Under attack.

Today during the Zimmerman trail the defense lawyer was hostile, ridiculing and insulting to black witness Rachel Jeantel who speaks three languages: English, Spanish and Creole. He particularly made it clear that she cannot read cursive writing. Despite that I thought she was spunky, honest and terrific. On the other hand he was wonderfully deferential to attractive blonde witness who has lived in the United States for twelve years and does not speak English. Racist?  You decide.

Note: Later tonight on Jane Velez-Mitchell's "panel of experts", panelist Phillip Snyder referred to her testimony as "precious", then denied he was making any reference to the movie of the same name which also featured a large black not-bright girl. Liar. The other Zimmerman male fan, Frank Taaffe, at once ridiculed her ignorance and then said that she created a mellage of lies. There is, of course, no such word. This better-than-though ignoramus meant melange.
