Just watched the video and the fact that rocky is lying is obvious - just look at his body language - are there any experts out there who can analyze this clip???
Impressive journalism, Mayor Sam. You deserve a Pulitzer prize for cutting and pasting the video link.
rocky can't even lie well - how pathetic is that
Well, it is obvious that our subject has been ambushed. He must have been led to believe that he was being interviewed about his campaign stunts in the Bay Area. Alas the trickster was tricked.
He's frying under the bright lights. The game now is to lie about having lied without being caught in another lie. Not an easy task with the cameras rolling. Thus, he relies on a modifier to provide wiggle room. He says he doesn't "believe" that he ever made the claims in question, and instead he "believes" that he separated the scholarship from the football. His voice also trails off and weakens as his makes his defense. Methinks the prosecutor doth lack conviction.
But the eyes have it. Look at the way he's blinking those peepers. He can't look away from the camera, so heavy prolonged blinks are the only method to break eye contact -- the true mark of the liar. For a brief sweet second he can escape the glare of those probing, burning, blinding lamps.
What is the harm in a few small lies? Everybody does it.
Rocky: good night, and good riddance.
Rocky wants me to hire him as my state attorney - it's a big deal because I don't want a liar to be in charge of my legal system.
Alas, every one knows in the legal system their are more liars than not. This job requires moral flexibility, and to those that think not, try going to court and get a fair shake at justice, just ask the millions of minorities that face the docket every day. In my opinion Rocky is perhaps the lesser of two evils and its up to us to decide which we want, a washed up gay politico or a mexican american attorney that goes to bat for us chicanos.
Last time I checked, not everyone in California was Chicano. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
12:30 PM--
Rocky is only half-chicano. His mother is a cracker. You want a chicano/cracker handling the world's fifth-largest economy's litigation? Chale homes!
woah, woah, woah. race has nothing to do with any of this--the guy's a liar plain and simple.
Who cares. Rocky's a lawyer, not a priest. I want my AG to kick ass, not contemplate his navel. Even if he wasn't a pro football player, Rocky's more of a fighter than the failed seminarian he opposes.
I hope the previous poster was well paid from delgadillo's campaign - you should be well paid to lie for a liar.
Rocky's a fighter?
He sure falls on his back and kicks open his legs for those slumlords and billboard companies.
There's no way to smooth over that lying bastard's reputation now. Nice try, though.
ace don't you have better things to do then blog on mayor sam? your shit is so transparent.
No soy Ace, cabron.
Listen closely; I agree with all that has been said about Rocky and the stupidity of his embellishments about his bio. More like "half truths" rather than outright fabrications, no?
But the danger here is in Jerry Brown. He is a tinkerer, a dilettante and an amoral, asexual being.
He only cares about power and when he has it, he plays games and experiments with solutions. He listens to no one and everyone, follows his own, unsupported theories and cost the State of California its entire Judicial system, which has just finally recovered from his outrageous appointments.
Does anyone remember his appointment of Rose Bird to be Chief Justice of the Supreme Court? A woman with no judicial experience who wasn't even qualified to be a Justice of the Peace in a small burg. A woman who knew zilch about trying a case or being a lawyer or a judge.
And, that was but symptomatic of what he did for eight long years of terror for business and employers, putting our economy in Califonria into a tailspin.
Say what you will, when businesses pick up and leave the state, jobs go with them. Unemployement soared, and was out of whack with the rest of the country.
Given that Rocky is a dunce and proven liar, I'd vote for him ten times before I cut off my hand if I had to vote for Jerry "Governor Moonbeam" Brown.
Vote for Poochigian in the General Election after Jerry wins the nomination, or suffer a similar eight years of agony.
Man, I didn't know Pooch would blog here. That little screed about Jerry is right out of a bad republican handbook. And full of lies. "asexual"? "amoral"? You are a bit over the top 8:25.
We must elect Pooch so that California can effectively assist the Bush Administration in its efforts to overturn Roe v. Wade after the midterm elections. The Supreme Court is nicely stacked, and with a nice rightwing AG ensconced in CA, chances of success will be optimal. Then, we can cut off all the hands we want, and we might even learn how to spell California.
