My Thought Process for the Morning
Here’s a peek into my head this morning as I open the computer:
Oh look at this. BuzzFeed News says Roger Stone posted a picture of his judge next to a crosshairs symbol! Click.
Um yeah that’s not what he did. It’s just a picture of her in front of an organization’s logo. This is about as valid a complaint as that Sarah Palin stuff. That said it’s a stupid move by Stone to criticize his judge. And he has threatened people before. Is it worth doing a post about? Hey I know I’ll just do a post about how I thought about doing a post about it because the media bias is so extraordinary, but found I didn’t really care because the guy involved is so sordid, and I’ll post it as a stream of consciousness and wow that’s lame OK gotta go to work sigh publish
You know, some people just deserve to be railroaded.

Munroe (9dcbfb) — 2/19/2019 @ 8:17 amWhen I get depressed about the state of politics, I try to imagine what people I would prefer to see representing Team R and Team D.
Things have gotten so darned weird.
Simon Jester (c8876d) — 2/19/2019 @ 8:18 amI am comforted when I hear K-toe Harris say that she doesn’t “vilify success”…
Colonel Haiku (273e2b) — 2/19/2019 @ 8:42 amHe’s been a master political operative for decades, and his words and acts have been deliberate. I don’t believe him when he said it was just a random photo from the Internet. He doesn’t appear to believe his own words either, not after he apologized to the court, not for the photograph, but for the “improper photograph and comment posted on Instagram”. I don’t believe that Stone makes innocent mistakes in the political arena.
Paul Montagu (0eb929) — 2/19/2019 @ 8:47 amThat’s the most ridiculous headline reference to “gun violence” I’ve ever read.
Buzzfeed is really going all in before they fold, aren’t they?
Patricia (3363ec) — 2/19/2019 @ 9:05 am“Master political operative” like Plame was a deep cover agent… get real, my good man…
Colonel Haiku (273e2b) — 2/19/2019 @ 9:14 am(a) the “he posted a picture of her with a target” story is silly.
(b) but posting it all appears to have violated a gag order, and the judge is not having it:
> https://twitter.com/NatashaBertrand/status/1097880949935800320
(c) but maybe the goal is to get the judge to overreact and thereby convince his fans (and Trump’s) that she’s biased and no fair trial can be had?
his job has long involved manipulating the media for political purposes, and presumably he’s good at it or he wouldn’t have kept it.
aphrael (3f0569) — 2/19/2019 @ 9:25 amIt’s more like lifelong nutjob. Crosshairs or White Supremaacist Celtic Cross is irrelevant. The republishing of the judge’s photo, in reference to his case, is the hostile act. Telling his loonie fans “That’s her!” with an implied “Sic ‘her!”.
nk (dbc370) — 2/19/2019 @ 9:25 amImagine looking into your head and seeing Buzzfeed.
As to the extraordinary yet obvious media bias…..the B Bee nails it again:

nk (dbc370) — 2/19/2019 @ 9:33 amnk, crosshairs next to a person kind of suggests a miss, doesn’t it?
Simon Jester (c8876d) — 2/19/2019 @ 9:46 amI take it as a Celtic Cross sending the message to the nutjobs that Stone is one of their own.
nk (dbc370) — 2/19/2019 @ 10:03 amOh, noes… I was just triggered without a warning. Damn your eyes, Simon Jester!
Colonel Haiku (273e2b) — 2/19/2019 @ 10:04 amSeems like he is building a case for an insanity defense.

Kevin M (21ca15) — 2/19/2019 @ 10:43 amI kind of think I would go out of my way to avoid pissing of my judge. Is this some weird attempt to disqualify her?
Kevin M (21ca15) — 2/19/2019 @ 10:44 amleave it to Buzzfeed to make Roger Stone seem sympathetic.

