AP: Police have a suspect in Wicker case

The AP reported the police have a suspect in the Roger Wicker case:

"WASHINGTON (AP) — Unlike with the Boston Marathon bomber, police have a suspect in mind as they try to determine who mailed a letter to Sen. Roger Wicker that tested positive for poisonous ricin, a Senate colleague said.

"The person that is a suspect writes a lot of letters to members," Sen. Claire McCaskill, D-Mo., said Tuesday as she emerged from a classified briefing.

Authorities declined to comment on a suspect or any other aspect of the investigation being led by Capitol Police and the FBI after tests indicated that a letter mailed to the veteran Mississippi Republican's Washington office contained the potentially deadly toxin. The letter was intercepted at a Senate mail facility in Prince George's County, Md., just outside Washington, said Illinois Sen. Dick Durbin, a member of the Senate's Democratic leadership."

I'm glad.
I do hope if , yet again, our home grown terrorists turn out to be " true believers" on the extreme right, it will be a hint that inflammatory rhetoric incites the crazy fringe to believe they will heroes for " the cause".
And, I hope the idiot on this site that kept characterizing Sen. Wicker as " a traitor" is having a pang of conscience.
Words are powerful...just ask any iman.

I think CLAIRE was confused when she made her statement...then again she is not a very bright woman

I can just see Federal LE sitting around and saying, "Hey, we got info on a crime...lets tell Claire McCaskill!" Lets look at what Sen. Claire said. She stated that they have someone in mind because they WRITE alot of letters to members...so everyone who writes multible letters is a suspect. That would include EVERY lobbying and activist group in the country...also every citizen that writes letters..which would be tens of thousands. On top of that she just left a CLASSIFIED BRIEFING and descided to speak about what was discussed...NICE CLAIRE!!!!

If don't think Roger will sell out the conservatives that sent him to Washington, why don't you ask him why he voted "yay" for the NDAA? Which, as I've said many times here, gives the President (whoever he/she may be at the time) the power to take you, your spouse, your children, whoever, into custody with no charges filed, provide no information on where you are or why you've been taken, and keep you in lockup as long as they see fit. He took an oath to uphold the constitution, and he broke it. That's a fact.

10:17 - and yet, you're still here, posting comments. Damn ineffective federal government!

10:17 -- and, so, he clearly deserves ricin poisoning for that?

BTW, where and who are these hordes of men, women, and children who Wicker has caused to be taken and held without cause? I am assuming that the lack of information about such an phenomenon is the very proof of its existence.

Fanaticism, both right and left, will be the death of America. THAT'S a fact.

Your childlike attempt to be clever, notwithstanding, the fact remains good old go-along-to-get-along Roger voted to deny citizens of their rights. If he did it once, he'll do it again. Is that concept too hard for you to grasp?

I think 10:17 is the suspect that Claire referred to

I agree w/ 11:08.

KF, check the blog for ricin.

Show me where ricin is mentioned anywhere in the previous comment. Attempting to change the focus of what was said, and adding statements such as your ricin charge to it doesn't address the fact that just because it may, or may not, have been done yet, Wicker and his RINO ilk have given power to the President that was never intended to be given. The only facts presented so far are that, yes, Wicker voted to take away citizen's rights and that you cannot dispute that.

There's a fungus amongus. This time he posted @ 10:42. He periodically inserts the same, tired, meaningless BS comment, which is: "...and yet, you're still here, posting comments."

So, as a point of order, is it suggested that anyone opposed to Wicker's tactics (or anyone else's for that matter) take a sabbatical from the blog and not have an opinion?

One thing's for sure...the 10:42 troll is stuck on stoopid and 'is still here posting'.

Marshal Matt Dillon of Dodge City arrested his deputy FESTUS aka Ken Curtis in Tupelo for the Ricin-Laced letters sent to POTUS and Sen Wicker. Miss Kitty could not be reached for comment.

Paul Kevin Curtis, 45 of Corinth arrested...gotta love it, Mississippi is in the news. Who wants to bet he listens to Supertalk?

Anonymous said...

Sadly, I'm not surprised that the suspect is from Mississippi and sent a letter to Obama as well.

The hatred for Obama and the hatred for anyone who doesn't walk in goose step with the extreme right leads those like the Tupelo crazy to think he'd be a hero.

