A recap of sorts for those new to Jordan Brown's case

Hi Friends;

As with most things important, there is more to Jordan Brown's case than is easily written. So, forgive me for being a bit lazy and asking you to simply click on the below link to read a synopsis of Jordan's case. You may also click on the blue ribbon to go to Justice4Juveniles and see a more in depth analysis and discussion of the issues.

An Update on Jordan

Hi Friends; I received an update regarding Jordan's case from Melissa at Justice4Juveniles. Please read below...If you click on the blue ribbon, it will take to you the Justice4Juvenile site, where you can learn more about Jordan. Please sign the petition noted below.

Thank you!

Randy,

The Pennsylvania AGs office wants Jordan to admit to the murders if he is to have the case moved from adult court [to juvenile/family court] and Motto won't be ruling or listening to arguments on the matter until August (so it has been further delayed for no apparent reason).

What I've done is created a petition directed at the AGs office. I want to get as many signatures as possible to put pressure on them to move this case along and to refrain from doing things that violate Jordan's constitutional rights (like asking him to admit to a crime he says he did not do - it goes against his right not to self-incriminate).

Would you post a link to the petition and ask people to sign it? Also, would you mind signing it yourself? I plan to work as hard as i can to get signatures and then get this out to the AGs office before August to let them know people know what's going on and they don't like it.

Here's a link:

Thank you again for everything,

... and the wisdom of our leaders?

Hi All;

One of the tenents that I have always believed is that, despite the pundits and cartoonists, our leaders are typically very intelligent. I may not always agree with thier methods or their end goals, but I always figured them to be very intelligent. They'd have to be, right?

Then we get a beauty queen. Until recently, I assumed it was an act. Nope. Anyone who ever puts this lady in charge of more than a Dairy Queen needs to lose their voting rights...at least.

Watch this: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/06/07/colbert-sarah-palin-paul-revere-video_n_872375.html

What was worse, you know, outside of the obvious slanting of history in order to make a current political point about as subtle as a nuclear strike, was the blatant and obscene ignorance and obstinance to stick to the failed rendition of historical facts when interviewed on ....wait for it....Fox news (like you wouldn't have guessed). Even worse was her staffers going on to attempt a change to Wikipedia's Paul Revere page so to reflect Palin's assertion of history.

Either cry or laugh, folks. These are our leaders.....

Another Great Parke

I must admit, I'm rooting for this young man to win. I like the way he simply tells you what he has to say rather than try to be all over the stage.....it seems more heartfelt to me.
