Aruba Triple Murder: Son Eugene Lampe Confesses to Triple Murder … Compare & Contrast to Natalee Holloway Death & Disappearance

What a difference a crime makes and who committed the crime. It would appear that Eugene Lampe initially made false comments to the police that made them skeptical of his initial statement. Did Eugene say that he dropped his 3 murdered family members off at the Holiday Inn as Joran Van der Sloot had once done? Did Eugene Lampe say he left his murdered family on the beach?

Two crimes … two drastically different outcomes. Yes, the crimes are different in nature; however, why would the ALE not have initially believed the story in once case but in another allowed the fraud to continue?

In the end it is nice to have friends in high places that can exert power and influence.

Iraq Study Group Releases Report – A Genuine Recipe For Disaster

The Iraq Study Group has put out the report that was promised, and it contains all that could be expected by politicians and diplomats. Lots of weasle wonkish words all balled up into an unmitigated miasma of mush. Instead of providing a concrete plan of action for the country that could be either accepted or dismissed, the report worked to find the middle ground.

Isg_report_coverAnd we all know that the middle ground is the only tried and true recipe for failure. Sit in any corporate meeting and once the group tries to find consensus that will please all constituancies the words cluster tend to come out of the mouths of those attending said meeting as soon as the doors open. 

And if you do not believe me, look past the jump page and see all the other bloggers talk about this from either side of the aisle. I am not alone in this assessment of Baker and Companies report. And if you are really eager to read this rubbish, we have a link here.

Update: We are Scared Monkeys ,,, much better than Surrender Monkeys. PS NY POST – If you need Photoshop help, call me. I know Klaasend could have done a much better job.
