I’ve been waiting 45 minutes for Big Government to post the new clip but it looks like this is the best we’ll do for now. Fifty-eight seconds long and it looks like we’ve got (a) a conspiracy to smuggle underaged sex slaves across the border and (b) a kinda sorta proposition to Hannah Giles. Full clip to come, if/when it’s posted.
You’re all modern-day McCarthyites for watching this. You know that, right?

The man who was interviewed caught my attention when my cop radar started beeping. This guy is the real deal. He’s not the half crazy former hooker that claims to have shot her husband. As I watched him, I recognized he was actually interviewing the two people in front of him. He wasn’t sure what to make of them, probably because they were so over the top, he figured they were either legit and easy marks, or the two worst undercover cops he had ever met.
When he was talking, his hand was over his mouth in a closed manner, that means he wasn’t trusting the two. He also spoke in generalities, “I have contacts…” For what exactly? Getting close enough to the edge to see if the two would bite, but not over the edge to get arrested.
The next test was offering to buy the prostitute. He asked how much. She stumbled. He knew something was up. If she had been having sex for money for years, as she claimed, she would have run down the laundry list of prices for services, like a waitress at the local Outback, ending up with the whole weekend for “x” dollars.
The great thing about a serious bad guy is they are usually in the business to make money. They are greedy. So even though he was being cautious, he greed drove him to make enough of a statement to look real bad. If the San Diego PD did their job they’d be pulling his criminal history and digging into his background and his associates. Employed where he is, in the city where he is makes good sense that he is in fact a human smuggler.
What better place to be and job to have to help promote your second career?

Paul McCarthy? Joe McCarthy? I thought we were talking about Charlie McCarthy.

I’ve never heard any cheap shots.

He refers to Beck as ‘the Backbencher’ and lost me as a listener, that and his penchant for reading his book on air instead of doing current research on a current topic until they pass him by. Then he will go on the air at 6 pm Eastern and talk about how he is ahead of all the other radio hosts because they do the next day what he did he previous day. The fact that they air before the stories he speaks of break. Don’t get me wrong he’s a brilliant man but his pettiness is boorish.

I hope Hannity is not involved with Levin’s ego trip. There are so many things that Levin could do and say to help the cause, and he chooses to diss on Beck.

Daggett read the article again. Be critical, don’t be played. Is there a difference tween a police report and an incident report? If no, then why use both terms?
“Philadelphia ACORN president Carol Hemingway said in a statement on Monday that “after causing a major disturbance, they were asked to leave the office, and a police report was filed.”
Hemingway e-mailed copies of the incident report to the news media”
So where is the police report? “and a police report was filed.”
So where’s the “incident report”? is the “incident report” an IN HOUSE ACORN report?
E-mailed to “friendly” reporters don’t cut it!
Acorn’s credibility is zero right now ya think they would be above board to support their clam?
Beatrice Lewis also claimed they kicked em out of San Diego as well.
Opps, guess the new tape puts the lie to that eh?
