What say you now? He's brilliant, calculating, and I'll just bet ya he has his ducks in a row, and it's going to be a thing of beauty to watch!

1. Many things were said way back when.
Some of them were...ahem...inaccurate.

Which ones? What am I, yer' mother? ;-)

3. ...
:* That's a smooch for you, T_S! And no, you're not my mom, no one could ever replace her.
But you are one of my first inspirations for liking and posting on DU, whether you know it or not. You are quiet, but carry a big stick, and I've always appreciated you.
:loveya:

Thanks.

15. "Shake it!" I'm a fraud inadvertently.
I went to Babylon H.S., grew up after age 9 at Oak Beach, Babylon, NY, and I am a sister. Very easy stuff that got twisted. I've been asked if I'm a 'sista' from Jamaica, too. :-)
And you? That can't be your real name, or is it? I do love it.

19. No. Just a nom de guerre.
When you said you were from NY, I just put 2 and 2 together. I am rather familiar with The Island, having once worked for its #1 export:

Twisted Sister. ;-)

2. Just two weeks ago!
When I posted a couple of previews of the trial: "Nothing will come of this trial!"

Well, maybe. But how the hell would anyone know two weeks before this trial starts what is going to come out of it?

6. Because, to put it bluntly...
There are some people who could sit down to the most remarkable and amazing banquet ever prepared, and they would still be compelled to climb up on the table and take a great big shit, right in the middle of it.

I guess it's a gift, I dunno. :eyes:

8. I'm talking a year+ ago when this first started, and continued.
Remember Fitzmas? But the man is brilliant and it's being proved, to my great joy!

17. I know. I was just pointing out that they are still up to it. In fact...
Edited on Wed Jan-31-07 12:29 AM by Hissyspit
One of the posts in one of my threads was: "Forget about Fitzmas already!"

I'll forget about it when the Libby trial is over. And any possible investigations and leads that arise from it are completely followed up on and played out. The Watergate, Iran-Contra and Savings and Loan scandal investigations went on for 10 years+.

9. When it comes to the law, people must learn patience.
Some of these procedures can last many years, sometimes over a decade if involved parties employ many delaying tactics to avoid final judgment.

14. What results do you expect...
This early in the trial? Should Fitz have double-tapped someone by this time?
