Charles Schumer and Democrats Believe Their Own Press Clippings

Instead of recognizing the fact that conservatives abandoned the Republican Party this past midterm election, Democrats are thinking that they have vanquished core conservative principals and dominate the political landscape. Charles Schumer, Senator from New York and media whore, stopped by the Daily News office to proclaim Reaganomics dead. As Mr. T would say, “I pity the fool”.

“We’re in better shape than [Republicans] are, because they don’t realize that Reaganomics is dead, that the Reagan philosophy is dead,” he said. “We realize that New Deal democracy, which is still our paradigm, which is sort of appeal to each group … that doesn’t work any more.”
He had said a bit earlier, “The old Reagan theory which dominated — which is, ‘Government is bad, it’s out of touch, chop off its hands as soon as it moves.’ — is over.” via The Daily News

So let these Democrats continue to weave a path towards large government and classic liberal “we know whats best for you thought”. Let the Charles Schumer’s tell us that big government is best for the country. These same liberals did not run on this platform in 2006, maybe they will have the cajones to run on big government in 2008.

My bet is on Reaganomics carrying the day.

Venezuela President Hugo Chavez … Call him Mr. Democracy … Hugo the Concerned

Who knew Hugo Chavez was concerned about the fair and democratic process of voting? Chavez has adopted safeguards to prevent tampering with the electronic voting machines in Sunday’s Presidential Election in Venezuela.

Unlike with most U.S. electronic voting machines, Venezuelans will get paper receipts that verify their choices were properly recorded, and must deposit them into boxes before leaving the polls. After Sunday’s vote, election officials monitored by representatives of each candidate will count millions of the paper receipts for comparison to the electronic totals.

Of course there is no mention of the threats, intimidation or they gun to their heads by Chavez when the people cast their E–Vote. But of course the MSM looks at Chavez as a Democratically elected President, not a Dictator. Wonder why Jimmy Carter is not monitoring the vote?

Larry Garrison to the rescue as Spokesman for Jacque Hollander in the James Brown Rape Appeal Suit: Pipe Dream or Brown’s Worst Nightmare

According to reports, Larry Garrison of SilverCreek Entertainment is the spokesperson for Jacque Hollander in her rape law suit against James Brown. Hollander claims that in 1988 James Brown raped her at gun point. She is presently appealing the ruling of a lower court that stated the statute of limitations expired.

The opposing council, Debra Opri, has called Jacque Hollander’s attempt for her day in court, “a pipe dream.” One would ask Ms Opri if the many clients she has defended, if their cases were pipe dreams as well? One would also beg the question that appeals and legal precedents that are made at the Supreme Court level were all pipe dreams by an individual at one point. That’s why they are brought in front of the Supreme Court, to over turn what is perceived to be bad existing law. One may also want to ask Debra Opri took look at the big picture rather than just the defense of her one client, James Brown, who is being accused of rape by Jacque Hollander. Would attorney Opri feel differently regarding the matter if say the victim was some one she knew or a loved one, rather than the defendant being her paying client? Jacque Hollander forges forward in her appeal in the rape suit.

The Petition for Writ of Certiorari to the US Court of Appeals for the 7th Circuit by attorney Donald Rosen is actually an extremely well written and thought out argument. Far from a “pipe dream”.  It may just become a dream come true for Jacque Hollander. Woman’s rights groups should applaud Rosen’s petition and get behind it in droves.

The Appeal is based on the fact that a two year statue of limitations time limit is unfair toward victims, particularly woman who need equal protection under the law. Attorney Donald Rosen also references the Violence Against Woman Act as well.

Whether the State of Illinois’ two-year statute of limitations that includes sexual assault as a personal injury subject to the same limitations as other personal injuries, fails to provide due process of law, and fails to provide equal protection to women, and so violates the Fourteenth Amendment and 42 USCS § 13981.

Read the full petition below, there are some tremendous points made. This is truly an interesting case and an Appeal that could very easily win. One thing is for certain, one should never call an individual’s attempt to get justice in the courts a “pipe dream”. Especially an officer of the court and a lawyer.

Defense attorney Debra Opri’s “pipe dream” may just become a bad dream and James Brown’s worst nightmare if this appeal is heard and won by Jacque Hollander.

OJ Simpson … The Thing that Will Not Leave … The media, the thing that will not let it

Who is more pathetic, OJ Simpson, his lawyer or the Networks? OJ’s book, interview and TV deal crashed and burned due to public outcry and common decency. Now OJ’s lawyer tells us that news execs are begging to talk with the man some of them denounced last week. You all deserve one another.   

What’s the matter, OJ and his attorney need spending money for the holidays? If its even true whether they are getting offers. What is still true is that Simpson attorney is crazy if he thinks he is pious.

Despite those come-ons, Galanter says, “Right now, we don’t plan to do any interview. We think it’s a dead story. I think the whole thing is in poor taste.” (Daily News)

No, what’s in poor taste is your wording calling it a “dead story” and the fact that you people just won’t go away but instead continue your attempt in the lime-light to spite the family of Ron Goldman and Nicole Brown. If an interview is in such poor taste, why did OJ agree to do one in the first place with NewsCorp. Do us all a favor and go, far …  far away.
