CNN spends half hour going on about Chandra Levy.....
it's still going on showing videos, interviews, photos. Yet, the person they say is going to be charged with her death hasn't been charged, yet. So, why don't they wait until the person IS charged?

Last time we had Chandra on 24/7, Bush/Cheney had gotten that "MEMO" about a suspected Terrorist attack. I doubt there's a correlation this time ...but what the heck are they covering up this weekend by "jumping the gun" on Chadra 24/7 when many people don't really care anymore.

:shrug:

4. ..It is awful memories.. of OKC Bombing and the beginning of the end..
.. if I remember correctly... (and it's been a long time) .. Chandra Levy was an Intern at the Bureau of Prisons (BOP), while she was Boffing Congress critter Gary CONdit.

Allegedly, she had pulled Timothy McVie's file while she worked at the BOP, and she was going to go public with some information that countered the "official" version of the OKC bombing.

She ended up dead.

Did they ever find her body?

This was all covered up in the media.. and quickly faded away. However, there were MANY questions about McVie and what really happened at OKC? Many believed that this was a practice run for 911...

Whatever... the story pales compared to the Bush crimes that followed and today's economic melt-down.

14. Yes...thanks for remembering the angles of that story. They found her skeleton a year later...
in the park. The rest of us just sort of went unanswered. What did she know..... why?

Who knows. So much criminality in the last Decade or more...it's hard to keep it all straight in priority of order.

8. Truly ...terrible Memories...the Summer of Chandra followed up by "9/11"
I have never gotten over it...but realize there are DU'ers here who probably don't remember. I posted so that those who didn't remember would know there was something bad going on when the news all SUMMER before the September 11th Attack were ALL ABOUT CHANDRA...Whenever they do Chandra or latest White Woman or Child missing or abused that they are COVERING UP for SOMETHING ELSE...

I guess it's just "conditioning" that I'm fighting against. :-(

5. The MSM loves having dead white girls to talk about
So they don't have to report the news. Remember Natalie Holloway? I never thought they'd stop talking about her.

7. So was the suspect, Ingmar Guandique a laborer from El Salvador...
Here legally or illegally at the time of Chandra Levy's disappearance and murder?

Sure, he's legally incarcerated now, for previous attacks on women in the same area at the very same time, but was he here illegally at the time? 'Poor honest hard working man, just trying to feed his family back home.' :puke:

All you Amnesty and Open Border people feel free to speak up, since it provided SO MUCH ammunition for the Republicans back then. Come on now, flame away.
:yoiks:

:popcorn:

10. But...C-Span keeps saying..."No one has been charged, yet" So what's the Big Hoo Haw that
they need to role out all that old Chadra, Chandra stuff. Even getting Gary Condit to give a STATMENT, FGS..when so far NO ONE HAS BEEN CHARGED?

What are they NOT REPORTING ON...that they spend all their time on this VERY OLD STORY...whith only "heresay" as the perpetrator of the crime and they guy hasn't even been indicted..(since he's already in prison) Why is this WORTH all this AIR TIME? :shrug:

What are they NOT reporting on to do this SHILL STUFF? :shrug:

11. I'm not interested in the story, I just want the Amnesty and Open Border people...
To answer whether this laborer from El Salvador, who is in prison now for attacking women in the same area at the same time, was a legal or illegal immigrant.

They just have to uphold the image that this guy was an 'honest hard working man trying to support his family back home.'

I find it very odd that the Amnesty and Open Border crowd isn't rushing in to flame away. I guess the bad taste of how the Republicans used it against the Democrats still tastes too bad for them.

13. Nope. I just want them to say he was here legally.
I think, Hell no!

Of all the rhetoric the Amnesty and Open Boarders crowd has spewed, this laborer from El Salvador just may have given the Republican Party a weapon to use against the Democratic Party in 2000. And they supported and protected this guy, and others who followed and follow in his footsteps.

Oh, the irony for the Amnesty and Open Boarders crowd is priceless... This guy may have (only a suspect, even though he is in prison for doing the same thing to others at the same place and time) destroyed a Democratic Congressman's career and the further harm it caused the Democratic Party.... The Republican parroting B.S.
