He has long since overstayed his welcome. The sooner he's out of the public eye and into some sort of Punishment Zone - Hell, Jail, Limbo, whatever - the better off we all are.

After his original trial I thought to myself, you know maybe he actually is innocent. I even argued with people about it.

You can always make any statement seem wise and condescending, merely by appending the word "Grasshopper" to the end:

"You can’t step twice into the same river, Grasshopper."

"Would you like fries with that, Grasshopper?"

"Twenty bucks for a quickle, forty bucks for around-the-world, Grasshopper."

"You can't go into a Dunkin' Donuts or a 7-11 without hearing an Indian accent, Grasshopper."

I predicted this would happen to OJ back in about '95. I said then he would do something that would get him locked up; only it took longer than I thought. Partly a desire for punishment, I think.

20 Intrepid  Fri, Oct 3, 2008 11:08:17pm

Oh yeah, OJ is guilty! He implemented his "sting" to get back his "shit", and it backfired on him in a most spectacular way.

And he will receive no mercy from the judge in this case - she is a hard-liner as far as sentencing is concerned.

Lesson to be learned: One cannot assemble a group of gun-toting goons to accompany one to retrieve what one "feels" is one's "shit", and then claim innocence when one is hauled before a court of law.

Oh Happy Day!

60 Intrepid  Fri, Oct 3, 2008 11:21:17pm

GGT - here's the skinny:

Back in 1995 when the civil courts in CA awarded a 33 million dollar judgement to the families of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman, it was made clear that all possessions of OJ were to be forfeit to them. OJ quickly divvied out his sports memerabelia (sp?) collection to friends and also to his agent at the time, Mike Gilbert, for services rendered.

Mike Gilbert eventually sold the articles OJ gave him (in payment for services rendered), to others. The ones who had them at the time of the "incident" were Al Beardsley and Bruce Fremong.

A year ago, in mid September, OJ went to Vegas to attend the wedding of a friend of his. While he was there, a smarmy small time dealer connected OJ with the Beardsley/Fremong group, with the understanding to the latter group that OJ wanted to buy back "his stuff".

Instead, OJ gathered a group of thugs about him, showed up at the pre-arranged hotel room, and proceeded to take the stuff they had in the room. The articles were originally OJ Simpson's things, but he had given them to Mike Gilbert as payment for services rendered as OJ's agent.

When two thugs brought out guns, it became a whole different game. That's what brought the big charges of armed robbery and kidnapping.

He can appeal, but I'll guarantee you he won't get anywhere. The judge in this case - Judge Jackie Glass - is a stellar jurist who has an excellent record. She knows her stuff, and she kept OJ's lawyers in check during the trial.

Her rulings are usually sound, and OJ won't really have any avenues of appeal from her court.

I won a lot of money 13 years ago betting with others that OJ would not be convicted. I was a cynical bastard even then. The day of the slow speed chase a bunch of us wagered and put up the dough. I was the only one betting on an acquittal. Then there was that enormous interval of time. I forgot about the wager. Finally the verdict was read and my buddy called me up, "aren't you going to come get your money?".

re: #96 KATALEENA

Hi lizards...my very first time posting...I'm a bit intimidated by all the smart people here! I am so impressed with LGF and I have on many occasions found comfort here!

Been freaking out lately with the slip in the polls for McCain so have decided to do something about it and have volunteered at the local McCain HQ...and it felt great. Many, many first time volunteers there.
Last Saturday the line was consistently out the door; people coming to make calls, get yard signs, bumper stickers, etc.

Getting ready to see Palin tomorrow in Carson, Ca...! I AM SO EXCITED!

Good on ya! Volunteer, volunteer, volunteer. See, all you doomsayers: Kataleena's in the supposedly "lost" state of California and she's not giving up on it. And neither am I. Go!

Welcome, Kataleena! Keep volunteering there and keep making a difference!

Don't watch the polls - they're skewed because of an over sampling of democrats.

But fight like we're 5 points behind! Every little bit helps!

