'I agree that Dominque Strauss-Kahn, the former head of the International Monetary Fund is a scumbag, politically and probably personally as well.

However, in terms of the recent charges against him, the worst thing he may be guilty of is not choosing the right escort agency.

The New York Post has the story here: Maid cleaning up as ‘hooker’

For me the case gave off a stench that even the greenest rookie detective could smell. I know through my years as a detective and security consultant to a top hotel chain, that that big red “S” does not stand for “Sheraton”, (rather a more familiar three-letter word starting with “S” and ending with “x”) and hotels and hookers go together like coffee and cigarettes, usually with red lipstick found on the butts.

On this Independence Day week-end here in the US, many feminists would still have us believe that the Founding Fathers of the United States were simply "privileged oppressor white males" who decided paying taxes was too much to bear and for this reason started a hugely-destructive war all so they could live in continued comfort but without paying taxes. The truth is much different. Their reasons were laid out in the Declaration of Independence, so if anyone bothers to read it, they can find the reasons there. Now what happened to the Founding Fathers after the war started, that is another matter. Most people have no idea.

Article here. No mention of other factors, such as fear of divorce. Excerpt:

'Considering the state of the economy, it should come as no surprise that the ranks of the child-free are exploding. The Department of Agriculture reports that the average cost for a middle-income two-parent family to support a kid through high school is $286,050 (it's nearly half a million dollars for couples in higher tax brackets). ... Unless you're among the less than 2 percent of Americans who farm for a living and might conceivably rely on offspring for free labor, children have gone from being an economic asset to an economic liability.

Article here. A male celebrity making 'humorous' comments about savagely mutilating a woman would soon find himself persona non grata. I LOATHE the way certain women seem to think that male genitals are virtually disposable! To be destroyed at a whim. They seem to think that emasculation is no big deal. Excerpt:

'Sharon Osbourne would 'chop' Arnold Schwarzenegger's penis off if he were her husband.

The 58-year-old TV star has claimed the former Governor of California ' who fathered a son with his employee Mildred Baena 13 years ago, despite being married to Maria Shriver ' should be more respectful to his family and says she would have removed his manhood and forced Mildred to clean it up.
...
"I would have chopped his willy (penis) off. Arnie's willy would have been down the disposal unit spinning around, that's where it'd be - and I'd make her clean it up. That mop would have been wrapped around her head."'

Link here. Excerpt:

'The fiancée of a wealthy UK lawyer did not tell his family he had died of a heart attack, because she claimed he had wanted to keep his death secret, a court has heard.

The family of Owen Davies, 45, went four months without knowing he had died in Paris after his Belgian fiancée Natalie de Vleeschauwer allegedly gave them the impression he was still alive, the Daily Mail reported.

"Not this year. There’s a problem. I will explain later," a message sent from Mr Davies' phone replied.
...
Ms de Vleeschauwer has also refused to disclose the location of Mr Davies' ashes.'

Article here. So does he get his old job back? Does he get his chance at becoming the president of France again? No and no. Another man destroyed by false allegations. Wonder if the many feminists and their supporters will now write mea culpa columns to go with their attack-writings of the not-so-recent past. Answer again is: No. And the new head of the IMF quipped that it is better that a woman be in such a position because women "make better leaders". Well we know for sure of one woman who doesn't make a very good liar: that is the false accuser in this case. Excerpt:

'The sexual assault case against Dominique Strauss-Kahn is on the verge of collapse as investigators have uncovered major holes in the credibility of the housekeeper who charged that he attacked her in his Manhattan hotel suite in May, according to two well-placed law enforcement officials.

Although forensic tests found unambiguous evidence of a sexual encounter between Mr. Strauss-Kahn, a French politician, and the woman, prosecutors do not believe much of what the accuser has told them about the circumstances or about herself.

Story here. Excerpt:

'TWO English schoolgirls, along with their mother, brother and his girlfriend have been accused of using bricks to kill their granddad to get their inheritance early. The Daily Mail reported that they allegedly searched the Internet for 'the easiest way to kill an old person.'

The sisters aged 14 and 15, their 48-year-old mother, 18-year-old brother and also his 16-year-old girlfriend. Their 89-year-old granddad was suffering from dementia.
...
The jury was told that the 89-year-old man had given his adopted daughter lavish gifts, including a car, in the months leading up to the attack but that she was not prepared to wait for her inheritance

So, when he stepped outside he was set upon by his grandson and then hit by his granddaughters who were 'armed with bricks' in plastic bags. After the alleged attack, one of the granddaughters phoned 999 and said the pensioner had slipped and fallen.'

Article here. Excerpt:

'Personal stories told with passion are the mark of fathers who decry the role the legal system has played in their families’ lives.

