Condit refuses to admit affair with Levy, denies involvement in her death
2010-11-02
[Washington Examiner] A defiant Gary My wife has no thumbs Condit refused to admit having a sexual relationship with slain intern Chandra Levy and denied having been involved in her 2001 murder.

Under oath in the first-degree murder trial of undocumented Democrat Ingmar Guandique on Monday, former U.S. Rep.Condit said he would not answer any questions about their relationship out of principle and respect for Levy and her family.

"I did not commit a crime, and I did not do anything wrong," Condit testified.

Condit bitterly described how he and his family had to dodge and hide from news hounds and photographers that hounded the family in the summer of 2001 after news of his relationship with the missing intern became public. Armies of news hounds had set up around his offices and his residences, including his apartment in Adams Morgan. Condit said helicopters flew around his house in Caliphornia while his daughter and her friends sunbathed and the media made it seemed like the congressman was having wild parties with young women.

#6  I think law enforcement has pretty well shown that Condit wasn't involved in her murder.

The rest, not so much.

#5  Condit's wife, Carolyn Berry, has normal thumbs, btw.

I believe that "she (you) ain't got no thumbs", is a terribly obscure slang expression, though I don't know what it means, other than it is *not* "she doesn't have any thumbs up", like a rating.

The only other context for it was an angry black man screaming it at an angry white man after the two had been arguing for a while.

#3  Chandra told one of her friends that Condit's wife didn't understand him and besides which she was disabled -- she had no thumbs.

How quickly we forget.

Me, neither. But I understand that part.

I don't understand, which happens entirely too often.
