The Unpleasant Profession of Nancy Grace
Popehat ^ | 07/16/13 | Ken White

Posted on 07/18/2013 7:58:41 AM PDT by AtlasStalled

Nancy Grace is the clumsy and ill-considered personification of frightened devotion to the will of the state. She's the mob made one flesh, the embodiment of our fears, our hope that the government will save us, our worry that it might not. The notion that the state can be counted upon to accuse the right person, and that the justice system will punish the guilty and only the guilty, is comforting; the concept that the system is flawed and fallible is terrifying. Due process, like any sort of freedom, is scary and messy. How much more soothing it would be to believe, like Nancy, that the state is right, and that anything or anyone that stands in the state's way may be righteously denounced.

Oh boy I get to post Saturday’s clip of her practically in tears after George Zimmerman was declared not guilty. Eat it with a spoon, Graceless!

I'm sure that's what they meant...

but she's upset enough to throw out racial tropes, which I'm told is supposed to be "conservative..."

Uh, guess again. Told by who? Told by the race-obsessed left.

Otherwise, Grace deserves a good shellacking. Even when she is right, she manages to be right for the wrong reasons and dishonest when dishonesty has no particularly point.

Nancy Grace exists. This is distasteful and regrettable but inevitable, and should be tagged and filed away with other evidence of our brokenness.

Now, that's a good line.

Her outburst at one of the local reporters in the Duke Rape Hoax was classic. He suggested a jury would find reasonable doubt; she suggested he move to Nazi Germany where they don’t bother with juries.

My wife and I have been trying to record Nancy DisGrace since the verdict. Where the hell is she? Is she depressed? Getting electro-shock therapy? Leave of absence due to her alcoholism? A psychotic break from reality?

I mean really....where is she. She has had someone else sub for her since the verdict MON-WED nights.

I want to see her on her OWN SHOW with Frank Taffee gloating over the truth and facts of the case.

It was a classic case of Jumping the Shark the way she behaved during the Zimmerman trial.

I never paid much attention to Nancy Grace, until I watched her show a couple times due to the Zimmerman case. I had no idea she was so stupid. No wonder she had to give up law for TV. She couldn’t muster a rational, logical thought about anything.

Recall that she was so broken up when the Duke boys were declared “factually innocent” (not just “not guilty”) that she couldn’t host her own show that night. It’s almost certainly the same now.

“It was a classic case of Jumping the Shark the way she behaved during the Zimmerman trial.”

She wasn’t alone that’s for sure. What I can’t believe is people like this STILL cannot accept the verdict.

That’s the first time I’ve ever listened to NO_LIMIT_NANCY, although of course I have read a lot about her in these hallowed halls.

Not to insult people who live in trailer homes, but after seeing and hearing her whine ‘n scowl, the FIRST thought that came into my mind was “trailer trash”.

She is/was an alcoholic? I was kinda thinking heavy metal contamination of her water supply.

Yet again, I feel compelled to remind everyone that if you’re still paying for satellite or cable TV you are paying her salary. If you’re not even willing to vote with your dollars, don’t complain about the “product” the MSM puts out. Yes, I know, everyone loves watching the history channel reminding all of us for the trillionth time that the US won WWII or the fake reality shows about pawn shops and storage units, but a time comes when you have to stop feeding the beast.

I seem to recall her being raked over the coals by Jon Stewart after the Duke case.

Like a moth to a flame, like a passerby unwillingly, but tragically drawn to look at a gruesome auto accident...I clicked on this thread because I KNEW someone would post that nasty, vulgar picture of Nancy Grace (without makeup).

Thankfully, I was disappointed.

You’re always an alcoholic. Frankly she gives alcoholics a bad name.
