Name: McNasty
Comment: That rethuglican is helping himself - down the road a piece he's gonna ask for repayment.

Name: golfebj
Comment: McNasty, I'm sure when he needs to say, "I've got a black constituency." Out pops Mr. Austin and some other ATLiens for good measure.

Comment: Talk about deja vu and payback. I was thrown in jail in 1970 for demonstrating against Brigham Young University when they played Colorado State University. BYU, a Mormon school, had doctrine that Black folks had no souls and could never enter heaven. I like to think that my jail time helped Mormons change that stupid theology. Also, Black Panther leader Eldridge Cleaver was a Mormon before he died and I THINK Gladys Knight is a Mormon. Orrin Hatch wrote a song for one of her albums. When we traveled to BYU to play basketball, we couldn't bring coffee, caffeine soda and other things on campus. Mormons are zillionaires and don't need nobody's money.

Name: MOTHERSHIP
Comment: Hey, Fanteeking, my dude! Hey, you know that the Mormons has an extensive record of our history here in the US, slave records, land holdings, the whole nine!

Name: EdnaMae
Comment: I wonder if good old Orrin will be there the next time this small time druggie is busted? Sorry, I for one have not one shred of sympathy for anyone who abuses drugs, throw his behind in jail for 25 years, rich or not.

Name: EdnaMae
Comment: >>Fanteeking, they still say it in hused tones, it was more towards black men than women, which is one of the reasons I guess Gladys Knight is in thier faith now. She is also a big time buddy of Hatch and they have done some records today. It is a odd faith when you read it, and thier disdain for blacks wasn't there in the start, it happened over time, and they have a off shoot cult that still does the polygamy thing, and when they kick the boys out, theyhave to deal with the real world, and seem to have a major problem using the "n-word" too freely when dealing with blacks and have had quite a few beatdowns for doing so!

Name: clotel
Comment: Must be nice to have the right lawyers in place to make a call to a Senator like Orrin Hatch. And people swear the justice system is fair.....yeah right !!!! I know the average Joe would NEVER receive such fairness. Must be nice being wealthy and heavily connected. One can continue to f*%$ up all in the name of money and power.

Comment: wtf they gets their welfare too dont sleep on them

Name: DoctorSmooth
Comment: I'm so disgusted by this. Just proves that , wherever you go, there's one justice system for the rich, and anoherone for everybody else. Orrin Hatch should be ashamed for himself for using his influence to help out this small time drug user/abuser.

Name: Priceless
Comment: sooo maybe the attorney will provide free legal advice to Orin for some unspecified period of time for this favor cuz I know this mofo could care less about Dallas Austin

Name: iclaudius
Comment: fanteeking, that is a very interesting story. Perhaps your jail time did help change their theology.

Name: SpelmanRho
Comment: What the....? Orin Hatch....? ... On a plane...rescuing Dallas Austin... in church together that Sunday....? I'm soooooooooo confused !

Name: musbdherbs
Comment: When you know people in the right places...this "is" and what "should" happen. Go head Dallas cuz I ain't mad at cha!

Name: fanteeking
Comment: Hey Edna Mae. Lemmee tell ya. The Mormons used to come past my dorm when I was a freshman at Colordado State Unive. and I ALWAYS noticed that they would NEVER let you sit next to a WHITE mormon female. There had to be a Mormon male between you and the white woman. I lived in Green Hall and if any of the posters out there went to CSU during this time they know who I am. Also, the movie star Jimmy Stewart had a son who lived in my dorm and I remember seeing him on campus. His name was Rod on Ron. He went to Viet Nam and was killed immediately and Jimmy Stewart NEVER got over his death. I remember him coming to one of our parties seeing all the brothers with Miss Charlene on their arms but he wasn't alarmed. He wanted to play football at my school but really wasn't that much athletic. The Star of our team was Oscar Reed who played for the Minn. Vikings and went to Super BOwl. Another Black History moment from Fanteeking!!

Comment: musb, was you saying that when Halle Berry ran that bean over? .... CTFU!

Name: yunvme
Comment: its so funny to me how some act as if they wouldnt do any and everything possible to not spend time in jail. If you had the same money/connections/hookups as some as these "rich" people you be doing the same thing. Do yo thing Dallas.

Name: golfebj
Comment: They both happen to be represented by the same attorney and the attorney was the one with the connections.

Name: Joney
Comment: Yunvme ~ I'll admit I would.

Name: SpelmanRho
Comment: >golfebj: OKAYYYYYYYYYYYY. That explains it. I understand people work their power connections, but that's got to be one of the WIERDEST connections I've ever heard. yunvme: True, but I'm also gonna try my damnedest not to end up in foregin penal system. The US penal system is trip and a half itself I'm not EVEN gonna TRY one in an Arab country. Shooooooooooooooooooot.

Name: fanteeking
Comment: PS: Jimmy Stewart was a MORMON!!!

Name: cinnamonqueen
Comment: Let's be real, if i had connections or knew someone with connections and i did something stupid or not, i will utilize those connections for myself, family or friends. why have connections otherwise, but i hope he gets help 4 real.

Name: Gemami
