Black defendants don't have a chance in the South Link Troy Davis was put to death by lethal injection Wednesday for the 1989 murder of a cop, maintaining his innocence until the end after convincing thousands of it, but not the justice system. His execution came after a three-hour hold while the Supreme Court dithered. In the end the court refused to stop the execution, despite calls for clemency from Jimmy Carter, Pope Benedict XVI and others. Davis' attorneys say seven of nine key witnesses against him recanted all or parts of their testimony, but state and federal judges repeatedly ruled against granting him a new trial. Media witnesses said that on his death bed, Davis told the family of the slain officer, that he was very sorry for their loss but that he wasn't responsible for his death. "It's not my fault; I did not have a gun," he said while strapped to a gurney. "I did not personally kill your son, father, brother," he said, Cook reported. He asked supporters to "dig deeper" into the case "so you can find the real truth." . "For those about to take my life," he told prison officials, "may God have mercy on your souls. May God bless your souls." Send e-mail to Bart

Maybe we'd have fewer wars if fewer men volunteered to go to war. If we had, say, 200,000 soldiers total, Bush would not have been able to invade Afghanistan or Iraq and hundreds of thousands of lives would be saved. Send e-mail to Bart Subject: Occupy Wall Street protest Hi Bart, You'd asked if the Occupy Wall St. event happened. Here's a link to great photos of it: Renewably, Doug, Engineer with a Conscience Send e-mail to Bart Why I left the Left
by a coward named Jim Goad Link Even though a white male, I dutifully absorbed and assented to the liberal blueprint. Journalism degree in tow, I set about to right historical wrongs. I appointed myself an advocacy journalist who would defend the poor against the rich and the weak against the strong. In many cases, I didn’t realize I’d be defending the stupid against the smart. Ironically, it was precisely this hands-on advocacy journalism that led me to abandon leftist thought entirely. It was a long and painful process, like an old car where the parts start to go and then one day the engine finally throws a rod. One experience after the other led to more chinks in my ideological armor than there were Chinks in Mao’s Red Army. I have no idea what this racist is talking about, but I'm glad he was able to work in his "chink" joke. Send e-mail to Bart Subject: ideal candidate This guy would make an ideal Democrat. I hope he runs in 2012. At least he has what is needed in Washington, COrtegon Send e-mail to Bart Subject: Poker Bart, "The Amended Complaint alleges that in 2010 FTP's started facing increased difficulty collecting funds from US players. FTP simply credited players' accounts with mondey that had never actually been collected from players' bank accounts. FTP allowed players to gamble with, and lose to other players, thiis phantom money. When other players won these phantom funds, their accounts increased, but FTP never had the money!" This was the big story in the DOJ filing, not the Lederer/Ferguson mess. I disagree. If I'm Howard or Chris, and the government is demannding $30M from me, that's a big deal. Screwing America out of their right to play poker is a big deal, too. TV poker has all but disappeared, too. NBC's Poker After Dark has been re-running the same three poker games for months. FTP committed felony bank fraud 93 times from Jan to April 2011 when they credited my FTP account for $10 deposit amounts from my BofA account, and never debited the lack of collection like PokerStars did. Poker Stars only let me do one deposit, and then backcharged to my FTP account. I got $940 worth of unpaid money play out of FT. All that was lost, any someone else won it. So when it worked through the system, someone didn't get paid. Is that an assumption or a fact? "They're guilty cause the feds say so" doesn't fly with me. Look at the DOJ document online and you'll see what they threw in about page 4. This is not to say that all poker is bad; I love it!. But, crooks are crooks. Just look at Tom Dwan's posting on 2+2, saying that a big mistake was made, and then many others followed. I think that's the phantom funds deposit acceptance, w'o collecting. Fred I lost you there and I was trying hard to pay attention. But this looks super-dirty on all levels. And why did you mention, "crooks are crooks?" Did I say the world was honest? No, I said I'll bet those poker legends are innocent - so why were they indicted? Taking multi-millions from a sinking ship full of crooks with a paper trail? They're too smart to throw everything away for a lousy bet like that. Better

