25 years after her rape claims sparked
a firestorm, Tawana Brawley
avoids the spotlight

New York Post, by MICHAEL GARTLAND

Original Article

Posted By:Toledo, 12/23/2012 9:27:29 AM

Her silence is deafening.Twenty-five years after the spotlight first glared on Tawana Brawley — a black woman who as a teen claimed she was raped by a gang of white men, smeared with feces and stuffed in a garbage bag — she’s desperately struggling to stay hidden from public view. “I don’t want to talk to anyone about that,” Brawley, 40, said recently after The Post found her in Hopewell, Va., where she lives in a neatly kept brick apartment complex with signs warning of video surveillance cameras.

It takes a loooong time to get over ´illegitimate´ rape.

The difference with the Centrl Park jogger case was that the five lads admitted that they committed the crime.

Skank is too good a word for this lying cow. I lived in Hyde Park and was called for jury duty and was in the court house when the skank and sharpton waltzed by us to
leave the court house. No one believed her that had a brain. Her neighbors were laughing their heads off as she was a big liar and was sneaking out to meet whoever. They left Poughkeepsie and would have been run out on a rail if we had had our way. Sharpton is a fat short media hunter and a liar to boot. They would not dare come back to that area.

An apology from this woman and an explanation as to why she did what she did would go a long way towards helping me forgive her. OTOH, apologies from Sharpton or from his two attorney colleagues would never suffice; they were and remain malicious race-baiters, blights not only on their race, but on humanity.

I am inclined to forgive Ms Brawley. She made a mistake as teenagers, does not purport to be person of the cloth and has shunned the lime light since then.

On the other hand, the Reverend Sharpton has yet to apolgive,for the Brawley fraud, or any other his his frauds, basks in the lime light and continues to pontficate as his scat did not stink.

Anybody who is up, out the door and headed to work at 6:30 AM deserves credit. She took the time and effort to earn her specialized training as an LPN. That license does not come out of a crackerjack box. She is credited by co workers with being a good worker.

While the Rev. Al and the MSM are still making headlines with preposterous narratives about "racist" events that never happened, it appears she has been busy in the real world, working and contributing something of value to society.

They should leave her alone. What she did was despicable, but the involvement of Sharpton and the other guy (whose name escapes me, unfortunately) is what really caused all this. She was very young and I think she was tricked. If her upbringing had been better, maybe she would not have been so easily led to the lie.

She works a living, hopefully pays her taxes, I say give her some peace. It´s Sharpton who continues to play this card and who should be in prison.

I can´t help but think that she made a stupid mistake as a teen, was exploited by Sharpton and Alton Maddox and now....well, she is working and paying taxes and making her own way.

I will pray for her.

The word rape is from a quote of a statement by a 15 year old child. And it was shown beyond a reasonable doubt that there was no rape. So the headline should have quotes to read "rape".

But what do I know? I didn´t go to journalism school so I still believe that headlines should tell the truth instead of a spreading a sensational lie.

Tawana is now an insignificant little cipher. Sharpton, however, the parasite who launched his national career by using her, continues to be an honored member of the Democrat Party and has his own TV show. Just imagine if this, with races reversed, had involved a Conservative white preacher.

I do not agree to cutting her any slack at all, the men she accused of raping her were losing their jobs and wives - finally one man found some black that would talk and that was when she should have been jailed and kept there. No apologies, no nothing from this dirty brat.

She was 15 at the time. Lied and then was easily manipulated. Not excusing her, but not going to make it out to be like she was a 30 year old adult. She is a nurse and apparently does some good in this world. Sharpton etc took advantage of her. How Christianlike of many of you.

No sympathy. I´m glad they tracked her down. She is a reminder of what a liar and scoundrel Sharpton is, and this story should dog him the rest of his days.

Sharpton and Brawley ruined lives and cost the taxpayers heavily. They should have gone to jail.

By changing names for the fraudulent purpose of hiding from her debt, she is still breaking the law.

Obama’s chump change

President Obama is giving back 5% of his $400,000 salary to show solidarity with federal workers hit by the dread sequester. That’s not much of a nick to a man who has no worries about living expenses and has plenty of independent income, to boot. But, hey, symbolism counts. It’s an appropriate gesture for a debate about debt and deficits that’s shallow, thanks in no small part to Obama. The dread sequester — remember that? — went into effect one month ago, following weeks of presidential fear-mongering about the automatic cuts.

Never once discussed, however, by advocates is how this issue has anything to do with the economic state of the nation today. Legalizing gay marriage will not improve the economy nor is it really that important to the average homosexual. Celebrity nuptials and endorsements may garner news coverage stressing it as a civil rights issue but ironically these come from a wealthier than average demographic.

The Herald quoted from an affidavit filed March 6. “The questions posed to her were directed at forcing her to admit” that Menendez “participated in parties with…prostitutes,” according to maid Rosa de Jesus Acosta’s written accusation, as reported by The Herald.

One of the ongoing perplexities of President Obama’s Syria policy has been the stark contrast between his muscular rhetoric and halting, hesitant actions. On the one hand, he has insisted that the country’s dictator Bashar al-Assad “must” go and has predicted that his fall is all but assured. But on the other, he has thus far limited himself to authorizing aid in the form of training and intelligence for Syria’s beleaguered rebels. While we’d be the last to conclude that the case for intervening in Syria is open and shut, we have argued here at Via Meadia

No one is more preoccupied these days with Hillary Clinton´s 2016 plans than the Beltway political class—not even the former presidential candidate herself. To hear some tell it, her decision will be dispositive for all other Democrats thinking of entering the race.

If she runs, she clears the field.” It´s an understandable conclusion, given Clinton´s stature in the Democratic Party and her 70 percent

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton explained to the Women in the World summit in New York today that the clock is turning back for women in America. Clinton praised her own mother for helping empower her to success and marveled at the opportunities that her own daughter Chelsea has pursued. But Clinton warned that there is still so much to do to promote women´s rights in America. "As I look at all these young women that I am privileged to work with, or know through Chelsea, and its hard to imagine turning the clock on them," Clinton said.

The Obama White House is scrambling to blame Friday’s abysmal March jobs numbers on the sequester’s trimming of the rate of growth in federal budgets that have yet to fully commence. After the Labor Department announced that a mass exodus of 663,000 workers left the U.S. workforce last month and that job creation fell 112,000 jobs short of projections, Obama’s top economic adviser Alan B.

SANFORD - Trayvon Martin´s parents have settled a wrongful death claim for an amount believed to be more than $1 million against the homeowners association of the Sanford subdivision where their teenage son was killed. Their attorney, Benjamin Crump, filed that paperwork at the Seminole County Courthouse, a portion of which was made public today. In the five pages of the settlement that were available for public review, the settlement amount had been marked out.
