Following Casey Anthony on Websleuths

If you want more information, almost on an hourly basis, on the Casey Anthony case, then you may find Websleuths to be a godsend -- or a curse.

Its forums are filled with the latest news, as well as rumors (is Cindy Anthony on the site? what about those crosses from J.C. Penney's?) and there's lots of traffic.

Some of the membership actively track the story on the site each night while watching Nancy Grace ("NG" on the forums)....

It's not the best site for downloading documents or getting video feeds, but it fills a need. Or an obsession.

Polls? What Polls? I Don't Need No Stinkin Polls!

As the election get closer by the hour, I'm seeing more and more polls popping up - and no two are alike.

Well, no one's called and asked me a thing. No one that I've asked has been asked to reveal who they're voting for, either.

And, truth be told, the majority of us would decline to answer any survey on who we're voting for, if we were asked.

Why? I can't speak for other folk, but for me -- who I vote for is not anyone's business. It may be just my vote, but it's what I've got to give, and I take it seriously.

I'm tired of all this spin and media hoopla surrounding the citizenry choosing the person to lead our country, not to mention the most powerful man in the free world (or so they tell me).

It's not like I'm picking Best Picture of the Year at the Academy Awards. Or I suppose I should say, the People's Choice Awards since I'm not a SAG member. Geez.

I wouldn't trust a pollster to use what I reported accurately. Period. And this includes exit polls, too.

They talk about greed running rampant in our society, well - I see dishonest and self-serving spin running rampant, too. And all these polls, polls, polls -- just a buncha hoohaa if you ask me.

You know what? Bottom line, I wouldn't give them the time of day if they called because as a voter, I feel so ... well ... DISRESPECTED.

Whew. I feel better.

I Want To Know Every Tidbit of Truth Here and I Want To Know It NOW

http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2008/oct/12/obamas-kenya-ghosts/

The Washington Times has a story about Kenya - and Muslims killing Christians (women and children) - that is getting some coverage but far from enough for me to be satisfied.

It includes information about Barack Obama that I want to know about RIGHT NOW, and I want all the details, not some pat on the head.

I share the reaction of one of the commenters: this is horrifying.

And, I am sure I also share this attitude with others: I have a good mind and a great ability to think and judge for myself, and I am sick and tired of the Main Stream Media along with countless Hollywood celebrities assuming otherwise.

Just gimme the facts, and shut up.

Was Casey Anthony Working at an Escort Service?

Over at WebSleuths, they've got lots of discussion over the web sites that Casey Anthony surfed -- including a long list of escort sites, from around the country. Nancy Grace's show has shown the list, but I haven't been able to find the actual document in any of the discovery materials available for download.

One post at WebSleuths gives information about the missing children link that's getting a lot of air time -- apparently, the link's name is intentionally misspelled and the link is really a portal to sites that most of us really, really don't want to go visit. If this is the only missing kid link on the website surfing history, then all the talk about premeditation based on Casey Anthony investigating missing children sites on the web goes away.

I've also noticed that no one is clear on how Casey Anthony was making money when she was purportedly "working at Universal." Just last Friday, on Nancy Grace, bounty hunter Leonard Padilla skirted the answer when asked ... although he's always said that there is always a grain of truth in what Casey Anthony says.

So, I'm still wondering -- what was Casey Anthony doing for money during all this time she said she was working? I still think she was going to a job, somewhere - and I think that it will be very relevant to what happened to Caylee.

Of course he is.

You gotta wonder who'll be next to jump on the media bandwagon ... Inside Edition? Oprah? Jerry Springer? 48 Hours?

For a good post on what all this media play means to you and me, check out Dallas criminal defense attorney Mike Lowe's post of September 15th.
