R.U.D.....Removal Upon Death.

I see Florence UberMax (no human conatct sans hacks) in his immediate future....then if he behaves for 5-10 years they might tune him down to Marion where he can be embraced(and protected) by his Nation of Islam bros.

I happened to hear Les Kinsolving give a dramatic reading of this last night during my 10 minute commute. It should have made every newscast on the night of the sentencing.

We have wall-to-wall TV on some cases (involving attractive victims) and nothing on others.

PS: The same radio station - WCBM- discussed the Garafolo Awards this morning, mentioning FreeRepublic.com!

The biggest power the media have is to select which stories to cover. That's why talk radio, the internet and FOX have changed everything, by breaking up the ABCNNBCBS-NYT-WP-LAT liberal monopoly.

Indebted thanks, honorable pingmeister. You know good
comments when you see them. I have been out of
touch for over a week due to a nephew, and Uncle
passing to the other side within five days of each
other. Thanks again.

That was a great Post. I can't believe that this came out of the First Federal District in Boston. My kid was called as a juror for the trial but made the cutoff.

If you don't think this is a war against a religion then read his words - MILLIONS believe like he does. IF YOU DO NOT take seriously this god allah and the Koran and its teachings - MILLIONS of Muslims who support Reid DO TAKE IT SERIOUSLY and they sincerely believe the Koran teaches them to kill us:

REID: I further admit my allegiance to Osama bin Laden, to Islam, and to the religion of Allah. With regards to what you said about killing innocent people, I will say one thing. Your government has killed 2 million children in Iraq. If you want to think about something, against 2 million, I don't see no comparison.

Your government has sponsored the rape and torture of Muslims in the prisons of Egypt and Turkey and Syria and Jordan with their money and with their weapons. I don't know, see what I done as being equal to rape and to torture, or to the deaths of the two million children in Iraq.

So, for this reason, I think I ought not apologize for my actions. I am at war with your country. I'm at war with them not for personal reasons but because they have murdered more than, so many children and they have oppressed my religion and they have oppressed people for no reason except that they say we believe in Allah.

This is the only reason that America sponsors Egypt. It's the only reason they sponsor Turkey. It's the only reason they back Israel.

As far as the sentence is concerned, it's in your hand. Only really it is not even in your hand. It's in Allah's hand. I put my trust in Allah totally and I know that he will give victory to his religion. And he will give victory to those who believe and he will destroy those who wish to oppress the people because they believe in Allah.

So you can judge and I leave you to judge. And I don't mind. This is all I have to say. And I bear witness to Muhammad this is Allah's message.

It is unbelievable that Reid & friends blame America for how their own fellow Islamists in Arab/ME countries treat those who are incarcerated. What gall...

[sandlady]

Unbelievably, I only just read this citation tonight. I must bump for others like me....

[AD from SpringBay]

That flag will fly there long after this is all forgotten. That flag stands for freedom. You know it always will.

Bump!

Oh-I'm so glad I wasn't the only one.... ;^)
