Gambling with Nancy Grace

 She is a unique human being.
 
 I watched the most recent  about Scott Peterson, and Grace was nothing short of amazing.
 
 She was ridiculing what she claims is Mark Geragos's obsession with Satanic cults.
(To this day, has anyone heard Mark Geragos mention the words, "Satanic cults?")
 Grace beats the Satanic cult drum like Bush beats the WMD drums for Saddam.

 When  remarked that Grace had no way to know for certain that a Satanic cult didn't do this crime,
 Grace said, "I would be willing to bet everything I own that a Satanic cult was not involved in this."

 I tried to think of a sentence that was more empty than that one and I failed to come up with anything.

 In poker, if you say, "I would be willing to bet all my chips that I have the best hand," nobody
 bats an eye because talk is cheaper than Ann Coulter on a first date. When you push your chips in,
 then the others know you're serious - but talking about betting is nothing more than verbal masturbation.
 So when this unprincipled distorter claims she'd be willing to bet all - she's just handling herself.

 Sidebar:
 I'm not sure why she hates Mark Geragos with so much passion.  To me, Geragos seems like a
 really friendly guy who's almost always smiling when he's not in court. Maybe Grace is a hard-core,
 anti-Clinton, pro-impeachment shrillest of all harpies and just can't forgive Mark for taking this gig.

 Several times, she attacked Mark for selling out for the cash.  I'm no expert on this case, (wish I had
 a Peterson point person) but I'm sure I heard that Peterson was dead broke, so I fail to sdee what money
 Mark was selling out to.

 Againa and again, Grace said, "Geragos said on this show many times that he thought Peterson was
 going to be convicted, but after they hired him, (heavy emphasis on hired) he changed his tune."
 As far as I'm concerned, she's calling Mark a liar and a whore and a sellout, and she should be slapped.

 A few minutes later, she attacked Dr Henry Lee the same way, saying he was hired to render
 an opinion, suggestion with her vocal inflection that Lee was also a crooked man, willing to lie for cash.

 Of course,  like a true Democrat, failed to straighten out Grace's lies. But then a caller
 reminded the panel that since Lee is employed by the state of Connecticut, it would be illegal for him
 to accept outside employment such as this, and 100% of his fee in the Peterson case was being donated
 to the Connecticut Pathology Association, or something like that.  Grace knew that, but like Ann Coulter,
 she can't let the facts get in the way of a good personal slur.

 Then she accused Geragos of somehow rewiring his mind to deny to himself that Peterson was guilty.
 She made a big production out of this, saying that if some evidence were to somehow creep into his brain
 that Peterson was guilty, his brain would find a way to reject that without letting the thought connect with his
 conscious intellect.  Whew, Nancy, do you kiss your Steely Dan with that foul mouth?

 Dr. Robi Ludwig, Clinical Psychologist joined Nancy in these wild, no-foundation attacks.
 This lady gives all ditsy blonde women a terrible stigma they don't deserve.

 Check out this exchange, from the transcript:

 CALLER: First, I just want to say Nancy, you're great. But I have a little bit of a background in psychology,
 and it seems to me through Scott's interviews that he meets a lot of the Harris checklists for psychopathy,
 the superficial charm, the pathological lying, the lack of remorse, lack of skills, shallow affect, promiscuous
 sexual behavior, and I'm wondering if either the defense or the state has ordered a psychological for this guy?

 KING: Dr. Ludwig?

 LUDWIG: That would be an excellent idea and your caller is absolutely right. The fact that he had an affair and
 presented himself to be one way when he was really doing something else would suggest a sociopathy, that he felt
 the rules did not apply to him, that he was special in some way. So that would be an excellent idea because that would
 -- you know, if he comes out as a sociopath, then he certainly would look more guilty and more suspicious.

 Wow!
 Men who cheat on their wives are sociopaths?
 Doesn't that mean American has about 50 million sociopaths running loose?
 
 I find it amazing that Peterson is seen as guilty beyond all doubt to these women because:
his "charm" is deemed "superficial"
his lying is seen as "pathological"
the lack of remorse?  I'll give them that one, mostly to save time.
they've deemed him a man with a "lack of skill," which needs to be explained.
his "affect" is "shallow," whatever the hell that means
he had at least one affair, so that's further proof that he's a sociopathic killer.

 Wouldn't that make every man in the NBA a sociopathic killer?
 
 GRACE: Scott Peterson not only had one affair but many affairs including strippers, this Amber Frey.
 Not only keeping it a secret he was married but going so far, allegedly, to tell his lovers he was a widow.
 And then boom, the next week he was. I don't think he's clairvoyant, Larry.

 The transcript is unable to convey her monsterously sarcastic tone when she said, "clairvoyant."
 Hey Nancy, I have a big-ass thunderbolt for you:  Cheating men lie - that's a fact. 
 What was Scott supposed to do, say he's never been married?
 His tarts might wonder why his ring finger has a slight indentation where a ring was once worn.

 Unlike these harpies, it's possible for me to be wrong, but it's my guess Nancy caught a boyfriend or
 her husband cheating, and that made all cheating men anti-Christs, and Scott must pay for that.

 More wildness from Grace:

 GRACE: Do I believe the satanic cult theory? No. Because there are less than 10 founded and substantiated
 satanic cult killings in the history of this country, and I don't think Laci Peterson and Connor Peterson's death is the 11th.

 I can just hear Nancy Grace in 1995:  There are no founded and substantiated cases in the history of this country where
 a Heisman Trophy winner murdered his wife by trying to decapitate her, and I don't think Nicole Simpson is the first.

 ...but wait - that could never happen, because in Grace's world, the accused are always guilty.
 Just think what kind of juror this I-guarantee-I-know-it-all nutcase would make...
 
 One more excerpt, where Nancy Grace predicts the future, just like Rush.
 
 GRACE: Larry, we keep seeing those shots of Scott Peterson's family giving statements, recent statements to the press.
 If the Rocha family had given those statements that Scott Peterson, they thought, was guilty, they would be hauled into
 the courtroom and held in contempt.  And I find a double standard going on here. I understand they're in a lot of pain,
 but their continued violation of this gag order I don't think is appropriate.

 Nancy, you can't equate the victim with the accused.  If the police have one tenth of the evidence they claim, there would
 be no need for Laci's family to hold a press conference to accuse Scott since they can't know what happened to her.

 On the other hand, the state has announced their intention to murder Scott.
 You think his family should stay out of this fight?

 Nancy, the way you lie and distort the facts, you should be on FOX, not Court TV.
 I find Nancy Grace to be immensely entertaining, like watching our extra-stupid president trying to
 pronounce a world leader's name or watching Mr Perfect miss a two-foot putt.

 Also, I'll admit once again that Scott might be guilty.
 The only way you'd admit it's possible he's innocent is if someone wrote you a check.
 If the evidence proves he did the crime, I say punish him to the full extent.
 But let's not inject the man because he lied to his girlfriend and his "affect" is "shallow."

 Lastly, if Geragos gets Peterson off, we all know Nancy will say "it's because he's so slick."
 But if Geragos can flat-out prove Scott is innocent, what will the second-shrillest harpy in America say?

 Nancy, will you go on   and apologize to Scott and retire your lying ass from show business?

 Now that's what I call a bet.