7:17 pm you apparently are not a student of either history or human behavior. Hitler never turned on the gas or lit the oven, he just persuaded others over time that it was acceptable .The Jews were to blame for the woes of the country. Aryan ideals as described by him and his " true believers" were superior , not to be questioned and those not Aryan were a threat to Germany. Imans aren't committing suicide, they are inciting the troubled to be willing to do so and don't tolerate any other interpretation of the Koran.

Words are powerful enough to inspire and also powerful enough to provoke horrors.

Hatred can breed violence and violence feeds on hatred. You must not be an adult if you don't know that.

10:17 - There is no consensus of opinion that NDAA authorizes any such scenario as the one you describe. There has been discussion - and concern - from BOTH PARTIES that the current language in the law may lend itself to abuse by a power hungry administration but the law certainly does not clearly authorize such unlimited as you describe. Regardless, and considering the Boston bombings, I have no problem whatsoever with our government holding "suspected terrorists" for as long as it takes to confirm that the suspicion is unfounded. Such a concept does not worry ME because I have no plans to do anything that would cause myself to be suspected of committing a terrorist act.

And, anonymous at 9:15, you've made yourself sound more stupid that you accuse Senator Clairof being. She did NOT say they had someone in mind BECAUSE he wrote lots of letters, she simply commented that the person they had in mind had written lots of letters...in other words, his name was familiar to most of them.

7:58 pm didn't get it wrong.

Paul Kevin Curtis is an Elvis impersonator and blogger on right wing website and under arrest.

The suspect shares your mind set 8:57 pm.

Hitler never turned on the gas or lit the oven,...

Assuming that you are referring to the commonly described homicidal gas chambers, there were no such execution "devices" in Germany or the countries under its occupation from 1939-1945. There is a tourist attraction "gas chamber" built in Poland sometime in 1948. The photos that are produced as "proof" are actually delousing "chambers" that were used at the concentration camps to control the spread of typhus disease. For the REAL history of the Third Reich, read David Irving's Nuremberg:The Last Battle.

I guess those millions of Jews died from getting too clean, right?

Anonymous said...

I'm assuming Hilter moved Jews into special camps to care for their well being. They were the only people in Germany at the time that had lice and typhus, thus they had to be segregated into special camps.
That's the only logical explanation to your comment.

Anonymous said...

Try to think 7:08- 10:56 am

How do you think the Jews got to be seen as the blame for all the problems in Germany?

The Nazi Party propaganda machine , headed by Goebbels convinced folks like you that Jews and Gypsies and other " non-Aryans" were to blame for all things evil ( substitute liberals, Democrats, non-Christians and African American today).

Germany didn't go from the Kaiser to Hitler to gas chambers overnight ! It was a process that included getting rid of or politically negating the Germans who didn't agree with the Nazis!

Try visiting the Holocaust museum's Propaganda section in DC and see if you don't recognize your attitude towards those with whom you disagree.

I absolutely love the jackassery going on here.

Why not just say what you want?

Profanity is not allowed, within decorum.

Are you insinuating speech should be stifled in specific instances because you disagree?

KaptKangaroo said...

Forgive me, shit, it forgot, profanity IS allowed, within reason.

KaptKangaroo said...

Damn, I meant, "I forgot".

Kingfish said...

OK, I've been out of town all week and someone else has been moderating comments. I'm leaving Pug's comment up for ONE reason and one reason only. He comments here on a regular basis and I'm going to let him show his true colors with that comment. Obviously he is anti-Semitic and an idiot but if I take it down, people who read his other comments won't realize what he really is. He wants to broadcast his true feelings, no problem. He got to do it once.

And once was enough. I won't be approving any more comments such as this one by him.

I don't mean to be rude, but you are an idiot. This is the same nonsense you loons tried to pull on Mama Grizzly when she said "don't retreat, reload." Why don't you stop trying to deflect and actually debate the issues? Is it because you lose on the facts and therefore must dishonestly make the narrative about the personality of your opponent?

Crazy people do crazy things because they are crazy--not because someone called Wicker a traitor on a blog.

Anonymous said...

Actually, crazy people post crazy, irrational things on a blog, like calling Wicker a traitor, before doing something even more deranged, because their attempted reality wasn't true.

