I see that Governor Krispy Kreme has decided to reimburse the folks of New Jersey for his little helicopter ride. Good move, Gov. I think this was starting to become a problem.
Did anyone notice Mitt Romney's announcement that he is running for president, today? Anybody? Anybody at all? Don't worry, you are not alone if you didn't. The guy made Tim Pawlenty's coming out party look like a rock concert. The word robot comes to mind. Somebody please get that dude some Red Bull. Fast! *yawn*
Finally, I am going to comment on this Oklahoma case because so many of you have asked me to.
First, let me say for the record, that urban terrorist who rob and steal from law abiding citizens deserve to be punished to the fullest extent of the law. However, as someone who has sworn to uphold the law and honor the legal system, I cannot stress enough that everyone in A-merry-ca is entitled to be judged within that system. Not at the hands of some guy who thinks he is Charles f*&^%$g Bronson. Yeah yeah, I know that some of you are outraged, because, god forbid, a jury actually did their job and found this "good man" guilty.
Sorry, by pumping five bullets into that incapacitated punk who was already bleeding from the first shot that he used to split his wig, Jerome Ersland became no better than the punk who had just robbed him. He became a criminal. Jerome Ersland deserved to go to jail. He deserved to be punished. A jury of his peers obviously felt that way and they found him guilty. Also keep in mind, that two older men who recruited the boys to do the crime are already doing life thanks to the felony murder doctrine. So what's the problem? Justice was served.
And before you wingnuts start saying what a hero Mr. Ersland was, (some of you already have) it's important to remember that he lied about being shot; he lied about facing combat in Iraq; he lied about the kids firing guns; and he tried to get a doctor to lie about his fake wounds to bolster his self defense claim. Yep, as the saying goes: "his milk ain't clean". Oh, and please don't play the race card; he was convicted by an all white jury.
"Although I still believe in the American jury system, there are way too many morons who rule juries and come out with the most outrageous of verdicts. That’s the case with the jury that found pharmacist Jerome Ersland guilty of first-degree murder for shooting an armed man who entered his pharmacy waving a gun. Ersland, who is a disabled military veteran, shot him to defend himself and his customers. Now, he could spend the rest of his life in prison. It’s absurd in the United States of America that a jury acquits O.J. Simpson of murder and finds Jerome Ersland guilty of it. This guy, Ersland, is a hero and saved countless lives. He should be getting medals and keys to the city, not put in the slammer. Soooooo frickin’ insane:"

Oh boy, O.J. again. Sorry Debbie, this is not "frickin insane"; it's called justice.
