How Dumb Can A Republican Prosecutor Be?

A Mississippian refuses to let Mary Beth Buchanan be the uncontested answer to that question.

Bram Reichbaum said...: Hey! It's almost October, and Mary Beth Buchanan is still around!

Fancy that.; September 29, 2009 at 8:07 PM
Infinonymous said...: I believe Cliff Levine's (eventual) decision not to take the job complicated the process.

I also believe the current Department of Justice has Mary Beth Buchanan on about a three-inch leash (which, of course, could have been a handy plot for an Extreme Associates production).; September 29, 2009 at 8:20 PM
MH said...: I walked right by Cheech and his lawyer giving a post-trial talk. I couldn't figure out who he was or why the news was there until I saw the report.; September 29, 2009 at 9:02 PM
Anonymous said...: Last I heard at the court house is that Buchanan is going to be out in the next month. They kept her around since her term did not expire until the end of September and changing horses right before the G20 would be foolish.

Nice to see Bram Reichbaum is still carrying water for Buchanan. I always love someone such as Bram talking about how great Buchanan is and then in the same paragraph saying he is not a lawyer and does not understand the practice of law. Hmmm....; October 2, 2009 at 12:20 AM
Infinonymous said...: If Bram has been carrying water for Mary Beth Buchanan, I missed it.; October 3, 2009 at 9:18 AM
Infinonymous said...: Bram: If you have been carrying water for Mary Beth Buchanan, take that pail and pour its contents over your head.; October 3, 2009 at 9:19 AM
Bram Reichbaum said...: Anon 12:20 AM must be referring to this old post:

http://pghcomet.blogspot.com/2009/03/mary-beth-buchanan-still-there-and-im.html

Still #3 on the Google worldwide, right after her Wikipedia entry and usdoj.gov!

What can I say -- I find a lot of the public opposition to her to be ugly, unseemly, sexist, and beyond anything else more bitterly and CYNICALLY partisan than she dreamed of being. I don't think it takes a lawyer to apprehend that. Read the post to see where I'm coming from.; October 4, 2009 at 1:27 AM
Infinonymous said...: A discussion with some good lawyers would likely change your mind, Bram.; October 4, 2009 at 1:47 PM

PROPOSITIONS TERMS
****************
Wagers accepted while proposition posted (until removed); dds may be revised at any time without advance notice; no winner paid without ticket; all bets are action upon acceptance by management. 10% commission deducted from successful wagers
PROPOSITIONS POINTERS
The number expressed after a proposition identifies the line, or ratio by which wagers for that proposition would be paid upon occurrence of the proposed event. A line of 2-1 indicates that a dollar successfully wagered would generate a $2 winning (with return of the $1 wagered, for an aggregate payment of $3). A line of 1-1 indicates that a dollar successfully wagered would generate a $1 winning (with return of the $1 wagered, for an aggregate payment of $2). A line of 3-5 indicates that a successful $5 wager would generate a $3 winning (and aggregate payment of $8). The greater the ratio the first number bears to the second, the less likely the proposed event is expected to occur.)
Examples:
99-1 extreme odds; remote probability
15-2 high odds; low probability
1-1 even odds; 50-50 probability
2-15 low odds; high probability
1-99 extreme odds; overwhelming probability
