Is there anyhing more disgraceful or humiliating--wonder if he palrays it into makeing 20 mill next year on the lecture circuit :)

Wonder why he and others didn't take Sandy Bergers route relinguish his license 1st to alliviate being disbarred :shrug:

and wll justice prevail again--
Pants Suit

The judge who is suing the owners of a Washington dry cleaners for $54 million because they allegedly lost his pants ? may lose something else ? his job.

The Washington Examiner reports D.C.'s chief administrative judge has written to the three-person commission that will decide whether Roy Pearson is reappointed ? and said Pearson does not deserve another 10-year term. That reverses his earlier recommendation in favor of Pearson.

A D.C. government source tells the paper: "My sense is that the commission will not reappoint him."

Pearson's job as an administrative law judge pays more than $100,000 a year... but does not pay for his pants.

++++++++++++++++++++
I'll believe it when I see as ole Mayor Marion just got aquitted on drunken driving charge there-

Yeah, interesting "wondering" analogy between Nifong, Berger and Clinton, Wayne. Thanks for connecting the dots for us in yet another thread...

Dogs i have to give Fox News credit here. They led the charge on getting this guy to lose his career. They finally got one right as well as the other fifty thousand news organizations. If Fox didn't beat this story to death (basically to divide whites and blacks) you would have never ever posted this stupid ridiculous story. Dj is right. I find it hilarious that what this creep pulled is just the same old crap the people you support do on a daily basis. Lying, obstruction of justice etc.. He may be a good canidate to get a Fox News anchor position along with the other lowlifes like Marc Furman, Ollie North, and i know there is another Liar who got caught with his pants down but i can't think of him at the moment. I predict Libby and Gonzales will most likely end up on Fox to.

Yeah, framing innocent kids and hiding the proof of their innocence is pretty bad in my book.

What does Bush have to do with this? He is evil and a nutcase, but has nothing to do with this topic.

Gm sometimes you have to read between the lines of a DTB post. I think that is where DJ was going. Then again i might be wrong.

Imagine that...FauxNews taking up the case for some rich white kids. Who 'da thunk it?!?

That being said, glad to see the justice that was apparently done here. Seems he was definitely looking for fame and fortune in this case.

Makes you wonder. Now Libby basically has done the same thing but they are on his side. They wanted Martha Steward hung for doing the same thing Libby did:shrug: . Where was the pardon call for Stewart?:shrug: I'm not sure what is more sad this news station or the people who get sucked in by this news station? then you have people trying to tell you not to watch the station. The same people who continually get conned by it.

:142smilie Well said.

DTB and Weasel always pull that slippery maneuver. Some slimy jackoff like this DA gets exposed and this pair of lunatics attempt to throw everyone they don't like into the same boiling pot, no matter how much of a stretch. I guess they are seeing if poltically opposite posters will then get trapped into defending the slimy DA. ...Or perhaps they trap the poster into buying into all their arguments simply by agreeing that the DA is a slimeball.

Very primitive traps and I think we all know what they are up to.:SIB

Actually, I have to reprimand myself a little here for profiling. I don't have any idea about the background of these lacrosse players. I am assuming they came from wealthy white backgrounds, and I don't really know for should. Heck, they could have come from a parent like Weasel, for all I know. I can say that one of the dudes looks a lot like a young Sean Hannity, so maybe that's why I profiled?

FOX was definitely correctly out front early on this travesty and called it as such.

They were also on site in New Orleans before anybody else after Katrina.

You guys can say what you want, but Shep Smith was on the brink of tears, at times slightly past the brink, standing there looking down off of a roof at what was going on and imploring the feds, somebody, to do something.

That goofball Geraldo was in the mix, kinda helping somebody out of a hospital.

NBC had a reporter in 2 feet of water, in a f*cking boat, acting like she was in 10 feet of water and acting all brave.

Sean Penn rode around with a cameraman in a boat acting like he was trying to save people. Nope, but he got a lot of material for his book.

FOX leans right daily, or more accurately, nightly, of course. But they aren't the boogyman or the terribly biased entity that the indoctrinated think that CBS/ABC/NBC/NPR (anybody but FOX) are.

I thought Anderson Cooper did a hell of a job with Katrina. And still goes back down at last every quarter to follow progress. You don't see any one else there that much. Hell Fox seems to not even cover Iraq very well any more. It's Like there hiding from it. Jesus their so hung up on Hillary that's all you get from them all day. Got news for them she wont be nominated.

Your Fox spin on what he did and what i heard coming right out of the horses mouth is typical of once again a guy being fooled by the Fox spin. Go figure.

What horses mouth? Penn himself?

Can I ask you exactly what purpose he served rowing down the street with his photographer, a notebook and a tape recorder?

And FOX was far from the only station reporting on that nonsense.

Cmon Kosar you make it sound like it was sunny and he could just set up a camera and smile while trying to save people. To hear his side of the story sounded a lot different than the side of the Hollywood hating crowd. He even said that Cuba who is noted for having the best rescue teams in the world for this kind of stuff wanted to help and the Bush's said no thanks because of this stupid shit we have with Cuba. Imagine that. Our politicians one time couldn't look the other way to save our own people so they laid stranded because we are bread to think the Cubans are mean people. They had teams ready to go and we said no. Penn did more to help than any of those blowhards on Fox or Cnn and you could see the pain in his face talking about this. But no the Fox boys give you there bullshit take on this. Now if it was Arnold when they use to like him it would have been the most heroic event in history. If it was that fraud Thompson they might have said he just walked on top of the water and rescued people. I don't have a problem with a different point of view but don't lie straight to my face. For some reason they are very good at it.

I'm not particularly comfortable in the perceived role of defending FOX, but your obsession with them is no different than Wease/NYT or Wayne/Clinton.

Heck, even in this thread, in Wease/Wayne fashion, you ignore the question and start talking about Cuban rescue teams.

As far as him 'doing more' than the reporters on the ground? Please explain exactly what he did to 'help.'

What I do know is that reporters from all sorts of stations were on the air, on location, begging, screaming for help for those people, 24 hours a day.

I thought you knew what he did? You laid it out in your first post.:shrug: Maybe i can find a transcript of the Bill Maher show he was on. Penn was the guy who brought up the Cuban stuff. I never heard it before.

In September 2005, Penn traveled to New Orleans, Louisiana to aid Hurricane Katrina victims. He was physically involved in rescuing[3] many people. One man was 73-year-old John Brown, who had told his sister over the phone: "Guess who come and got me out of the house? Sean Penn, the actor. The boys were really nice."[citation needed] The actor then gave some rescuees an unspecified amount of money to tide them over, and then took those who were in need of medical attention to the hospital. He was and is supported by best-selling author Douglas Brinkley, a professor of history at Tulane University and archival historian for the city. The two were seen on CNN coverage Friday, September 2, as Penn, filthy, soaked, and exhausted, gave an impromptu interview about what he was seeing and doing, and obviously critical of the response until that time, stating that at that time he felt there was only "about one-fifth" the assistance and resources there that needed to be.