Palin's Husband wants Out?
Todd "humiliated" by her affairs in new book Link The National Enquirer -- which has indeed broken major news stories over the last few years -- said Todd was particularly outraged by Palin's brother's quote in the book that his sister's marriage was over. "The final straw was McGinniss quoting Sarah's brother Chuckie telling a friend they don't have a marriage." a friend told the tabloid. "Todd felt as if he was stabbed in the back by his own brother-in-law after 23 years of being married to the guy's sister, and having five kids together." The friend said Todd is humiliated and feels like he is a national laughing stock. "Todd and Sarah were headed for divorce, but Sarah got pregnant soon after, so they decided to stay together," Wooten said. Palin's former brother-in-law Mike Wooten confirmed the relationship. It ended the business partnership, and it almost ended their marriage Todd is said to be "fuming" over Wooten's confirmation. Send e-mail to Bart Subject: Poker Bart, ironically, Obama, when he was a St. Sen. in Illinois, used to play poker every Friday night with fellow lawmakers -- for MONEY! I can't figure out why the DOJ is pursuing this, unless someone stands to make a lot of money from online poker being banned. Cheers, Rick Janes ...someone like Harry Reid? Send e-mail to Bart More blame Obama No time for jobs, Obama's going after BIG poker Link "The blame-it-on-my-predecessor line is of decreasing help to an incumbent," says William Mayer. "It was perfectly fine when he took office, and even reasonable a year or two in, but eventually, increasingly, it becomes Obama's economy. It won't surprise me if by the time you get to the 2012 election Obama has overtaken Bush in that regard." Obama - where is his head? Send e-mail to Bart Subject: Poker
Hey Bart, I’m surprised at you. You usually can smell a scam. Thank you... Surely you’re not suggesting no one at full tilt could have been rigging outcomes! If I thought that, I would have written that. That site was uncanny. Too pat. The randomness was rather fixed. You mean those tournaments I won were fixed? How hard would it be to set up dummy players that win the tourneys? For the Full Tilt programmers, it would be easy. Years ago, a FT cheating programmer gambled with the big boys. (He rigged the system so he could see their cards) Like an idiot, he won almost every hand so his guilt was obvious. If he had any brains, he would won just $2,000 a week and retired rich but most criminals are stupid and greedy and they usually get caught. I played the dollar tournaments so I'm pretty sure they were legit. Why work for an hour to steal $4.60? With that much money involved and no gambling commission oversight, I’d be surprised if they weren’t stealing. mcfarland You make a great point. If the "crime" of poker was legalized, they could force all the poker companies to base their operations in Nevada and have the Nevada Gaming Commission regulate their business just like a bricks-and-mortar casino. It's the same argument with pot - would you rather your kids buy pot from a Walmart pharmacy or from some back-alley felon who also sells coke and LSD? (and if you say "My kids don't smoke pot," you're lying to yourself) I departed that scene lickity split, myself. Crazy Chris in Boca If you're gambling with the big boys, thousands of dollars per hand, you should move to Vegas and play the game live instead of trusting an unknown person who's somewhere where the law can't touch him. For dollar-an-hour players like me, the Internet is was perfect. Quotes "Absolutely. I want to get a chance to put my helmet on whatever's hurt. Tony Romo's ribs—I'm going to be asking for some corner blitzes." -- Redskins cornerback DeAngelo Hall, saying he's hungry for Romo ribs, Link Send e-mail to Bart An Execution I can Agree With... Rethug executed for Texas pickup dragging death James Byrd Jr, died like no man should die Link A white supremacist Republican was executed Wednesday for the dragging death of a black man. James Byrd Jr., 49, was chained to the back of a pickup truck and pulled whip-like to his death along a bumpy asphalt road in one of the most grisly hate crime murders in recent Texas history. Lawrence Brewer was pronounced dead at 6:21 p.m. Brewer's parents and two of Byrd's sisters were in attendance. Besides Brewer, John William King also was convicted and sent to death row for Byrd's death, which shocked the nation for its brutality. King's death sentence remains under appeal. A third man, Shawn Berry, 36, received a life prison term. This is how Der Monkey Fuhrer got his "giggling murderer" reputation. When asked about it during the 2000 campaign, Bush's third-grade brain giggled and said, "Law of the land," which was the totality of Bush's thinking when it came to killing people. When you ask Bush about abortion, his third-grade brain responds, "Every life is sacred." When you ask Bush about the thousands of soldiers he lied into an early grave, his third-grade brain responds, "Gotta defend freedom." Bush's third-grade brain is unable to accept the complexities of live and death. If "every life is sacred," why lead the Western Hemisphere in state murders? Bush's pea-sized brain has no answers for such complexities... ...and America wants to do it all again with Rick Perry? Send e-mail to Bart Business slow? Time to advertise!

Link A few years back the CIA captured Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, who then disclosed the name of Bin Laden's closest aide after a ‘session' with top Romanian interrogator known only as ‘Radu' The CIA apparently discovered Bin Laden's most trusted aide was also a keen online poker player, with both pieces of information confirmed after the capture of Khalid's replacement, Faraj al-Libi. In August 2010, the CIA then learnt that Bin Laden was living within a mansion compound in Pakistan, although they did not know which one or where it was located. On April 15, 2011 the ‘Big Three' poker sites had their domain names seized by US authorities and allegedly a deal was struck whereby the CIA received information on all online poker transactions in Pakistan and Afghanistan in exchange for the return of their domains. So, Obama was right. Only super-evil terrorists play poker. Send e-mail to Bart Bumper Stickers!

Link Last issue's Mystery Celebrity Link Bart, that's Barbara Eden. Not only in good shape then; she was a babe up to her 60s. Now she's dropped down to just really good looking. Jim Bart, that's Barbara Eden. Years ago I was married to a senior Flight Attendant with Hughes Air West. My wife was #1 on a trip that put the crew at LAX and then to LAS. Up in the departure area was this really foxy lady. It was Miss Eden. Of course the Captain was lusting about her. The Flight Attendants were all Senior and set about to get even, so they asked her on boarding if she would help them get even and she was all in favor.Soon after departure, the call came from the cockpit for coffee. The F/A gave Barbara the coffee and opened the cockpit door for her. She coolly went in, bent over and asked the Captain if wanted cream or sugar. He turned his head right and came immediately in contact with her left breast. Miss Eden coolly asked him if he needed anything else. Of course the F/As got all this on tape. I actually knew the Captain. Jimbo Jimbo, thanks for that. Send e-mail to Bart Astrocat Strikes again! Send e-mail to Bart Every year, the UN invites
