An Inebriated Donte Stallworth Hit & Killed A Pedestrian!


Donte Stallworth was drunk when he hit & killed a man that was walking across a Miami highway!Why don't these rich ass people hire drivers when they want to drink & travel? Then,you can get as plastered as your heart desires!

When you are behind the wheel,other people's lives should be greatly considered.Being in a distorted state of mind is not an option!If you are not rich,you can hire a cab to drive you!Do not drive while you are under the influence of anything.There is no reason for it!

Here's more on Donte Stallworth from The Miami Herald:

"Cleveland Browns wide receiver Donte' Stallworth was driving drunk -- blood alcohol tests showed he was over the legal limit -- last weekend when he struck and killed a pedestrian with his Bentley in Miami Beach, a source with knowledge of the investigation told The Miami Herald.

Miami Beach police would not confirm Stallworth had a blood alcohol above the legal limit.

''We have not released anything regarding the blood work,'' said Jenny Velazquez, a Miami Beach police spokeswoman. ``We're not confirming anything.''

WSVN-Fox 7 reported Thursday afternoon that Stallworth's blood alcohol level was .12. The legal limit is .08.

No charges have been filed against Stallworth, 28, who is seen on a video obtained by The Herald being given a sobriety test by two Miami Beach police officers."(END OF EXCERPT)Read the rest here.

I Think Naming The AIG Execs Who Received Those Bonuses Is Just Flat Out Wrong! And It's Dangerous!



What's going on here?!! I understand the anger towards AIG,but naming names is not the way to go.Have we forgotten that there are folks who might lay a bomb at the doorstep of an AIG exec who got a bonus? How would those who revealed the identity of these executives feel if they got murdered as a result of their insensitive actions? Here's an excerpt from an article from the NY Post that names the culprits:

"In the eyes of the public, corporate greed has some new poster boys, and they live and work in Fairfield County.

As American International Group Inc.'s Chief Executive Officer and Chairman Edward Liddy told Congress on Wednesday, he would urge his top executives to give back bonuses awarded to managers of a company that has received $170 billion in taxpayer funds to stay afloat. James Haas and Doug Poling, of Fairfield, and New Canaan resident Jonathan Liebergall were identified by the New York Post as recipients of the highly criticized bonuses.

In all, AIG is believed to have obligated $165 million for bonuses to retain top managers overseeing the closure and breaking up of the massive insurance company.

The three Connecticut men work for AIG's Financial Products division in Wilton. That group entangled its parent company in a massive web of credit default swaps -- a kind of insurance policy covering debt -- that put AIG on the hook for billions of dollars when mortgage securities and other investments went bad.

"All of this is the government's fault -- completely," said a former neighbor of Haas' who asked not to be identified. "I blame them."

Finding supporters of the titans of AIG Financial Products' division is hard. Finding anybody Wednesday to talk about Haas, Poling and Liebergall in their neighborhoods proved impossible.

No one answered the door at any of their homes, well-appointed, large Colonials with clapboard exteriors and mansard roofs and manicured lawns. Haas' Sasco Hill Road mansion overlooks a private golf course and a creek that flows into Long Island Sound, while Poling's Golden Pond Lane property contains a private pond."(END OF EXCERPT)Read the rest here.


Yes,these people should pay back these bonuses.That can be done without telling the crazies out there who they are & where they live! Really,I think that we have a bigger problem here. And that's the fact that all of this greed was allowed to go on in the first place.All of these politicians who are complaining about it now are just trying to save their own ass!

Let's expose the hypocrisy in Washington as well as the AIG execs who received bonuses.These people are just feigning anger for political gain.We live in a capitalist society.Are you really shocked that so much greed exists within in it?

I'm not!It just angers me that there are so many ties between Washington & Wall Street.Of course politicians are looking the other way.They are the enablers of greed because they are greedy themselves.In the end,it's all about money!

Here's more on the politicians who got paid by AIG from OpenSecrets:

"As long as everyone's talking today about AIG's payouts to its executives and foreign banks, let's remember the payouts AIG has made over the years to politicians. In the last 20 years American International Group (AIG) has contributed more than $9 million to federal candidates and parties through PAC and individual contributions. That's enough to rank AIG on OpenSecrets.org's Heavy Hitters list, which profiles the top 100 contributors of all time.

Over time, AIG hasn't shown an especially partisan streak, splitting evenly the $9.3 million it has contributed since 1989. In the last election cycle, though, 68 percent of contributions associated with the company went to Democrats. Two senators who chair committees charged with overseeing AIG and the insurance industry, Sen. Chris Dodd (D-Conn.) and Sen. Max Baucus (D-Mont.), are among the top recipients of AIG contributions. Baucus chairs the Senate Finance Committee and has collected more money from AIG in his congressional career than from any other company--$91,000. And with more than $280,000, AIG has been the fourth largest contributor to Dodd, who chairs the Senate's banking committee. President Obama and his rival in last year's election, Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.), are also high on the list of top recipients."(END OF EXCERPT)Read the rest here.

I Know The Conn. Teacher That Made A 5-yr. Old Eat Garbage Will Be Terminated!

A Conn. teacher made a 5-yr. old retrieve the lunch that he had thrown in the garbage & eat it.Talk about teaching kids not to be wasteful!This 67-yr. old bat must be losing her grip with reality because that is absolutely insane!She is on medical leave right now.I think it's about time for her to retire because she is obviously at her wits end!Here's more from The ConnPost.com:

"A kindergarten teacher arrested after police said she made a student eat food thrown in a garbage can will be out of the classroom on medical leave for the rest of the week while school officials conduct an internal investigation, Supt. of Schools John Ramos said Wednesday.

"The teacher went into the garbage can and took the banana out of garbage can and requested that the student eat it. That's the extent of it," Ramos said, speaking before a crowd of reporters in his office. "Not to make light of it, but I think the story has taken on other ramifications."

Anne O'Donnell, 67, of Rockland Road in Fairfield, a teacher at Park City Magnet School, was arrested Tuesday on a charge of risk of injury to a minor, according to police Capt. Lynn Kerwin. Released on a promise to appear in Superior Court, she is scheduled to be arraigned Monday.

Ramos said he regrets the incident, adding: "This is not typical of what goes on in Bridgeport public schools."

Police said the charges were filed after an incident last Thursday when the 5-year-old boy apparently tossed out his lunch of chicken nuggets and a banana from the school cafeteria. The teacher then allegedly went over to the garbage can, pulled out the food and forced the boy to eat it in front of her.

But Ramos said the teacher explained she was concerned the student had not eaten his lunch and asked that he eat the banana. Officials would not explain why the 5-year-old was eating lunch in the classroom instead of the cafeteria."(END OF EXCERPT)Read the rest here.
