Rick, yours was the suutra, the pith of what we were both saying. When I get a new criminal case, I always start framing the theory of the case and the 'theme' to use for the jury to evaluate all the evidence they'll hear. For instance, "This is a case of self defense" would be the theory and the theme might be "[Defendant's name here] was just a guy grabbing a beer after work on a Friday night when he was attacked by the drunken troublemaker, [name of victim here], who has a criminal record of violence".
Like political rhetoric, you're always looking for the velcro meme. ** --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, "Rick Archer" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > From: FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > On Behalf Of Marek Reavis > Sent: Saturday, February 02, 2008 12:27 PM > To: FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com > Subject: [FairfieldLife] Re: If Obama gets the nod ---- (Ann Coulter: I'll > campaign for Hillary) > > > > Rick, I had to laugh when I read your reply to Edg (below).
