Raymond Clark profile not unusal, common of perpetrators of domestic violence as well, control issues, low self-esteem, fragile ego, can't control anger if feels offended or not able to control situation.
So they stopped this project, but how many equally wasteful are going on? No one knows because the Administration and Congress aren't providing oversight; the very thing they criticized Bush for on TARP.
Is Sec Napolitano coming out to Montana to personally review the project? Does she plan to be in touch w/ Montana legislators?
When are we gonna wake up and stop this waste of our money
Remember when Al Gore did the review of government spending and we paid $600 for a toilet seat?
Like we should be surised that that money isnt going to anything meaningful... Government officials dont have to suffer so why sould they care...
It only takes one car with a terrorist driver to pass a border crossing that is virtually empty to do a hell of alot of damage.
Yes, we are a bit of a wasteful society aren't we?
This border crossing story is unbelievable. Napolitano was right to put the kibosh on this. Maybe this is one of those if you build it they will come, because no one's coming through there right now.
What an excellent report by Drew.
Why can't government (Stare or Federal) keep track of where the stimulus money goes. It can't be that hard.
It's another outrage and certainly contributes to mistrust of the government (stae & federal).
The problem is that for the first time those who pay taxes are outnumbered by those who don't. It's too easy for the majority to spend other people's money.
The Montana spending is an example of why all Americans don't have healthcare.
Waste.
drew's piece is wild! that much $ for three people?! oy
Stimulus Shame?
I find truly interesting and weird that so much money is being used on those "remote checkpoints" and honestly I don't see where they could spend ALL that money! Sitting in the middle of the road, in the middle of the day added more drama to the situation. My opinion.
I'm not so fast to convict as some people here. Let's wait and see what develops.
This story of the boarder crossing just shows the tip of the iceberg of pork in the stimulus. It was rushed, and it's a mess wasting $800 billion. A lesson for health care if we choose to learn it.
Erica, Quality Time or Quiet Time with Emily Post? Or both? Good pt.
Given how beautiful Annie Le is, I would imagine that Raymond Clark was overwhelmingly attracted to her. That is speculation of course, and he is innocent until proven guilty, but that seems like a higly possible.
One thing I notice is that even with all those cameras, it's a very isolate place.
I've been doing a lot of driving around PA lately, and surprised how little highway construction there has been. I'd expect with the stimulus to see even more Penn DOT workers out there than usual, but there are way less. We've had a budget stalemate for 2 1/2 months which might have something to do with it, but not sure.
Pittsburgh does have a lot of roadwork being done... probably getting ready for the G20 next week.
People taking advantage of "free" money ... what a shock
I don't buy the 'more violent society' line. I remember the race riots in the 60's, the very violent anti-war protests, and the ultimate threat to our country....disco.
If the Republican Party for once would stand up and call these people out that display extreme hateful signs or verbally make remarks that could be interpreted as racial, making clear they do not want be associated with them, they might regain some respect from people who want to believe they are not like them.
On Anne Le story... This is really disturbing. I agree that if he was able to put his hands on Anne Le, he obvioulsy have a lot of anger inside for him to snap like that. More to be revealed, I guess.... My prayers for Anne Le's family and to his fiancee`.
I see a lot of bulleying at work. Someone I once interviewed had been fired from his last job for punching his boss on a job site in the field.
I saw the pictures of the Garrido home online. It's just as creepy as I thought it would be.
Rhonda Saunders: thanks for proving the world that a person may express his/her opinion without altering evidence.
Lisa Bloom: I'm glad you're also expressing your opinion, this way the act does not stay only on one point of view and we are able to analyze this topic better.
In my personal opinion, I agree with Lisa, but it also has to be labeled as Workplace violence because it occurred at the workplace.
I don't know what workplace violence really means. But, clearly this crime against Annie Le was a crime of rage for whatever reason.
I too feel that there is much more to this story than workplace violence.
Something about his work and an email to her about her work and she said she would do better...was she dismissive? It does not matter that he was in charge of the cages and animals, that is his job no less important than her studies. We shall wait and see what devolops. Tragic all the way around.
"A more violent society" made me crindge ,but it does appear to be true.
Can we do anything to turn things around? Shooting/killings in the work place, road rage, neighbors harboring kidnapped kids and no one notices for years, and on and on....
As Marvin Gay sung ' whats going on?
Comment to Danielle, she knows he was hiding something because of the facts that have come out. I think they call it Monday morning quarterbacking which means it is easy to see something you missed after all the facts are out.
Maybe he didn't like her.
I strongly agree with Lisa Bloom's analysis of the situation.
@JOHN
She's the victim.
It is an unusual setting for work.
Yes, I'm suspecting what Lisa said. But we don't know yet.
My heart goes to Annie Le's families, friends, College of Yale.......... 🙁
Has anyone here experienced workplace violence? I have, but I taught in the inner city schools. There it is tragically accepted as par for the course.
$3 million for bail...that's a lot. if this guy did kill Annia Le, I hope he would just confess and let people grieve
Needless to say I am a African American, and I tell you again, I havent face the kind of racism that I expereinced at the healh care forum snice the fight for civil rights in the 60's. Denial is dangerous and it wont work. The whole world is watching.
This lady says he did a good job of hiding his nervousness, if he did such a great job how did she know he was hiding anything. It seems like anyone remotely associated with the victim and the accused are trying to get on TV.
Clark has some relatives working in the same place,he was like the Captain of the cages"
Yeah and everybody always says "him him him" what do we know about her?
Maybe he wasn't hiding being nervous maybe he just didn't care
This is a cold and frightening case.
Why are the rooms soundproof?? WhY do they need that?
How terrifying for someone's dream and life getting vanished on the day she wanted to start her new life? Not sure why we as humans have become destroyer of our own kind. What do people really get when they kill someone? Can they really live at peace?
I am glad he arrested by police and charged for murder of Anne Le of Yale.
I think all this is going to backfire on the republicans. The people with the signs and hateful signs are outnumbered by those of us watching. I just wish they would stop it because it scares me that some nut is going to try something terrible.
She seemed to be a girl so full of life and vivacity (for these photos).
Dear Anderson,
Those who carry signs, photos, and nasty slogans denigrating the president of the United States are racists! The Supreme Court said
it best ..."You Know it when you see it" This is scary.
@ Erica: One of the networks is running PSA about manners! I can not believe it.
how about an affair???
