"brainlessly prejudiced".

Temper, temper, little man.

Interesting, Peter.    You describe me as "brainlessly prejudiced" yet you agree with me that nothing establishes US dirty tricks are behind DSK's arrest.   I suppose that makes you a fellow brainless commentator.    Welcome!

Gee, I wonder if your phrase could possibly be due to bitterness from another thread. I suppose we'll never know.

Recent developments also do not establish DSK's innocence, you might possibly note--only that his accuser has credibility problems.   But whatever it takes to get DSK off, right?
We'll see how it goes from here.    I wouldn't wager on any particular outcome--but as I said earlier, it may well depend on if the maid is willing to give detailed testimony in court.

Irony on irony. I am defending a powerless woman against a powerful man.   That might well be the typical leftist position. Guess that makes me a bleeding heart pinko leftist--truly a strange sensation--and those on the other side heartless capitalist reactionaries. Or maybe running dog imperialists---or whatever jargon you care to use.

I'm sure you have your favorites.
