The land of the free

Everyone's talking about Paris's early release from prison and how she's getting preferential treatment. Rather disgusting really. Especially when its sharing the same newspaper pages with an appeal by a former 17 year old black honours student star athlete who was sentenced to 10 years jail because a 15 year old girl performed oral sex on him at a party. He's spent 4 years in jail already for 'molestation'. (If he had have had sex with her he would have been pardoned under the 'Romeo & Juliet' clause, whatever that is. They're weird down south.) And then there's talk that Bush will pardon Libby. Sad sad sad sad sad.