Tillman (61f3c8) — 2/19/2019 @ 11:59 am21… par for the course, narciso…
Colonel Haiku (273e2b) — 2/19/2019 @ 12:02 pmAs a general rule, pissing on a judge’s flowerpot is NOT a good strategy.
Colonel Haiku (273e2b) — 2/19/2019 @ 12:03 pmStone is unbelievably stupid. But I bet he won’t be going around flashing Nixon peace signs in prison – at least not more than once.
Tillman (61f3c8) — 2/19/2019 @ 12:04 pm> Is this some weird attempt to disqualify her?
or lay the political foundation for a pardon on the grounds that the judge was *obviously* biased.
aphrael (e0cdc9) — 2/19/2019 @ 12:17 pmAnd this was the only image of the judge the web-savvy Stone cold source? And if the organization’s ‘logo’ had been, say, a swastika, or the Trump Organization instead?
The intent appears clear; the ‘apology’ contrived; the attention gotten, message told, bell rung. The judge cannot un-ring it; but she’ll likely send a message of her own to him soon: by ringing his neck to a gag– legally, of course.

harkin (b5e7fd) — 2/19/2019 @ 12:28 pmThis? I thought this was very old news already. I thought they CGI’d him into the opposition’s army for a Clint Eastwood-like film showing the other side’s POV.
urbanleftbehind (5eecdb) — 2/19/2019 @ 12:33 pmEverything is irrelevant until it has to do with the oppressed liberal judge or any self oppressed lawyer.
mg (8cbc69) — 2/19/2019 @ 12:39 pmThere’s’ a lot of The Big Dick in Stone.
On him, too.
DCSCA (797bc0) — 2/19/2019 @ 12:47 pmyou forgot to add “…and then there is this tattoo”
urbanleftbehind (5eecdb) — 2/19/2019 @ 1:13 pman American ambassador, two former spec operators, and one tech, were assaulted by al queda, despite numerous requests for assistance, and judge Jackson, is blind to that, I think that’s a higher burden on her part, than anything stone did, as part of opposition research,
narciso (d1f714) — 2/19/2019 @ 1:42 pmDumb and Dumber: So let’s sell nuclear secrets to the country that brought us 9/11 !! What could possibly go wrong? (Flashes Nixon peace signs.)
Tillman (61f3c8) — 2/19/2019 @ 1:48 pmStill more careful consideration in your production process than most MSM pieces these days, Mr. P.

Narciso (bbe94c) — 2/19/2019 @ 2:12 pm@27. The intent appears clear; regardless of whether it is an original or photoshopped/manipulated image, look how it is cropped; off-centered, to include that “logo.” It’s unbalanced, like Roger-dodger-over-and-out.

why don’t they take him in for questioning, how does he deign not to show up, remember manafort had testified the day before they ramsacked his house, stone was treated like the fall guy for Benghazi, I know rhetorical,

DCSCA (797bc0) — 2/21/2019 @ 12:57 pmThe judge slapped “Peace sign” Stone with a wet noodle.
Tillman (61f3c8) — 2/21/2019 @ 1:37 pmBut it ain’t over.
Neither the right to a reasonable bail pending trial, nor the right to a public trial, nor First Amendment freedom of speech, depend on the judge’s discretion. The judge will just have to make sure he’s convicted and then she can give it to him at sentencing.
nk (dbc370) — 2/21/2019 @ 2:09 pmThe judge says this is not baseball, and said she gave him a second chance, but she won’t give him a third.
But in baseball, after three strikes, YOU’RE OUT!
This is the same rule as baseball, not a different one..
Sammy Finkelman (b0ece0) — 2/21/2019 @ 7:22 pmRoger Stone claimed he couldn’t remmeber (or was it didn’t know) where he got the picture. The judge said something like: “You couldn’t find another one?”
Sammy Finkelman (b0ece0) — 2/21/2019 @ 7:24 pmGreat timing, Stone! With monsters like this lurking around, putting a cross-hairs next to a judge’s head is no laughing matter:
