28301-016

“Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number [is] Six hundred threescore [and] six.” Rev 13: 18

* “Scooter Libby, AKA Federal Inmate No. 28301-016, walks free” …

And so does scoot our civil liberties out the door, out the window and the belief in a society where “no man (or woman) is above the law”…

The country guffawed when a black man named OJ Simpson – no matter which side of the debate you fall – found his color no liability since his ability to pay 10 million to my Kappa Alpha Psi fraternity brother, Johnny Cochran to set him free…

And Paris Hilton had no drinking problem – despite driving on a suspended license due to DUI

Had no drug problem – despite her face and verbal admittance to smoking pot plastered on thesmokinggun.com…

She HAS no street creds, whining and crying through 23 thousand dollar days of expensive, sequestered silence, despite all those self-defense and karate lessons daddy had to pay for, cringed from testing her skill accreditation when the thought of being amongst the “common” women’s prison population…

In ONE breath blaming it all on claustrophobia and ADD! Oh, please!

OJ, Paris, Scooter Libby…

G-R-E-E-N is the only color the blind goddess of justice sees…

So we have the Jena six, who after nooses hung in the “white tree,” retaliatory beat downs because the clowns in the school administration did NOTHING to diffuse the situation – racist taunts and threats by the DA to “sign away their lives with the stroke of a pen” face “attempted murder charges, and assault by…. ‘Tennis shoe’” and multiple, consecutive, immoral sentences…

Mychal Bell faces a hell of 22 years in prison,

Five of his friends await similar charges on second-degree attempted murder and conspiracy charges.

On a case that most likely, since blacks are less than 20 percent of the population of Jena, Louisiana will get argued before… The Supreme Court!

Like the saviors these kids need are Alito, Roberts, Kennedy, Scalia and Uncle Clarence Thomas!

And I retort:

* “Scooter Libby, AKA Federal Inmate No. 28301-016, walks free” …

And so does scoot our civil liberties out the door, out the window and the belief in a society where “no man (or woman) is above the law”…

I’ll believe Paris’ change from party girl to charity when I see Scooter spill the beans on the neocon primates Bush and Cheney with an intact 5th Amendment in his back pocket, while they run out the appeals’ clock to January 20, 2009!
