I often feel bad and I feel like in my own small way I’m picking on Bachmann and Palin
I even understand what she's saying, but it's still wrong
God she's a moron...
She's basically saying that the founding fathers laid the foundation for an ultimately free society and the end of slavery
But they didn't end slavery
More retroactive spin. She had no clue...again.
"Some of the founding fathers worked tirelessly to end slavery...at the same time some of them worked tirelessly to keep slavery. In the end the founding fathers voted to keep slavery. But that's OK, because they made an amendable constitution in case it ever came up again...so that counts! Yay founding fathers! (waves flag!)"
Right. In Bizarro World, maybe.
In the end, emancipation was achieved by an executive order as a strategy during a war.
One might argue that the founding fathers also worked tirelessly to both start and end Prohibition.
I hope my obituary contains the phrase "loudmouthed malcontent"
(RE The Casey Anthony murder trial, referring to the witness who found the body “pleading the 5th” when asked if he'd been threatened with federal prosecution. The article link is not included because the text was changed while we were reading it. - Mr. Silver)
Mr. Silver, what does this mean? (link removed as useless)
I mean what's your interpretation based on that little info
So I guess the guy that found the girl's remains was accused by law enforcement as possibly being involved in the crime?
I’m not really sure what scenarios you'd invoke the 5th
I guess, hypothetically, maybe he knew where the remains were because his drug dealer told him. But if he admits that he'd be incriminating himself?
As far as the Plead the 5th guy...well...
Wow...story changed since last I looked
He pleaded the 5th to the question if he'd been threatened
Which suggests either he was threatened and refuses to talk about it, fearing trouble...
or he already discussed this out of court as a possible line of valid but irrelevant questions that would be used to screw up the case, and the Prosecution asked him to trump the Defense strategy with an "I'm not answering" answer.
ah okay
I'm lost on this conversation
regarding the Casey Anthony trial
The guy that found the body apparently pleaded the 5th when asked if he'd been threatened with federal prosecution. Now he doesn't have to answer that or anything related to it.
Defense only has to establish enough reasonable doubt to convince a jury to acquit. So if the Prosecution could see an angle the Defense could use where the Prosecution looked like they were muscling witnesses or knew something “suspicious” about the witness...
They trumped it.
Defenses don't really need to setup an actual "defense", as much as just create general confusion, it seems.
That seems to be how people that are obviously guilty get away with stuff
Some inadmissible evidence, some testimonies thrown out, some inconsistent witness reports and they win a “Not Guilty”
Even if the witnesses all say "I saw so-and-so do it", if they can't agree on the color car the defendant was driving, their testimony is suddenly “questionable”.
12:37 PM Mr. Silver
Thank the Founding Fathers for predicting the need for the Fifth Amendment for this murder case.
12:52 PM Mr. Blue
Most ridiculous Facebook spam/chain/garbage of the year goes to:
"This year, July has 5 Fridays, 5 Saturdays and 5 Sundays. This happens once every 823 years. This is called “Money Bags”. So copy this to your status and money will arrive within 4 days. Based on Chinese philosophy Feng Shui. Those who read and do not copy will be without money. I am copying cause I'm not taking any chances!!!!"
I don't even know where to begin
Well a bunch of Dumbos cut down American flags someone near Pittsburgh
3:21 PM Mr. Silver
Motive?
3:21 PM Mr. Brown
They don't know who did it yet
They were cutting them down and leaving them on the ground
3:23 PM Mr. Blue
Cutting down the flag poles?
Or lowering the flags and removing them
3:24 PM Mr. Brown
They were flag poles put in for 4th of July in the town
3:25 PM Mr. Blue
Seems rather presumptuous to blame it on elephants
3:35 PM Mr. Silver
Well, you know what elephants are like, after all.
Afraid of mice, infuriated by flags
lunch
Lunch 2
Lunch 2? How come you get 2 lunches? What are you, a friggin halfling? LOL
Lunch 2, Electric Boogaloo
well I come in early to get that second lunch
Ohhhh
I then squish them both together to make one giant "Super Lunch!!!"
LOL
Nice
1:35 PM Mr. Gray
Pat did you take another level of Wizard or were you waiting to level? I couldn’t remember what level spells you have access to for the game
I need to check with Brad and see if he can do Invisibility to Undead
If so it will make our lives ALOT easier
I took level 3 wiz, can cast 2nd level spells, but only have 3...waiting to level again. Don’t currently have Invisibility to Undead in my spellbook
Ok. I figure anything we can use against them will be good. The ghost guards said “the rules of the dead do not apply to the living" at the gate, so I have a feeling if we get attacked or such by "ghost residents" we're gonna be screwed as far as any defense we try to come up with. Hoping to avoid issues if possible
Would be nice to skip it all after Mr. Silver spent so much time working on it
Still beat the encounters....still get exp....none of the bad juju LOL
"You step through the gate...yadda yadda yadda...you get through the ghost city."
"Anyway, the Lotus Spire is there...no biggy getting through it, you get the girl back. Well...good night of gaming...Let's hit the booze."
LMAO
Hey, if we are smart and can think of a way through, why the heck not?
Smart? Damn...you're planning to pull a fast one by changing tactics on me, eh?
We could always just send a few of the crew running and screaming through the city as decoys *snickers*
Dinner bell
LOL
Exactly
Captain: "Here...put on this special anti-ghost ointment. It will protect you"
Crew: "Why does it smell like BBQ sauce, sir?"
Crew: "Why does it smell like BBQ sauce, sir?"
I'm hoping to fill my last 15 minutes with more soul-crushing impotent reports
There ya go, stay positive
I figure if I want them, I won't get them.
If I do get them, it'll be a dream come true
LOL
