Even the 'fat cat' reference, probably linked to class struggle, can be of foreign origin. The term expresses a POV against personal wealth. This POV is more likely to be held by a foreigner than a US citizen.
Based on what? I can go a few miles up the road to the local college and hear that kind of talk from plenty of people.
Now if you will please tell me if either PR or JR have any other exemplars of rambling or insane behavior, or is it just that one note on just that one night? You can take your time in answering.
No need to take my time, holdon. I'll be glad to do it now! Well, the rambling part. "Insane" is a rather subjective judgement. But If you want rambling, just watch any of the interviews Patsy gave with the police or the media. Any given answer will be overly long and elaborate, which, according to the laye Dr. Judianne Densen-Gerber, is classic guilt: you explain when you don't need to. Just off the top of my head, I remember Patsy was asked a question that would have needed a one-word answer. Her ensuing answer was like, 15 sentences. But if you wish more specific examples, I may aid you in this regard as well:
From the Barbara Walters interview:
PATSY RAMSEY: Let me tell you something. I am a cancer survivor of Stage 4 cancer. John has lost a child in an automobile accident. That completely changes your outlook When you are standing on the brink of death with a terminal illness your priorities suddenly line up.... in a row. And you know exactly what the important things are in life. And bed-wetting is totally insignificant. I love my children. I wouldn't ... harm them for anything in the world. Now I don't know how you answer someone that continually .... accuses you of some .... absurd notion.
and
PATSY RAMSEY: Um. I usually have something of hers with me all the time. I uh found this just recently when I had opened some boxes for the first time that I hadn't seen since we left Colorado. And um. You know to think that her little hand was ... was in this... (EMOTIONAL) glove and there's a little spot here where she obviously spilled something. And um. It makes me sad that that um (EMOTIONAL) you know there were happy little hands in this glove. Now they're gone.
From Larry King March 2000:
P. RAMSEY: She wore this one several times. She wore it at the -- for the Sunburst Pageant in Atlanta. I was on cloud nine watching her, because she was joust so full of spunk and energy, and it made me proud. People tried to make it seem ugly and something that it wasn't, and I just know how much fun it was, what a good time we had together doing it.
And
P. RAMSEY: Well, we spent a good deal of time talking about that in the book, and I think, without going into depth, we were prepared to go, if we were indicted, we were prepared to turn ourselves in, and that is a daunting thought. We had to make necessary preparations for Burke, especially. Papers had to be drawn up for his guardianship. We packed our bags to go to the jail house.
From 48 Hours October 2002:
Patsy Ramsey: "After John discovered the body and she was brought to the living room, when I laid eyes on her; I knelt down and hugged her. But I was, had my whole body on her body. My sweater fibers or whatever I had on that morning are going to transfer to her clothing. "
But when you read the police interviews, when John's not around to cut her off, THEN it gets REALLY interesting!
From Patsy's 1998 interview with Tom Haney:
Patsy Ramsey: "I don't give a flying flip how scientific it is. Go back to the damn drawing board. I didn't do it! John Ramsey didn't do it. And we didn't have a clue of anybody who did do it! So we all got to start working together from this day forward to try to find out who the hell did it! I mean, I appreciate being here. I appreciate it. It's very hard to be here, but it's a damn sight harder to be sitting at home in Atlanta Georgia wondering every second of every day what you guys are doing out here. You know, have you found anything? Are we any closer? Is the guy out here watching my house? You know, is my son safe? My life has been hell from that day forward and I want nothing more than to find out who is responsible for this."
and
Patsy Ramsey: "Didn't happen. If she got up in the night and ran into somebody, it was somebody there that wasn't supposed to be there. I don't know what transpired after that, whether it was an accident, intentional, premeditated or what not, but it was not one of her three family members that were also in that house. Period. End of statement."
All she had to say was "didn't happen."
and
17 TOM HANEY: So to the best of your
18 recollection, it was on, you think?
19 PATSY RAMSEY: I would say either
20 that light was on or there were also some
21 sconces right here on the stairwell, which were
22 dimmed and oftentimes we would leave that on,
23 because it was dimly lit as a night light sort
24 of lighting area.
25 TOM HANEY: Okay.
0025
1 PATSY RAMSEY: So something I am
2 sure was on, because it wasn't pitch black
3 walking down.
and
16 PATSY RAMSEY: They go in between,
17 they are in the stairway.
18 Okay, I come down here, and you
19 know, some of the rooms are light here where
20 these three pieces of paper were.
21 TOM HANEY: Which -- let me steal
22 that from you. Which running of the stairs were
23 they on?
24 PATSY RAMSEY: Well, it wasn't the
25 bottom one. I would say it was like -- I mean I
0031
1 had to bend over, you know, to look at it, you
2 know.
3 TOM HANEY: And when you first see
4 it, what's your first reaction?
5 PATSY RAMSEY: Well, my initial
6 reaction was that -- I mean, I probably would
7 stack things going upstairs, you know, shoes or
8 toys or whatever, that was -- and that would
9 take a load so there was typically always
10 something there, going one way or the other.
11 But this was laid out across the
12 tread, you know. This was laid out across the
13 treads, so I mean I just thought well, papers,
14 you know, John would have taken up to see or
15 something, I don't know. Thanks.
16 And then when I came down and
17 looked at it, glanced at it, my first reaction
18 was that it was a note from my cleaning lady.
and I could go on and on and on.
But I know what you'll say: it's all "after the fact" so it doesn't mean anything. I put a lot of work into this case. I'd really hate to think I've wasted it. So I have a few for you!
Now, the note never refers to JonBenet by name, right? Well, neither do the Ramseys in just about anything they say. I'm very interested in why. Could it be, possibly, that the note and their interviews don't mention her name for the same reason? That being that her name would make it "real" to the killer? Might it possibly be related to the fact that neither John nor Patsy mentions the pain and fear JB must have been in, but only in how their lives have been ruined? As if they were too interested in acting like victims to bother with the real victim? Well, for now, I'll have to go with the Bugs Bunny answer: Mmmmm, COULD BE! Lol
I have something else, as well. In the interview with Larry King, John said this:
J. RAMSEY: We've looked at leads whose handwriting scored much, much higher than Patsy's on a comparison scale.
Well, isn't that interesting. It would certainly be news to the police! To the DA! Now, it's fairly obvious, at least to me, that he's talking about the bought- and paid-for "analysis" the Ramseys hired their own team to do. Yet, for all this bravado on John's part, neither they nor their attorneys nor their hired experts have ever made their analyses public! They had no problem making their polygraph tests public. Their "intruder" sketch was made public. And to release this information would definitely deal my side a serious blow. All they had to do was put their money where their mouths were (or is it the other way around?). But nothing. And you don't have to take my word for it. Last year, during the Karr debacle, Darnay Hoffman was interviewed by Bill O'Reilly. Now, personally, I think a monkey could have done a better job with what he had than he did, but I couldn't help but agree with him when he said, and I quote:
The Ramseys have never released any of their handwriting reports, which they could have done and cleared Patsy immediately. They released a polygraph but none of their own reports which is suspect to begin with. The DA said he would never indict on probable cause; they needed beyond a reasonable doubt. But they're charging on probable cause with this suspect, John Karr.
Personally, to me it's irrelevant what the other side's personal feelings toward me are. But I can't not see what my eyes tell me. In order for me to believe that the Ramsey story is legit, I have to believe that what my eyes tell me are lies.
