and fucking them in the ass! The innocent man goes free, and you end up happier all around in the long run, and you might not end up in hell with every other shyster who ever wasted a lifetime turning perfectly good oxygen into carbon dioxide, perfectly good water into piss, and perfectly good food into shit.

That’s right, these stinking yeast-infected gashes weren’t risking jail or anything, they would have just lost their miserable, dishonorable jobs. So, to save their positions in the least honorable profession mankind has ever developed or even conceived of… they let an innocent man rot in prison. Any crack whore would have made a more honorable choice.

And, we let these evil piles of relativistic excrement make the law and judge the law: How is that not insane? Shysters should be limited to the adversarial part of the process, where their evil is actually necessary. No lawyer is qualified to be a judge or legislator due to their inherant evil, never mind the conflicts of interest.

If you took as a strategy the, “kill them all and let God sort them out” tactic with lawyers, God would have exactly no work to do. Lawyers are the very lowest of all human forms of life. At least pathological criminals have a pathology to explain their behavior; lawyers are just plain evil.

I hope the Lord has long, slow, lingering, miserable deaths in store for these two abject fucks.

Amen.
