Hypocritic Oath

Time for an update on A Monty Python Skit. Former attorney Lynne Stewart is still going strong 34 months after she was released from prison because her doctor swore she had at most 18 months to live as a result of breast cancer ...  see: NY Post Update. Some constitution this woman must have ... only it is not our Constitution ... which she hates with a burning passion. For she was the lawyer for the "blind sheik" who had masterminded the original attempt to take down the World Trade Center with a truck bomb in 1993. However, this evil woman went beyond defending this terrorist ... she smuggled the sheik's directives out of his prison cell and to his followers. Are we allowed to say she was a "snivelling traitor?"

But not the cleverest of traitors for she was caught and sentenced to 10 years in prison of which she served less than 3 due to a sympathetic doctor's (purposefully?) bad prognosis. So now she is still actively proselytizing her poisonous rhetoric to possible emulators of the sheik's ilk ... ick!

It would seem that this doctor made a mistake when he/she graduated from medical school ... and took the hypocritic oath.

Obama Nation Update

Back in early 2008, well before Barack Obama was elected, I made some predictions as to what might happen if this were to occur … see: Obama Nation. I here list those predictions that came true or are close to coming true:

- The U.S. will recognize Hamas
- Taxes will be increased across the board
- The budgets for the Defense Department and U.S intelligence activities will be slashed
- Sharia law will be made a local option throughout the U.S.
- All U.S. soldiers will be out of Iraq and Afghanistan by July 1, 2009
- All wire-taps will be stopped and those who have been tapped will be informed and any such evidence collected will be destroyed
- Illegal immigrants will be granted amnesty and given Social Security benefits

- Presidential pardons – Lynne Stewart and all current and past Guantanamo prisoners

- Oil will hit $200 per barrel
- A national carbon tax will be endorsed by the U.S. and implemented through the U.N. 

9.3 out of 22 isn't a bad batting average.

Our Next Attorney General

Since Eric Holder has announced his departure from this post, there has been great speculation as to whom President Obama might name to replace him. Such names as Deval Patrick, current Governor of Massachusetts, have popped up … even though he strenuously denies that he is in the running. That being the case, I would like to offer my suggestions as to who it might be. How about?

      -        Lani Guinier – lawyer, rejected nominee to the Supreme Court

-        Bill Ayers – former Barack Obama neighbor, often needing a lawyer

-        George Clooney – played a lawyer in “Intolerable Cruelty”

-        Bill Clinton – disbarred lawyer for lying under oath

-        Lynne Stewart – The Blind Sheikh’s lawyer, convicted of abetting terrorism

-        Michelle Obama – former lawyer and famed nutritionist

-        Eliot Spitzer – roue, lawyer and former governor of New York

-        Anthony Weiner – out-of-work protégée of the lawyer, Charles Schumer
