THE TRUST FACTOR
One of the reasons newspapers and TV news are suffering is due to
stories they offer that cannot be trusted, and instead are more
representative of a political agenda being advanced.
Specifically, the AP story of protesters demonstrating in front
of AIG executives’ homes, and not one word who these protesters
were. I saw the same protesters on TV news, and they were clearly
identified by their red shirts with a big Acorn symbol, somewhat
reminiscent of the Nazi Brownshirts during the thirties. Not that
I am supportive of AIG’s role in this current debacle, but ACORN
is no angel either. They had a big role in this mess, too, with
their intimidating Stormtrooper tactics threatening bankers at
their homes, that if they didn’t approve the culprit sub-prime
loans, they would then visit violence upon them. That should have
been the real story, not that they were some innocent victims.
Remember, this is the same ACORN that got caught stuffing ballot
boxes in recent elections and now wants to help conduct the 2010
census, the latter which controls congressional districts and
funding for them. It is because of ACORN, the genesis of
this mess, that seniors now are barely getting by with interest
on their meager savings.

IF THEIR LIPS ARE MOVING…
Re: Angelo Codevilla’s Osama Bin Elvis :
Angelo Codevilla’s article on bin Laden was terrific. May I add
my own reason to believe why he is long since dead: Because his
friends say he is alive.

Marc Jarec, great points, all made word for word by NRO contributor Mark Steyn. You should attribute when you lift someone else's words.

Marc, my bad and my appologies. Was thinking of another Steyn piece. Message to self: check facts before posting.

attorneys are very necessary.
When you commit a crime a lawyer is always available to try hard to get you acquitted or reduce your sentence-- even though you are a crook.
The grandeur of the legal system!
that is
