I'm showing very clearly that it is the who for conservatives that matter not the what. Casy Anthony same thing. She killed her own child and yet no conservative anger. Conservatives hate OJ more than her. Why?
You attempting to turn two murder cases into a political issue is sickening. I don't recall anyone standing up with a sign around their neck declaring their political affiliation and pontificating on the issue of guilt or innocence of Blake or Anthony. You're reaching hard for this one and it's really quite stupid. Are you truly so polarized as this? Good lord.

Both spent money yet only when Obama did it was their conservative anger?
No, I mentioned liberals to disprove your point, pathetic though it is.

You are comparing three murderers. One a very glamorous and well-known athlete/celebrity/announcer. The other a minor and largely forgotten celebrity. The last an unknown.

OJ is the more famous, more well known, more notorious case. OJ became a symbol of racial division. Race was introduced as evidence in his trial.

There were hordes of black people dancing and celebrating when OJ beat the rap. Was there anything like that for Blake and Anthony?

Was there?

They made it about race when they put L.A. Detective Mark Fuhrman on the stand.

I thought Sammy Davis Jr's version of the original theme song is one of the best TV theme songs ever created. Was Sammy conservative?

Both OJ and Blake got away with murder.

However Robert Blake was a much better actor.

All I want is for conservatives/teapublicans to admit that they get way more angry at situations depending on the persons race. I have seen it in person. If someone says hey did you hear what happened to OJ in prison? Conservatives get all giddy but those same ones cant muster those feelings for Blake and Anthony. But when you say its a racial feeling that makes them feel that way they deny deny deny. Its crazy because it is so obvious.

Fuhrman is a hero to some conservatives/teapublicans till this very day. They are just beside their selves that anyone would think fuhrman should have made any difference. Also him using the n word should not have mattered at all

That was one of the differences I guess

Oh you have seen it in person! Well, it must be true then!

Normally your posts are just daft, but in a harmless sort of way. They inspire a chuckle, perhaps a roll of the eyes.

But now you have crossed into outright sleazery.

Some advice: Most people of limited knowledge or modest IQs are still smart enough to know their limitations. I encourage you to find yours.

Sammy was a huge Nixon supporter. Now it's all coming into focus...you bet it is....

By the same token, many a night I have lain awake wondering why libs let OJ Simpson off the hook while being so quick to condemn Richard Blake.

Did you rejoice and fall down on your knees praising the Lord when Robert Blake was acquitted?