Fathers’ rights activists make headlines from time to time. Their actions can be silly, as in the case of British activists who periodically dress as comic book superheroes and scale public buildings. Or, they can be tragic, as in Thomas J. Ball’s recent public suicide outside the Cheshire County Court House in Keene.
...
Peter G. Hill, a spokesman for the Massachusetts Fatherhood Coalition, lays out his group’s legislative agenda: shared custody laws, stricter requirements for issuing restraining orders, and reform to child support policies that can land cash-strapped fathers in jail.
...
In 2002, New Hampshire established its Commission on the Status of Men, the only panel of its kind in the country.

Story here. Excerpt:

'CHICAGO - A CHICAGO woman is accused of strapping her baby's corpse into a sling and taking him shopping after killing the three-month old in a drunken rage, local media reported on Wednesday.

Ken Blackman Jr had been dead for eight to 14 hours when the woman wrapped up her shopping trip and went to visit a neighbour, who noticed blood on the baby blanket and called 911.

Prosecutors told the Chicago Sun Times that Toyrianna Smith, 20, beat and suffocated her baby because he wouldn't stop crying on June 22.'

Article here. This is why I don't subscribe to Time magazine. How utterly stupid. This inane anti-male bigotry seems to have no end in the liberal mainstream media. Excerpt:

'Recently in the Wall Street Journal, MarketWatch columnist David Weidner noted that women "do almost everything better" than men — from politics to corporate management to investing.

Weidner cites a new study by Barclays Wealth and Ledbury Research, which found that women were more likely than men to make money in the market, mostly because they didn't take as many risks. And why are they risk-averse? Because they're not as overconfident as men, the study found.'

Article here. I am not saying that the verdict was wrong. The point of this post is that there was once a time people complained vehemently at the lack of women in juries because any woman put on trial would undoubtedly have a gender bias against her since all or most of the jurors were men. In this case, a man faced 11 women and one man. Why didn't the attorneys take the oft-heard principle that juries should be representative of the population of eligible jurors in mind when choosing this jury? They could not find five more men to be seated as jurors in this trial? Excerpt:

'This time, there was no holdout juror.

It may have taken parts of 10 days to talk through the counts, but a federal jury of 11 women and one man on Monday overwhelmingly convicted former Gov. Rod Blagojevich.

In the end, they found him guilty on 17 out of 20 counts, including fraud, extortion and bribery.

One juror who wanted to acquit the ex-governor said she couldn’t ignore the mountain of evidence facing him.'

Article here. Excerpt:

'According to Whitmire, children are forced to use literacy skills much earlier than in the past, and boys develop these skills later than girls. In the world of "Kindergarten is the new first grade," boys are struggling mightily to keep up. When it comes to writing, the gender divide is even greater. NCLB and our hyper-focus on standardized test scores is worsening, not ameliorating, the academic struggles of boys, and subsequently increasing the numbers of boys who turn off to school and eventually drop out.

According to Gurian, boys learn by doing and by moving their bodies through space. The more emphasis is placed on the development of early reading skills, and the less emphasis is placed on a healthy amount of movement and experiential learning, the more disadvantageous our schools will be for males.'

Story here. Excerpt:

'Norwalk Police arrested a 20-year-old woman on a warrant Monday for falsely accusing two city men of violently raping her.

Brittany Reith, of 7 Commerce St., was charged with falsely reporting an incident concerning serious injury or death and making a false statement. She was held on $5,000 bond and given a court date of July 8.

Reith made a sworn, written statement to police after showing up more than 12 hours late to the apartment that she shares with her boyfriend and telling him that she'd been kidnapped by three men, held against her will and repeatedly raped, according to court documents.

As a result of Reith's statement, patrol officers arrested two men -- Anthony Lee and Joseph Gay -- on April 7 for felony sexual assault and battery charges. Lee, a former standout Norwalk High School basketball player, had no criminal record. Gay had prior drug dealing convictions, but police never arrested him for a violent crime.'

Article here. Is Bristol Palin engaging in parental alienation? Her claim that her virginity was 'stolen' is obviously unsubstantiated and Levi Johnston is entitled to his side of the story. It seems as if he's not getting the benefit of the doubt and as a result is being punished by losing time with his child. Excerpt:

'When her mother, Sarah Palin, was thrust into the spotlight as John McCain's vice presidential candidate, Bristol Palin had to come out with a secret, that she was about to be a teen mom. Now she's revealed her whole story in her book, "Not Afraid of Life," and there are plenty of surprises.

Bristol Palin doesn't accuse the father of her baby, Levi Johnston, of date rape, but does say she felt her virginity was stolen. She was drunk and to her, that's how it felt.

Reference Swedish School Takes Gender Equality Too Far For Little Kids

If you think this is bad, what do you think about favoring the girls at school by giving them cream buns (semla) while the boys are having crispbread (knäckebröd) to celebrate the International Women´s Day?
