And another answer receivedcontaining a fourth wimpy ass excuse from Frank for failing to back up his bluster.

Here’s how you started out, at the 7th comment:

An indictment is as good as a guilty plea, when it’s leveled at a Republican or a Conservative.

But when a liberal Congressman is caught with a freezer full of Stouffer’s Lasagna and $90,000 cash, we await the outcome of a trial to see whether or not he’s guilty

Can’t remember what you’ve written before? If I wrote as much drivel as you have, I’d have trouble keeping track as well.

At least I am not smoking crack when I post comments. Get thee to a rehab!

At least you’re also not using your frontal lobes when you post.

ROTFLMFAO!

God you guys are so fucking pathetic.

You and Dennis are two of the biggest failures as human beings I’ve ever encountered. Unbelievable.

Stop writing checks your sorry ass can’t cash.

At least I am not smoking crack when I post comments. Get thee to a rehab!

Ah, expected answer received. Frank talks big only when safely ensconced behind his keyboard but wimps out when actually called on to back up his bluster.

Hypocrite. Coward. Joke.

Indeed, why should Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh, Laura Ingram, et al, get to have all the fun this way, and not us “Lefties”?

Then he claims I should be informed about a subject, before I comment on it.

You certainly weren’t informed on Senator Stevens’ history of his indictment and trial when you brought up the subject, as I demonstrated in that thread.

Let me quote from that thread, since you deserve another taunting:

Dark Avenger pretty much had his way with AO.

Eeeeewwww. Sorry. Mental picture and all.

I don’t know what he is / was talking about; I defy him, or any one else for that matter, to explain its significance. Then , he calls me a “dummy” and an “ass”.

Actually, I was thanking you for inspiring a great American comedian, can’t you learn how to take a compliment? Don’t be shy and retiring, that isn’t the real you.

Talk about the world turned upside down! D A , don’t stand so close to that crack pipe, dude !

Thanks for the warning, derived from personal experience, no doubt!

BTW, I also have British citizens and American in my background, it took an Act of Congress for my grandmother as she was considered a Chinese citizen in 1948 despite being a British subject at the same time, so you now know the rest of the story…………………………….

PTCruiser: You’re reaching too hard for a “gotcha”. I called every liberal that — that was part of the reason for the eye rolling.

No, I’m not, Frank, but it is nice to discover that your sense of humor is limited.

Incidentally, my parents were born in the United States. My great grandfather and his entire family were granted US citizenship by the United States Navy.

Lighten up, Frank. When was the U.S. Navy allowed to grant citizenship to non-Americans?

On my mother’s side , my grandfather got his citizenship after he got permission to fight on the British side in World War I, then fought on the US side, when we entered the war.

So your maternal grandfather was a Soviet citizen? (:~)

Frank DiSalle: Jaim, get a grip

Not every library in America is a Carnegie library, Frank. Many are public libraries supported with public funds. You don’t really prove your point by using a subset. It’s like saying everyone in America is male because you’re only looking at a specific part of the population.

I suppose you think when I ride the bus, I’m a socialist.

Well, certainly there are folks on the right who would think so. Socialism, by their apparent definition, would include just about any publicly funded service.

BTW, still looking for your reply to my invitation. Which will it be, Frank?

Talk about the world turned upside down! D A , don’t stand so close to that crack pipe, dude !

“Hello, dummy!”

Frank, pretty please, be informed about a subject before you make an ass of yourself again on one of these thread on said subject.

Jaim, get a grip

I suppose you think when I ride the bus, I’m a socialist.

Stop being a jerk. It’s obvious you are so far from persuading me, or any one , of any thing you believe, that you have become Zythonesque.

Libraries are socialist state-funded institutions.

Why are you such a socialist, Frank?

Nah, it’s just that you mentioned how patriotic they were, so I was merely asking how you’d think they’d stand on this issue.

I’ts not my fault that you seem to have lost sight of reading for comprehension somewhere in the 5th or 6th grade.

Is it possible that there could be so many simple – minded liberals? You sure like to pretend you’re smart.

I dunno, it seems like a simple-minded fool such as yourself isn’t in any position to talk about pretending to be smart, unless you think that insults substitute for discourse, as in this thread, or this one here:

DA: Did I make a mistake and mention a double standard?
Did I forget that Mr Kerik has only been indicted?

No, the point is that Jefferson was dealt with BEFORE he was indicted. That kinda puts the crimp in “Liberals treated differently than conservatives” BS.

Did I forget that Ted Stevens was indicted and forced to step out of his race for the Senate and then exonerated?

No, you forgot that he ran for re-election while under indictment indicted and tried for alleged crimes and lost.

From the Wiki on Stevens:

On July 29, 2008, Stevens was indicted by a federal grand jury on seven counts of failing to report gifts received from VECO Corporation and its CEO Bill Allen on his Senate financial disclosure forms, formally charged with violation of provisions of the Ethics in Government Act. Stevens pleaded not guilty and asserted his right to a speedy trial, which began on September 25 in Washington, DC, to have the opportunity to clear his name before the November election. However, on October 27, 2008, barely a week before the election, Stevens was found guilty on all seven counts.[1][2] However, National Public Radio reported on April 1, 2009 that United States Attorney General Eric Holder, citing serious prosecutorial misconduct during the trial, decided to drop all charges against Stevens—an action that vacated his conviction.[3]

Not quite the same as being exonerated.

Did you not notice (a few lines below your WikiPedia reference), this :
“the Jefferson Parish share of the district voted for Jefferson by a staggering 71% to 29%, clearly swinging the election in his favor.”

Yes, he won in 2006, and the indictment came out after he had won that election. If you think the same result would’ve taken place had the indictment come before his election, then I’ve a bridge over the Tule River to show you.

You apparently didn’t notice this, BTW:

Following Jefferson’s reelection, Speaker-elect Nancy Pelosi announced that Jefferson would not regain his seat on the Ways and Means Committee as long as he is not “cleared of wrongdoing in an ongoing federal corruption probe”.

And that, too was before his indictment.

Stick to the point? Yeah, well, the point was / is : An indictment is meaningless when the person indicted is a liberal

Except Jefferson lost his chairmanship before he was indicted, and didn’t get it after he was re-elected, and was re-elected before the indictment.

but when it’s a conservative or a Republican, they’re ordering the rope as they build the scaffold.

You’re as accurate with this remark as with your version of political history, and that’s putting it kindly.

Go away, or I shall taunt you a second time.

That’s a book.

You may find it in a library — you know, one of those places where they keep a lot of books.

If you tell me where you live, I’ll tell where you can find one. As this would be your first trip, I can give you some tips that will make the trip fascinating.

And, by the way, Bozo, when it comes to being wrong about things , I’ll put my average up against yours any day.

Any proof? Seeing as how you’ve been wrong about, well, everything before, I’m a tad skeptical.

They hired my great-Grandfather and his orchestra to play on a ship called the USS Trenton, in exchange for which he and his family were all granted US Citizenship (I suppose the other band members were, too, but I don’t know for sure). My grandfather went on to become the musical director for Anna Pavlova, and his own orchestra played in Ebbetts Field in 1924.

In 1941, Gov Warren began locking up Italians along with the Japanese, until somebody discovered they had locked up Joe DiMaggio’s father. Why didn’t they ever lock up German – Americans? (True quote from a Roosevelt crony) “Because they vote Democratic!”

My cousin tried to learn as much about our grandparents, and the lives of our aunts and uncles when they were young, several years ago, before my Aunt Dora, her Mom, died.
