Well, that would make me a little nuts, too.
So does this:
"Ex-officer guilty in Katrina killings case" by Associated Press | February 25, 2010
NEW ORLEANS - A former police lieutenant pleaded guilty yesterday to conspiring to obstruct justice after federal officials say he helped cover for officers who killed two people on a bridge in the chaos following Hurricane Katrina.
Ooooh, but that never happens in AmeriKan government, no sir!
9/11 was Muslims from a cave.
Federal investigators say former lieutenant Michael Lohman knew two people shot to death as they crossed the Danziger Bridge had no weapons, but he and others filed false reports to make the shootings seem justified....
In AmeriKa?
No way!

"Ex-New Orleans officer enters guilty plea" by Associated Press | March 12, 2010
NEW ORLEANS — A second former New Orleans police officer pleaded guilty yesterday to covering up the deadly shooting of unarmed residents after Hurricane Katrina....
We are from the government and we are here to help. So when do the Blackwater mercenaries that crawled the streets and did same get arraigned?
Jeffrey Lehrmann, who left the Police Department in 2006 and is a special agent at the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement office in Phoenix, pleaded guilty to misprision of a felony, which means he had knowledge of a crime and didn’t report it.
A lot of people could be brought up on that one, and like this guy, they work for government. They never tell you the truth, folks -- about anything.
Or if they do it is reluctant and spun in such a way as to facilitate the cover-up.
Another former officer pleaded guilty last month to a conspiracy charge.
A court filing yesterday outlines new details about the alleged coverup that followed the Sept. 4, 2005, shootings on the Danziger Bridge, which also led to a Justice Department investigation.
You have GUYS PLEADING GUILTY and the MSM still uses the word "alleged?"
Do they do that with the terror show trials?
The filing says police fabricated two witnesses, kicked spent shell casings off the bridge weeks after the shooting, and held a secret meeting in a gutted-out police building to make sure officers who shot at unarmed civilians got their false stories straight before taping interviews.
Yeah, but believe the authorities in AmeriKa; they are only out to protect and serve.
The filing also reveals how police investigators carried out a plot to plant a gun to make it appear the shootings were justified....
Oh, you are KIDDING!!!!!
The shootings initially were seen as a symbol of the confusion and lawlessness that followed in the weeks after Katrina hit — only to become a mark of shame on the Police Department once the coverup emerged.
Oh, look what the poor murderers did to the oppressors image.
You would never even know there were two innocent people killed.

Of course, grand cover-ups like the 9/11 fable continue throughout eternity, don't they?
So what can the MSM shovel at you instead?
"La. woman pleads guilty to selling children" by Associated Press | February 24, 2010
NEW ORLEANS - A Louisiana woman has pleaded guilty to selling two children for a cockatoo and $175 in what her attorney called an attempt to do a good thing that went wrong.
Didn't we (allegedly) fight a Civil War over such things (found out later it was more economics than altruism)?
And that's all she wanted?
“It was a really clumsy attempt at an adoption proceeding,’’ said Steve Sikich, attorney for Donna Louise Greenwell of Pitkin. “She was trying to help the children and get them situated.’’
Greenwell, 53, was sentenced Monday to 15 months of hard labor on each of two criminal counts, sale of a minor. The sentences will run concurrently.
The case centered on a 5-year-old boy and a 4-year-old girl in Greenwell’s custody.
Investigators said she called Paul J. Romero, 46, and Brandy Lynn Romero, 27, of Evangeline Parish early last year after seeing a flier they posted offering a cockatoo for sale, and offered to deliver the children for about $2,000. When the Romeros said they could not afford that, a deal was stuck for the bird, valued at $1,500, plus cash.
WTF? Something more than meets the eye here.
Greenwell had custody of the children for more than a year before meeting the Romeros, Sikich said. Her lawyers have maintained she was just trying to find a better home for them.
Neither the children’s’ mother nor their father could be located, Sikich said.I wish I hadn't located this story.