How obvious is it that Kaptain Suckup's posts are never censored or 'removed by a blog administrator'?

I guess, unfortunate for you, you, after reflecting on my status on the interwebs, are left wandering in the dark wondering things that most people would find, frankly, non-problème 7:12PM?

Trollfest '09

Trollfest '07 was such a success that Jackson Jambalaya will once again host Trollfest '09. Catch this great event which will leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Othor Cain and his band, The Black Power Structure headline the night while Sonjay Poontang returns for an encore performance. Former Frank Melton bodyguard Marcus Wright makes his premier appearance at Trollfest singing "I'm a Sweet Transvestite" from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Kamikaze will sing his new hit, “How I sold out to da Man.” Robbie Bell again performs: “Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Bells” and “Any friend of Ed Peters is a friend of mine”. After the show, Ms. Bell will autograph copies of her mug shot photos. In a salute to “Dancing with the Stars”, Ms. Bell and Hinds County District Attorney Robert Smith will dance the Wango Tango.

Wrestling returns, except this time it will be a Battle Royal with Othor Cain, Ben Allen, Kim Wade, Haley Fisackerly, Alan Lange, and “Big Cat” Donna Ladd all in the ring at the same time. The Battle Royal will be in a steel cage, no time limit, no referee, and the losers must leave town. Marshand Crisler will be the honorary referee (as it gives him a title without actually having to do anything).


Meet KIM Waaaaaade at the Entergy Tent. For five pesos, Kim will sell you a chance to win a deed to a crack house on Ridgeway Street stuffed in the Howard Industries pinata. Don't worry if the pinata is beaten to shreds, as Mr. Wade has Jose, Emmanuel, and Carlos, all illegal immigrants, available as replacements for the it. Upon leaving the Entergy tent, fig leaves will be available in case Entergy literally takes everything you have as part of its Trollfest ticket price adjustment charge.

Donna Ladd of The Jackson Free Press will give several classes on learning how to write. Smearing, writing without factchecking, and reporting only one side of a story will be covered. A donation to pay their taxes will be accepted and she will be signing copies of their former federal tax liens. Ms. Ladd will give a dramatic reading of her two award-winning essays (They received The Jackson Free Press "Best Of" awards.) "Why everything is always about me" and "Why I cover murders better than anyone else in Jackson".

In the spirit of helping those who are less fortunate, Trollfest '09 adopts a cause for which a portion of the proceeds and donations will be donated: Keeping Frank Melton in his home. The “Keep Frank Melton From Being Homeless” booth will sell chances for five dollars to pin the tail on the jackass. John Reeves has graciously volunteered to be the jackass for this honorable excursion into saving Frank's ass. What's an ass between two friends after all? If Mr. Reeves is unable to um, perform, Speaker Billy McCoy has also volunteered as when the word “jackass” was mentioned he immediately ran as fast as he could to sign up.


In order to help clean up the legal profession, Adam Kilgore of the Mississippi Bar will be giving away free, round-trip plane tickets to the North Pole where they keep their bar complaint forms (which are NOT available online). If you don't want to go to the North Pole, you can enjoy Brant Brantley's (of the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance) free guided tours of the quicksand field over by High Street where all complaints against judges disappear. If for some reason you are unable to control yourself, never fear; Judge Houston Patton will operate his jail where no lawyers are needed or allowed as you just sit there for minutes... hours.... months...years until he decides he is tired of you sitting in his jail. Do not think Judge Patton is a bad judge however as he plans to serve free Mad Dog 20/20 to all inmates.

Trollfest '09 is a pet-friendly event as well. Feel free to bring your dog with you and do not worry if your pet gets hungry, as employees of the Jackson Zoo will be on hand to provide some of their animals as food when it gets to be feeding time for your little loved one.

Relax at the Fox News Tent. Since there are only three blonde reporters in Jackson (being blonde is a requirement for working at Fox News), Megan and Kathryn from WAPT and Wendy from WLBT will be on loan to Fox. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both and a torn-up Obama yard sign will entitle you to free drinks served by Megan, Wendy, and Kathryn. Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required. Just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '09 is for EVERYONE!!!

This is definitely a Beaver production.
