		<description>I just wonder if it had been &quot;Father Polanski&quot; who raped and sodomized a 13 year old if we&#039;d have so much &quot;progressive love&quot;.</description>

		<description>As to Whoopi Goldberg&#039;s comment...I don&#039;t care if there is a lesser charge made, I know enough that what RP did to the girl was a horrific crime and he deserves everything that could possibly be given to him (and in my opinion, even more).  So I don&#039;t care if it wasn&#039;t &quot;rape-rape&quot;. - That is a distinction so crass as to warrant a spitball in the face (along with anyone else -white or black or asian or whoever - who tries to make that argument).

As far as the victim now saying leave RP alone...well, RP owes a debt to society, which transcends the victim.  That is the consequence of breaking the law and being convicted of a crime.  She can forgive him, sure, and anyone else can do the same, but in order to maintain a society, debts for wrongdoing must normally be paid back to said society (I do understand that exceptions *can* be made, and sometimes should be, but this is not one of those exceptions).  Consider that RP fled without paying the debt:.  He still owes, and now with interest.  Just think if you tried to not pay your income taxes.  You get charged interest.  Same should go for this sick dude with beaucoup prison time for trying to beat the rap.  I have little sympathy for perverts who prey on young children.  Unfortunatly that seems to be the people that Hollywood admires.  The longer I watch the Hollywood cesspool, the more I want to avoid their products and let them wallow in their muck.  They aren&#039;t worth supporting, regardless of their &quot;art&quot; or their talent. Don&#039;t get me wrong, I really like movies, and tv, but listening to these &quot;elites&quot; defend RP makes me want to throw up.

I am sorry to read that Harrison Ford also signed the petition.  If true, then that&#039;s another one that I think I will start to boycott, along with, now, Pitt, Clooney, Damon, Affleck, Goldberg, Eckhart (for that &quot;Raghead&quot; movie), Redford (for the sick Sundance Film Festival alone), and many more.  These clowns (and I am being polite, but believe me, it&#039;s an effort) are not worth my money.

They can make their choice to honor the despicable, but I will not then honor *them*.  GWB said that if you harbor terrorists, then essentially, you are one.  Well, same goes here: If they defend RP for this, then they are just the same in my eyes.  I can do better than support Hollywood mansion-trash.</description>

		<description>Gary, Gary, Gary, I can sense the wind has dropped out of your sails. You feel beaten, it&#039;s clear, and it&#039;s common among your classmates around here. Several of them feel the same way - puffed up and positive when it starts only to realize they don&#039;t have what it takes to follow through against a simple mix of truth, justice and the American way.  You have comfort in company. You and Delia and misanthropicus can discuss the epistemology of anal rape as seen through the lens of Buber&#039;s I-Thou (or for those of you with more, shall we say &quot;priestly inclinations, Merton&#039;s Confessions of a Guilty Bystander. Perhaps you should invite goy.

		<description>N&amp;T:

&quot;I&#039;m Jewish&quot;

Right, a self-loathing one like Ahmedinejad, what of it?  By the way, when&#039;s the last time you were in shul?

&quot;You’re like a turd only smellier&quot;

Yep, that&#039;s the funniest one you&#039;ve come up with.</description>

		<description>210. Gary Rosen:

Don&#039;t be jealous just because my jokes are funnier and more clever than yours. What can I say, I&#039;m Jewish, I have a head start. Not to say that just being Jewish makes you funny. (And thank you for so graciously volunteering to be a case in point.) You need practice in the art of humor. You haven&#039;t been perfected yet, as Miss Coulter suggests you need to be. Take it up with her. She has no sense of humor either.

(cue GR . . . &quot;You&#039;re like a turd only smellier.&quot;</description>

		<description>204. Concerned4all:
&quot;Even Sharon Tate, the sister of a woman that was violently murdered stood up for this little piece of excrement.&quot;

Two things. First, conservative scat alert, right on cue. Amazing. Second, it was Sharon Tate who was murdered.  Unless she&#039;s her own sister, which I recognize is a distinct possibility among the inbreeding conservative movement, but not so much among REAL Americans.</description>

		<description>198. Ron:
&quot;I realize that BOTH parties are afraid to confront the deficit LBJ started with the Vietnam War.&quot;

Ron, Ron, Ron . . . You can&#039;t point to a previous president and suggest he had ANYTHING to do with a fractured economy, just ask anyone here. Besides, if you know anything at all about the economy in the 1960s, you know it was all Barney Frank&#039;s fault. 

205. Delia:
&quot;September issue: Anal rape is the new black.&quot;

More cop fantasies from Real Housewife of Smallville.

206. Gary Rosen:
I require both hands, but you wouldn&#039;t know what that&#039;s like. 

Come on, people. Quit looking in your high school yearbooks for inspiration.</description>
