Every day I see the news I’m shocked that this parade of insanity is still in process. By now the coach of the Duke men’s lacrosse team should have returned, the team should be playing like normal and the accuser should have been mandated to wear a scarlet “L” for LIAR. But that’s not what’s happening. Despite the growing mountain of evidence that proves otherwise, this case is still being pushed by Durham District Attorney Mike Nifong. Folks in Durham North Carolina should be trying to recall Mike Nifong, never mind waiting till the election.
So far the prosecution has:
So far the defense has:
- No DNA match! More DNA tests are being performed, but we already know those won’t show a match either.
- The 2nd stripper’s bogus 911 call.
- A bunch of pictures, that show the strippers doing their thing and the accuser drunk or high. The time line of photos only has a gap of 20 minutes and the accuser says she was raped by 3 guys for 30 minutes. Also the pictures after the 20 minute gap show her in good shape. Then they show her drunk/high stripper butt probably fell down the stairs because she was so out of it. Hardly the look of someone who had a violent struggle with 3 men, but rather the look of someone under the influence of some booze or drugs. The guys were all drinking and that does nothing to show they raped anybody. Just that all of them were buzzed.
- When shown a photo line-up, the accuser could not pick all 3 with 100% certainty, that she says raped her for 30 minutes. She probably picked them because of marks she saw on their bodies. Anybody that knows a little bit about lacrosse knows that with lacrosse players it’s not a question of whether they have marks on their bodies, but how many marks they have today?!!! Because lacrosse is a much more violent sport than just some guys running in the grass with sticks. In the course of every game they hit each other with the sticks and knock each other around.
- The photos from that night show the stripper had marks on her body before the 20 minute gap and that she got more marks after her stripper butt fell down the stairs. The players say she was in the bathroom doing her nails and the pictures show paint marks that would be consistent with wet nail polish.
- After leaving the house the strippers went to Kroger. (Kroger is a supermarket. One of the better known names in the South and usually open 24 hours. So any stripper butts that want some late night food/refreshments can always go there.)
- A female security guard at the Kroger says that she saw the accuser. Because they were trying to get her to leave the 2nd stipper’s car. The accuser said nothing about rape and the female guard says there is “no way” that the accuser was raped based on how she looked and was acting that night.
- A police officer who saw the accuser that night says she was “just passed-out drunk” when he saw her.
- One of the accused has a mountain of evidence, that shows he was not even around the strippers for even a full 20 minutes. He’s got a cab driver vouching for him, ATM records, phone records and restaurant receipts.
- 47 out of 47 Duke lacrosse team players say nothing happened. Although all were not in the house that night, there were plenty of people there and not a single one of them has said something occurred. How many times can something illegal occur and 10 or more people agree that nothing happened? Not likely!
So this case has more than “reasonable doubt”, it has the makings of an outright lie!
Now in all this mess, enters King Pimp Jesse Jackson. Never mind all the other racial play going on. Jesse Jackson sees cameras and lights and he knows it’s show time!!!
He’s gone so far as to even have his Rainbow/PUSH Coalition offer the accuser a full college scholarship. This woman who will be proven to have lied about a rape and polarized an entire community and nation along racial lines, is getting a free ride from the man who is always causing polarization along racial lines. Check out this video from the Political Pit Bull, where Jesse tries to justify this on the Situation with Tucker Carlson. Yup cameras, lights and charity to a shady woman on full public display.
(It turns out she used to be married, so her kids may have been born in wedlock. Still she’s a woman of the night and made that choice herself. She’s a stripper working for an escort service to shake her butt. And who knows what else goes on with that. No, the guys calling her was not good, but they don’t call strippers every day. She’s a stripper and that’s her job whenever she’s called to work.)
Sports commentator Stephen A. Smith has some commentary about Jesse Jackson, that is very fitting.
Why is Jackson pushing his way into Duke situation?
Some people just need to go away. If not forever then at least for a little while.
I’m talking about the kind of people who’ve had their time. The kind of people whose substance has dwindled. The kind of people who’ve contaminated their own good deeds with bullying tactics and manipulation - all in the desperate pursuit of nothing but air time.
I’m talking about the one and only Rev. Jesse Jackson.
…
Eventually, the hope is that the truth will come out.
But what difference will it make, ultimately? Especially with the presence of Jesse Jackson?
You can tell Jesse Jackson is coming from a mile away. All you have to do is follow the noise and rest assured that the Baptist preacher’s fire-and-brimstone rhetoric won’t be far behind. So forgive me if I’m annoyed as the Rev. Jackson pushes his way into this situation, potentially polarizing communities nationwide in all the wrong ways, possibly jeopardizing our interest in the truth - purely because we’re disgusted by his version of things.
As well as his participation.
…
Why is the Rev. Jackson ingratiating himself into a situation that requires neither his presence nor input? Why publicize that his Rainbow/PUSH Coalition in Chicago will pay for the accuser to finish her education?
With the Rev. Jackson, we know why.
We know that the reverend loves attention. We know that attention leads to a perception of power. We know that perceived power is easily translated into riches. And with the Rev. Jackson - judging by accusations levied against him from black conservatives and other watchdog groups - we also know that’s how he works.

Read it all when you have time. But he makes a point about the public display of charity. I have something to share with the Reverend Jesse Jackson. Direct from Jesus Christ.
Matthew 6:1-4 (New King James Version)
1) “Take heed that you do not do your charitable deeds before men, to be seen by them. Otherwise you have no reward from your Father in heaven.
2) Therefore, when you do a charitable deed, do not sound a trumpet before you as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory from men. Assuredly, I say to you, they have their reward.
3) But when you do a charitable deed, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing,
4) that your charitable deed may be in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will Himself reward you openly.

I once knew a man who was a graduate of North Carolina Central University. The same school this stripper attends. One day I saw him trying to cover some papers and I asked what they were, because it looked like he was paying some big money to someone or company. He and I were good friends, so me asking was no big deal. He informed me he had been paying for the full tuition of 1 North Carolina Central University student. (The papers were bills from the school that he was paying directly.) The student was someone the school helped him pick at random. It was something he did just to try and help a kid that otherwise would have a hard time paying for classes. I was very amazed by his charity and asked him why he never told me, given he and I knew each other fairly well. He explained it was not the kind of thing he liked to “put out there”. And that’s how we all should engage in charity. I’m glad I knew him, because he showed me personally that people at North Carolina Central University are not all like this stripper and certainly nothing like Jesse Jackson.

Taxi Driver in Duke Lacrosse So-Called Rape Case Speaks. Blows More Holes in Accuser’s Time Line.
Basically the cab driver says he was called around 12:14AM and picked up Reade Seligmann and his friend about 4 minutes later. Given the photo time line ends at 12:10AM, this means if they raped her before calling for a cab, that the rape took a tota…
