Casey Anthony’ trial is one hot ticket

“Orlando, Florida (CNN) -- Casey Anthony, also known as the "tot mom," is no Lady Gaga, but her murder trial here is the hottest ticket in town.

People spend the night waiting in line for one of 50 courtroom seats reserved for the public. Tempers flare and police are called. And then, once they're given a ticket, they stampede like cattle.

Only in Florida, where criminal justice can be a spectator sport, are Disney World passes the back-up option…”

 

  I have seen the video of the people fighting and pushing and yelling and running to get into the line to get into the trial.  Not only do I not understand it … It makes me sick.
  I think that the state of FL should just have buses there and when people get into the line tell them you are taking them to front row seats and take them out and load them on the buses and take them to mental hospitals and lock them up.
  Now there could be a few people that have the right and need to get into the trial.  There might be family or friends.  They might be news media people or even some bloggers that have a need to get into the trial.  There might be an book author that is going to write a book.
  But most of all those people, I think, are sick and stupid and …..  
  Thank God I am not working security at that court house.  The first time one of the people in line did anything I would drag them out of the line and kick their ass down the steps of the court house.. and I am sure.. I would find myself in the court room being charged with a crime for doing it.  But those people, I think, are the scum of the earth.

Am I wrong?  Am I missing something?  
Would you push and shove and run to get into a line like this for a trail in your home town?
Do you not have a TV set?

By the way I am not watching any of the trial on TV.  Why would I want to watch it?

How gay is blogger Andrew Breitbart?

  Remember Andrew Breitbart saying that he had a photo of the naked genitals of Rep. Anthony Weiner?  Remember Breitbart saying he was NOT going to release the photo?
  Guess what Andrew Breitbart has been walking around with the nude photo on his cell phone.  He went on a Sirius radio talk show and he passed his cell phone around the room to everyone so they could see the photo.

  And now the photo is out on the Intenet.  I found links to it all over the place.

  Here is the photo

de orbit burn now for shuttle Endeavour

  They are doing the de orbit burn for the shuttle Endeavour right now.  There will be only one more launch and landing of a shuttle.

I been listening to space craft from the start of the space age.  I even did a space communications column each month for a long time.  Tonight I am following the landing by watching streaming video from NASA TV.

Son of Osama bin Laden calls killing criminal!

“A statement purporting to come from a son of Osama bin Laden denounced the al Qaeda leader's killing as "criminal" and said his burial at sea had humiliated the family, an online monitoring service said.

The statement, attributed to Omar bin Laden, bin Laden's fourth eldest son, said the al Qaeda chief's children reserved the right to take legal action in the United States and internationally to "determine the true fate of our vanished father," the SITE Intelligence Group said.

There was no independent confirmation of the authenticity of the letter, published on the website of Islamist ideologue Abu Walid al-Masri, although several specialists on militant propaganda said the text appeared genuine.

Omar bin Laden, who has been based in the Gulf in recent years, did not immediately respond to emailed and telephoned requests for comment…”  Huffington Post

 

  I do not know what this son has done in the past but I wonder how much support bid Laden was getting from his sons and his family.
  It seems like I heard time and time again that there was a son with Osama bin Laden.  It may not have been this son but I think we might have some questions about the sons of bin Laden and about his family.

 

"We hold the American President (Barack) Obama legally responsible to clarify the fate of our father, Osama bin Laden, for it is unacceptable, humanely and religiously, to dispose of a person with such importance and status among his people, by throwing his body into the sea in that way, which demeans and humiliates his family and his supporters and which challenges religious provisions and feelings of hundreds of millions of Muslims."

 

  What?  “such importance and status” … What the fuck?  It “demeans and humiliates his family and supporters” … Who the fuck cares about his supporters and I wonder about his family.
  How would Osama bin Laden’s supporters have treated an American if they had gone him?  They would have cut off his head and set him on fire and dragged him down the streets of town.

  Our treatment of his dead body was more than justice and decent.  
  I think we should freeze any of the funds of the bid Laden family until we can sort out if they had any part in the deeds of Osama bin Laden.

To much talk and to much detail

  There is to much talk and to many details coming out about the bid Laden raid.  People in government need to stop talking about it.  The news media needs to stop reporting on it. 
  The release of this information does not make us safer. 
  We are just making it harder to protect the nation and we are helping al Qaeda and others.
  If I was al Qaeda I would be using this information to target and attack the United States.  I would set up a trap for one thing.  Set up a place and leak information about it and then wait for an attack.
  There is just to much talk about all of this and it needs to stop.
  “National Security” should be used in this case..  Sorry we can not discuss this because of national security. 

Osama bin Laden was living outside of Islamabad

  Politics in the United States seem like they are bad but I am sure politics in Pakistan must be hell.  I suspect that some leaders of Pakistan are doing all they can to help us fight terror and others are just trying to make sure they end up not being the victims of terror.
  But the fact that Osama bin Laden was living 35 miles outside of Islamabad makes me worry about just how much we can count on Pakistan right now and next month and next year.

