Everytime that a news reporter, a pundit, or just the man in the street indicates by their choice of words something other than the truth - that is that Crystal Gayle Mangum falsely accused three students of raping her- then the three men are damaged. It needs to be stated over and over again - Crystal Mangum LIED and Mike Nifon, Richard Brodhead, the Gang of 88, the DUMC aided and abetted in THAT LIE. THis is the reason that there needs to be a hefty judgment against those who had a hand in allowing the false and baseless charges to proceed. <BR/>cksAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13073631.post-43424758798678728832008-07-24T22:08:00.000-04:002008-07-24T22:08:00.000-04:00Q:It probably wouldn't help.Them what can, does.Th...Q:<BR/><BR/>It probably wouldn't help.<BR/><BR/>Them what can, does.<BR/>Them what can't, teaches.<BR/>Them what can neither do, nor teach, scribble in newspapers.<BR/><BR/>-- No, not <I>that</I> GlennAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13073631.post-68144346070216519532008-07-24T20:40:00.000-04:002008-07-24T20:40:00.000-04:00Andrew Giuliani used to be a terror.
