NC Gov. Easley: Nifong “Poorest Appointment I Ever Made”

From the Raleigh News and Observer

Gov. Mike Easley said last month that picking Mike Nifong to be Durham's district attorney was the worst appointment of his career, and he said Nifong broke his promise not to run for the office.

Easley told law students in New York that Nifong's decision to seek office in last fall's election almost prompted him to consider yanking Nifong from office.

"I almost un-appointed him when he decided to run," Easley said. "I rate that as probably the poorest appointment that I've," the governor trailed off before adding "I've made some good ones."

The governor said Nifong had done a poor job.

"You don't need me to tell you that," he said.

No, you do not need to tell us that. Nifong is a disgrace to the judicial system. He has effectively ruined the lives of the Duke lacrosse players and their familes. Even when aquitted, there will always be residual stains on their honor, and debt up the wazzoo for the legal costs. And there is little that the accused can do to hold Nifong personally responsible.

God bless your website and the FOX News channel for exposing the corrupt Nifong for what that SOB really is. How many MORE lives did he RUIN in North Carolina after sucking up to his minority base CONstituents? How many MORE citizens are unfairly behind bars from Bitch Nifong? I hope that the ‘Duke 3′ stick an extra hot Blue Devil Pitchfork of justice up his pathetic ‘MY BAD’ ass! Please keep us posted on this misjustice.

Now the question remains will the name “Duke” ever be uttered without thoughts immediately flashing to this atrocity. Will the thoughts always contain the word ‘RAPE’?

NIFONG NOT ONLY DESTROYED THREE YOUNG LIVES, AND THEIR FAMILIES, BUT ALSO THE CAREER AND REPUTATION OF THE COACH, AND ALL THOSE WHO SAY OR WHO WILL SAY “I AM A GRADUATE OF DUKE UNIVERSITY.”

I’m so pissed I COULD SPIT!
