An open letter to New York City Councilman Allan Jennings (D-Jamaica) on the beginning of the City Council ethics committee hearings into allegations by five female staffers that he made unwanted sexual advances toward them:
Dear Councilman Jennings,
Please fire your legal counsel now.
Sincerely,
Stunned, Baffled and Sincerely Pissed Off in Astoria, Queens
Yikes! Was this guy a lawyer for Governor Gropenfuhrer?
HOLY CRIPE! You know just when I think that I am as skeptical and cynical about the human race as I am ever going to be something truly revolting comes along and reveals exactly how optimistic I really am.
If he wins, I’m moving to Canada.
I like the argument that he couldn’t possibly be guilty because he was once a mortgage banker.
He and his lawyer should be had up on additional charges for that defense.
Are these guys for real???? It’s ridiculous that this type of behavior happens.
Ahhh, yes. The famed “Howlin’ Wolf” defense. It’s a tamed-down version of the Butt Ugly(tm) defense which is sometimes used to avoid paying royalties on the original.
Oh man, oh man. This guy is an inspiration to those of us who worship at the alter of testosterone. Living proof that one’s balls can grow so big as to completely displace one’s brain. Awe inspriring, really.
As soon as I stop laughing thinking about the fact that here in the year 2004, someone who could pass the NY bar actually said that to a reporter, then I promise I’ll be outraged with you.
Oh, my.
“These allegations are absurd. Some of these people couldn’t attract a howling wolf in the middle of a wilderness. I mean, come on.”
Huh?
Perhaps they needed to hang a pork chop around their necks to get their dogs to come to them.
Is this the Rodney Dangerfield defense? Is this guy for real? Does he get paid for his quality legal advice?
I was so distracted I forgot to say, so you can now join me in a chorus of my favorite student response “That ain’t right.”
All right! It wasn’t just me! Righteous indignation is alive and well! (’mouse, I’ll interpret that as your own brand of righteous indignation.
Let us all join bunni in a rousing chorus of “That ain’t right!”
I’m right there with you all. It ain’t right!
