Breaking – DSK's case is unraveling - El caso DSK se desmorona

When the people at sipmacrants! ran to nominate and celebrate the former IMF head honcho Dominique Strauss – Kahn as an a-hole of the first semester of 2011, it was because the allegations of his sexual aggression against an African maid in a luxury hotel in New York looked crystal clear. Besides, his dubious, fishy behavior right after the alleged deed and of course his past played a huge role into the indictment; he had a reputation and worse, he was known as the big seducer.

Now the entire story sold to us is collapsing make all of us who believed the maid, from the law enforcement authorities and everyone that came in her defense, leaving them feeling incredibly embarrassed and duped. There is still evidence of a sexual encounter, but the woman is been swiftly caught in a web of lies, which tarnishes her motivation to point a finger accusing the powerful man of taking advantage of a defenseless insignificant woman.

• She cannot explain her acquaintance with an incarcerated man busted for a 400-pounds marijuana possession, speaking to him just a day after the incident about the possible benefits she could get in this situation. The conversation was taped.
• She lied in asylum applications about genital mutilation.
• In her bank account appeared out-of-state cash deposits in the lieu of $ 100.000.

This was found out not by the defense lawyer, but by the prosecutors.

Strauss – Kahn background might be still objectionable (even if he comes cleared of all charges, he still have a lot of ‘splaining to do in France), but he starts to look like a victim of a despicable entrapment plotted by an opportunistic woman, who knew that a rape accusation is a very powerful weapon against a man.


Any man.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Cuando la gente de sipmacrants! corrió a proponer y celebrar al ex director del FMI Dominique Strauss - Kahn como un gilipollas del primer semestre de 2011, esto se debió a que las acusaciones de su supuesta agresión sexual en contra una criada africana en un hotel de lujo en Nueva York parecían muy claras. Además, su conducta equívoca inmediatamente después del presunto acto y, por supuesto, su pasado también jugó un papel muy importante en la acusación, porque tenía una reputación previa y peor aún, era conocido como el gran seductor.

Ahora toda la historia que nos vendieron colapsa, y todos los que creían en la recamarera, empezando por las autoridades y todos aquellos que vinieron en su defensa, quedan engañados y avergonzados. Aún no hay pruebas de un encuentro sexual, pero la mujer ha quedado rápidamente atrapada en una telaraña de mentiras, lo que empaña su motivación para señalar con el dedo acusador a un hombre poderoso de aprovecharse de una mujer insignificante e indefensa.

* No puede explicar satisfactoriamente su relación con un hombre encarcelado, arrestado por posesión de 400 libras de marihuana, con quien habló tan sólo un día después del incidente, acerca de los posibles beneficios que ella podría conseguir en esa situación. La conversación fue grabada.
* Mintió en las solicitudes de asilo sobre una mutilación genital sufrida (una barbárica y detestable conducta común en el continente africano).
* En su cuenta bancaria aparecieron depósitos en efectivo de fuera del estado por valor de $ 100,000.

Estos no fueron hallazgos de parte de la defensa, sino de los fiscales.

El trasfondo de Strauss - Kahn podría ser aún cuestionable (aunque se retirasen los cargos, él todavía tiene un montón de explicaciones que hacer en Francia), pero él empieza a verse como una víctima de una trampa urdida por una despreciable mujer oportunista, que sabía que una acusación de violación es un arma muy poderosa contra un hombre.


Cualquier hombre.

A-Holes of 2011 - First Semester Edition!

Well, we have undoubtedly a plump, juicy year full of certified, blue-ribbon A-Holes! So let's start with the festivities and an early countdown for the semester:

Arnold Schwarzenegger: Arnoldo Suáreznegrete screwed it up the big time; he sired an illegitimate child and didn't fess it up immediatly to his wife, Maria Shriver. In the meanwhile, he continued his movie career and became governor of California. His tenure betrayed the same lack of integrity, leaving the Golden State in worse shape than he received it. His projects to revitalise his career went belly up with the uproar the scandal generated. Now a "Terminator 5" is put on hold, and a comic book super heroe with a "Family Values Man" background, that saves the planet in the guise of "The Governator" is completely abandoned. Way to go, Ahnold!

Lars Von Trier: a beloved artsy filmmaker in the exclusive Cannes clique, decides to promote his new flick "Melancholia" by declaring his admiration for Hitler and then gets expelled from the Festival by being declared persona non grata. I'm sure Von Trier must think at least something turned ok for him: he must be earning a nice entry on Metapedia!

Charlie Sheen: his transition from highest paid tv-actor to Trivia Pursuit material is running as smooth as expected. His "Violent Torpedo of Truth" One-Man-Show tour is in full decline and Chuck Lorre Productions hired a replacement for the Two and a Half Men Sitcom: Ashton Kutcher. Disgust disguised as good-luck wishes betrays the fact that the most viewed episode of the series will be the first featuring Ashton, even if the sitcom gets cancelled in the same season. #Winning Trifecta!

Dominique Strauss-Kahn: the epitome of the french nouveau ancien regime. A former communist turned socialist that likes to spend the night in US$ 3.000 a night hotel rooms. As head of the IMF, is the key holder of the world casino - normal rules do not apply to him. So the Great Seducer (no kidding, he was known that way) allegedly attempted to rape an african maid and then flee to France for cover, a la Roman Polanski. He must be facing the worst destiny he ever feared: a fair trial.

Masataka Shimizu: less known but not less deserving of this scorn-a-thon. The president of Tepco made through negligence and immoral cheapness the Fukushima Disaster possible. I do not recommend seppuku, but jail time could be an option for his evil deeds and not facing the music.



Newt Gringrich: the textbook case on how not to run for president of the United States. Chapter 1: Why attacking fellow GOPers alienates followers. Chapter 3: Why having a half-a-million dollars jewelry store unpaid bill is a nightmarish decision. Chapter 7: Why reversing oneself on early declarations qualifies you as the John Kerry of the right.

Michael Moore: I thought of him writing a book called "How to be a Socialist with Other People's Money while keeping an eye on yours", but the title is too long to be deemed "commercial". I'll repeat it: He's a stupid white man. Can't wait so see him teaming up with Olbermann. Greatest comedy couple ever!

Keith Olbermann/Al Gore: to complete the losers all-stars team at Current TV, Al Gore hired and offered ownership of a worthless tv network to someone fired from a failed cable news outlet with a extremely bad rep with his co-workers. This is the guy that wants to save us from global warming an this is the way he does business.