  The compound that Osama bin Laden was living in was built in 2005.  It was eight times larger than the other homes in the suburb of Islamabad.  The house was valued at about 1 million dollars and had no phone or Internet connections!   Details from the Daily Kos.

  I sure would be interested in who built the compound and how is listed as the owner and other information about it.  I am sure we are working on getting all of that information.

  I hope we got DNA from the people in the compound.  Three men were killed and we think one of them was one of Osama’s sons.  One woman was killed and two injured.  I hope we did a quick jab with a needle and got DNA.  Just so we have the information and I do not mean they have to release it to the public.
    
  The news media are going to want all the details and I mean everything.  I think it would be best if very little information was given.  But I am sure we will end up with all the details and that will just make it more easy for the next Osama bin Laden to hide from us.
 
  Well never fucking mind… I see that there is a story on the MSNBC site telling how we found bin Laden:    “How the US tracked couriers to elaborate bin Laden compound.” 
 
  Yes we have freedom of press in the United States but we always release to much information and it comes back to hurt us.

Osama bin Laden killed in Pakistan

“(CNN) -- The most prominent face of terror in America and beyond, Osama Bin Laden, has been killed in Pakistan, U.S. officials said Sunday night.

Bin Laden was the leader of al Qaeda, the terrorist network behind the September 11, 2001, attacks on the United States. U.S. officials said that their forces have the body of bin Laden…”

 

  What a surprise and shock.  I went to bed one hour and 30 minutes ago but woke up and had to go to the bathroom and turn up the heat.  I decided to check the CNN website and I saw the head line “Osama Bin Laden is Dead.”   
  I was even in time to hear most of the address to the nation by President Obama.
  It is great that we used people to go in and do the attack and not do it by a rocket.  It is also great that we got his body.

Birther Nuts Say Obama’s Birth Certificate is a Fake!

  I think most real Republicans and normal people just accept the long form Obama birth certificate and want this entire matter over.  
  Republicans want this matter over and want to put as much distance as they can between them and the crazy birther people.
  I do not have cable so I do not know how Fox News is reporting the matter.  But they are not a real news media service.

But I am seeing comments left all over the Internet by the birther people.  They do not accept the long form birth certificate.  They find problems with it. 
Plus they say they do not accept it because he waited so long to release it.  They say if it was real he would have put it out three years ago.

  I will be interested to see the polls when they come out.  Remember 4 out of 10 Republicans did not believe that President Obama was born in the United States.  What will the new numbers show after his release of the long form certificate.
  I said right after his release that I was thinking the new numbers would be 1 or 2 out of 10 but now I am not sure. 

  If the number is still 4 out of 10 then I think what we have is the % of Republicans that are racist. 

Trump Avoided Vietnam

   The Smoking Gun got documents that show that Donald Trump avoided servicing in the military and having to go to Vietnam.  Remember he was the son of a VERY rich man.
   That information could be why he never runs for political office.  He has lied about why he did not go into the military.  He has said that he had a very high number but the truth is that he got four student deferments and one medical deferment.

  

  The reason, I think, it is so bad is that he has been saying on TV recently that if he was President of the United States he would use the military power of the United States to kick ass. He has said he would take the oil from other nations and do all sort of crazy and wild things and now we find that he did everything he could to not go into the military and serve his nation in uniform.
  Also his father was a multimillionaire and it seems that when Republicans have money their sons have not served in the military. 

  By the way… Donald Trump and I have something in common!  No not a rich father.
I also got a “1-Y” medical deferment.  We also have something else in common.  We both went to a military high school.
  But after high school I went down to join the military and they refused to take me because I was so under weight.  Donald Trump went to college after high school.
  Both of us a few years after high school got called down for our Selective Service Physical Exam.  I passed and was issued a 1-A card and I went right to the Army and attempted to join.  They said they had a list of everyone that was 1-A and I was on the list and they would have been contacting me to join if I had not come down.  So I started filling out paper work to join and picking what I wanted to do in the military and then they checked with the Selective Service again and found that they had failed to look at my height and weight and that I was under weight and the Selective Service told them that they would send me a new card and that I was “1-Y”.  So the Army showed me the door.  Later the SS would change all people that were “1-Y” to “4-F”.
  Donald Trump also got called for his physical examination and failed for some reason and he got a “1-Y" card that was later changed to “4-F”.

  I will be glad when we do not have to hear about Donald Trump.  I am sure most real Republicans feel the same way.  Most of the right wing blogs I have seen call Donald Trump a Democrat.  So you know they fucking hate him.
  Truth is I am not sure Trump has a party other than the Donald Trump Party.  He is just a self promoter.  He is like the balloon boy dad except smarter and he has lots of money.
