Nancy Grace took time away from her dancing stint on Dancing With The Stars to rally the mob in condemning an acquitted person. Grace called the acquittal of Amanda Knox a “miscarriage of justice” despite the few of many (including myself) that the case was riddled by mistakes, false statements by the police or prosecutors, and open speculation. Nevertheless, in Grace’s preference for “sentence first — verdict afterwards,” the Italian jury was the outrage by looking at the evidence and standard of proof.
I have long condemned CNN’s hiring of Grace who was a disgrace as a prosecutor and an embarrassment for the entire bar.
While many of us have voiced our suspicions or condemnations of Knox and her boyfriend, we recognized the appellate decision as a victory of justice for rendering a detached and dispassionate verdict — the very antithesis of the snarling signature of Grace on CNN.
Grace’s reaction to such acquittals is quite predictable and formulaic. Grace is the Madam DeFarge of American justice. She refuses to undo her knitting even in the face of reasonable doubt or compelling evidence. Her snarling, retributive style is the draw for a very sad and very angry portion of our population.
For years, some of us have been casting doubts on the Knox case. Ironically, the Knox prosecutors were accused of the same shoddy and speculative work that often characterized Grace’s own career, who was repeatedly accused of unprofessional and abusive conduct as a state prosecutor before being hired by CNN. She often barks about a travesty of justice. Yet, justice appears synonymous with retribution in her lexicon. The result is that, in Grace’s world, justice itself is a “miscarriage of justice.”
This is why the recent clothing malfunction of Grace on Dancing With the Stars was little surprise to those who already view her CNN program as little more than a legal Burlesque show.

Your first use of the word IDEAL
1, October 6, 2011 at 11:20 am
Junctionshamus,
I am sure at your age that is probably a good ideal.
Jo,
Yes, my strap on serves me well. It is always dependable. You should be so lucky.
Your second use of IDEAL,

Junctionshamus,
Debasing the messenger will gain you nothing.
Jo,
You love Nancy, tell the truth. You will never know when you need her by your side. If you think murder is a good ideal, then she will not be in your corner. I think she is misunderstood, don’t you?
Now the first use can only be read as idea when the word Ideal is used . The second use can be read as meaning IDEAL But after reading your posts and the formations of sentences I do think you meant IDEA and only after rereading your posts and a dictionary you state it was used correctly.
I don’t believe you.
How do you draw from anything I have written that I think murder may be a “Good IDEAL” Or a good IDEA??????
Oh and to read the phrase “Good IDEAL” just doesn’t read right. You don’t have a Good Ideal as it is an Ideal or not an Ideal philosophy’ To use Good Ideal to mean it to be a philosophy isas correct as to say a certain item is “kind of unique”
Also If you put the phrase “Good Ideal” into a google search engine it will say do you mean “Good Idea” And then give you only searches for “Good Ideas”
Nancy Grace I’m sure you have script writers to worry about English usage. You may want to invite them to help you with your posts.
So like I told you before Get a mirror.Now read this but substitute your name for mine.
Jo,
Words of advice for you. May you can learn the proper use of English. If you are going to correct someone, really, make sure what you tell them is correct. It would have been your mistake if I had believed you to start with. Ideal, idea get a dictionary you can reference before posting corrections.
You are just jealous that you are not as well known and respected as Nancy Grace. Sure, you cut down what you do not understand. That is not the way business is done here.

JunctionKreskin, Lmao, My hippo is a snappy dresser doncha think. But My lil’ ole’ toes require weeks of healing after one lil waltz.

Sorry, but I have to work sometimes. I was in court at 8:30 a.m. and arguing my heart out for a nice grandmother who lives in subsudized housing and is being sued for 6 figures. It’s fun defending cases once in a while, especially when you’ve got a good client.
Ugarte: You despise me, don’t you?
Rick Blaine: If I gave you any thought I probably would.
Me: Nancy who?
@Jo – Seems as though NG and Tristan are the compliment to your avatar.
@mespo727272 – Good morning, sir, it’s about damn time you showed up!
Oversleep?
Well, anyway, welcome aboard the SS NancyGrace, sister ship of RMS Titanic. How about some platitudes, for all latitudes. There’ll be no lollygagging on this thread, bucko, now hop to it; time’s a-wastin’.
My best to you!
Oh Jo. Don’t correct anyone’s vocabulary when you can’t spell for sheit. “An Idea is ones idea of perfection.” Should read….”An IDEAL is ones idea of perfection.”
JunctionKreskin, The hubby cheers for the Tarheels and I cheer for Duke.
As for the “Q” I’m still a lil’ further south and we use just red peppers and applecider vinegar. But I have friends in Wilson and Rocky Mount and have pig pickin’s often . And MMMMMMMMMM good. .
Little wonder, with folks like her, that we have 5% of the world’s population and 25% of its prison population.
Nancy, Nancy, Nancy Grace, You keep giving yourself away. A Nancy Grace Fan? Come-on. Really? Only you, Nancy Grace, could think there is such a thing. We all know you are delusional, but does CNN know?
Oh and BTW you keep using the word IDEAL in place of the word IDEA. An Idea is ones idea of perfection. Such as how you see yourself. An IDEA is a thought, such as when that lightbulb goes on over your cartoon head. If you don’t believe me look it up in a dictionary.
I like it better when Nancy does her fancy footwork on the dance floor instead of the courtroom:
Guys, don’t be mean to Nancy. Keep it up and her other viewer will feel the need to put in an appearance.
Nancy Fan,
Go home….where ever that may be…You really believe this spiel….come on…
Nancy Grace is the perfect reincarnation of the small town loudmouth who is always the first to shout, “We don’t need no trial- we’ve got a rope!” She never met anyone accused of a crime who didn’t need a good lynching. And she will be in the front row screaming, “What are you waiting for?!!!”
Who does she think she is, the Governor of Texas?

Nancy Fan (a.k.a. Nancy Grace)-
This isn’t a “womens’ issue”, this is one crazy woman’s issue.
@Jo – GO TARHEELS? Sorry about the directional error – my “Cackalacky-dar” is a bit off this morning. Dad grew up in Tarboro, lived in Rocky Mount. Still have relatives there. And always good “Q” in Wilson. What God intended for the marriage of mustard and apple cider vinegar.

JunctionKreskin, I live in the Eastern part of the state but my foster son graduated from Appalachian State.
Nancy Fan, I would say to see a troll all you need is a mirror. However I think in reality Nancy does a google search on her name every free moment she has and is actually with us as I speak. The give away, Nancy, was the Nom de Net. You never fooled me Nancy. Really a Nancy fan. Who would believe that?????