He responds " You don't give that kind of information like that, you say : The cat was on the roof, we called the fire department, and they responded we all tried and the cat died" That's how you relate information like that!
and then he asked : "How's Mom"?

I read some very interesting links here earlier tonight; there is compelling case to be made that the ghost writer of "Dreams of My Father" (or whatever Obama's "memoir" is called) was none other than Bill Ayers. Someone who does such things for a living compared the book to writings of Ayers', and the similarities are pretty stunning, actually.

Interesting, because the NYT had a piece out suggesting that Obama barely knows Ayers at all - just met him a couple of times, basically. I don't think anyone buys that, but it sure looks like they want to get ahead of this one.

As a child, it is hard to think of your father as a criminal, especially when he is there to tell you otherwise while he is doing the things a father is supposed to do. They're in for some disappointment when they grow up, if they believe it even then.

Interesting, because the NYT had a piece out suggesting that Obama barely knows Ayers at all - just met him a couple of times, basically. I don't think anyone buys that, but it sure looks like they want to get ahead of this one.


Look HERE for this interesting tidbit:

This would be a great question for Obama some time- "Did the Ayers ever babysit your children?" I saw this interesting comment at a thread over at Just One Minute: “I live in Obama’s neighborhood and know some of the Obama / Ayers crowd. Ayers and Dohrn have babysat the Obama kids personally. The families are personal friends, not just professional acquaintances.

"It's amazing: she's been thrust into the national spotlight with very little preparation and I think that, all things considered, you saw a very composed and effective debater last night."

Praise for Palin's debate performance aside, Clinton reiterated her support for her former Democratic rivals during the morning radio interview and said "the real issue is who is better for America."

‘Politico’ Reporters Invade Arkansas; Blogger Unharmed

The money shot...

During the Q&A session, one woman prefaced her question with the announcement that “I get all my news from ‘The Daily Show,’” like that’s something to be all proud of.

Look, if you’re getting all your news from “The Daily Show,” or “The Colbert Report,” or “Rush Limbaugh,” or The Arkansas Times, or The Arkansas Project, and you go around telling people this like it’s a bragging point, you are an idiot. You probably should not be allowed to vote. You probably shouldn’t even be allowed to drive a car. In fact, you should probably have your mittens pinned to your jacket and have to wear a safety helmet everywhere you go.

An enslaved people heading toward freedom
Made up a song:
Keep Your Hand On The Plow! Hold On!

Across the field of history.

From that seed a tree grew, is growing, will ever grow.
That tree is for everybody,
For all America, for all the world.
May its branches spread and shelter grow
Until all races and all peoples know its shade.

McCain is a crusty old dog and those stripes aren't going to change. All that talk of OODA ....is that now forgotten? The way that he has been acting recently makes no sense at all unless it is seen thru that OODA scenario, and it's obvious as hell to me.

He is playing possum, biding his time until it's time to play his hand. This is a man who spent five years as a prisoner of war. Does anyone really think that he has suddenly lost his fire? His passion for the kill? That makes no sense. He is playing this masterfully, lulling Obama and ilk into thinking they are going to coast right on to victory and steal this country ...HIS country, right out from under his nose. Is there anything that we know about McCain that would support his allowing this to happen like a doddering old fool? NO.

There are two debates to go that I suspect will surprise many. I believe the fumbling McCain we are currently seeing and so disappointed in will come roaring back to life as McCain the Fighter, the Warrior. I believe in him.

Our political parties are corpses and democracy as we used to know it is quite dead

The cold, miserable truth is that both our major political parties are corpses, their original purposes long forgotten, their loyal members driven away or sidelined, their traditional voters taken for granted. Every so often, by a mysterious process, one of them is declared electable and the other is declared unelectable. And we, the voters, do as we are told. By whom? For what purpose?

I know this- McCain wants this job. He's wanted it for quite some time, and this is his last and best shot at it. I don't think he'll go down without a fight, that's for sure.

287 razorbacker  Sat, Oct 4, 2008 1:34:59am

The conclusion of the above link. 'Cause some of youse don't click through.

The rule nowadays is that you cannot become the government unless you bow to the views of the ‘Centre-Left’ media elite, especially the broadcast media elite. That elite speaks for the 1968 generation which fanned out in the Seventies into the civil service, education, entertainment, the law, the arts, rock music and – above all – the media.

We no longer have elections where two evenly matched parties go into a fair contest with competing ideas and it is over only when the last vote is counted. Instead, we have wild swings in which the approved party goes into the Election with a giant poll lead and then wins the Election with a mad, crushingly enormous majority over the unapproved party.

And the winner is always the ‘Centre-Left’, which claims to be moderate but is in fact a swirling cauldron of wild Sixties Leftism – anti-British, anti-family, anti-Christian, anti-education and pro-crime.

But if you dare to oppose this stuff, they’ll call you an extremist.

You'd think the dude was writing about Ahmurrica.

I sure hope you are right. But, just today he said how much he repected Al Gore and would call upon him to help in the war against climate change.

Yes. But this is a small thing when put into perspective. He loses nothing at this point by saying this (votes, from his base .....the alternative is Obama, remember) and at the same time he courts the climate change nuts. I don't like his stand on "climate change" either, but it's inconsequential at this stage. We all know what the alternative is.

Question for the stock market lizards.

If McCain gets elected do the markets go up because of his 'world global market views' and less taxes?

Or do they go down because of Obamas protectionism, Universal health care, and more taxes on business?

Will the government controlled Universal health care be good for markets or disaster?

tom, remember how his video ads would pop out almost immediately in the last few weeks? His responses were lightening fast. He's shown us what he is made us, and what kind of team he has. They're still with him. He still has the heart of a warrior --- and a maverick. This is all for show and we are worrying a lot about something we should be confident about. He is playing to Obama's weakness .....his arrogance and sense of invincibility. The more puffed up Obama is the harder and farther his fall will be. That kind of thing is sweet music to someone like McCain.

One more thing on the OJ verdict.

I remember a scene out of one my favorite movies "Lawrence of Arabia" , one of Lawrence boys was lost in the desert and everyone told him to forget it, this boy was gone and it was "said" Anthony Quinn told him so. Lawrence went into the desert and rescued this boy. He told Anthony Quinn that nothing was "said". Later a killing took place that would break apart the alliance that Lawrence had put together. His boy had killed another and Lawerence would have to kill this boy to save the alliance. And he did so. After he shot the boy Anthony Quinn commented to another chieftain, "see I told you it was said".

re: #296 ibmkeyboard

Question for the stock market lizards.

If McCain gets elected do the markets go up because of his 'world global market views' and less taxes?

Or do they go down because of Obamas protectionism, Universal health care, and more taxes on business?

Will the government controlled Universal health care be good for markets or disaster?

/where to put what little money I have left?

The markets are going to be crappy now for quite a while. We did so much damage to the economy with all the screwing around in Congress that I think the down turn got extended 6 to 9 months.
all the fundamentals I see are pointed down.

What you can do with your money is divide it into 2 sections, the money you will need in less than 5 years, and the money you can lockup for 5 years or more.

The less than 5 year money put in insured CD's and treasuries. The over 5 year money you can put in the market for the long haul. Ultimately McCains policies would be better for the market than Obama's

But we are looking at a significant recession now. We are 13 months into a slowdown period and normally would be looking for an upturn right now. But with all the extra damage to the economy, it is going to be real slow going for a while. It will take another few weeks before the Treasury can start purchasing these toxic securities and the banks can start getting some breathing room on their books. Even then, after going through all this, I doubt that you will see a whole lot of lending activity from the banks for quite a while.

But that also means there are some bargains out there to be snapped up.

"Twenty-six years later, at a lunchtime meeting about school reform in a Chicago skyscraper, Barack Obama met Mr. Ayers, by then an education professor. Their paths have crossed sporadically since then, at a coffee Mr. Ayers hosted for Mr. Obama’s first run for office, on the schools project and a charitable board, and in casual encounters as Hyde Park neighbors"
