The Huffington Post has made it crystal clear where it stands on the news that director Roman Polanski may have to answer for his 31-year-old crime of child rape: Move on, everyone. Nothing to see here. Keep on directing, Roman. Love ya!
The popular liberal site has posted numerous essays since news that Polanski was arrested in Switzerland broke over the weekend, each arguing vehemently against the Oscar winners persecution.
...
But HuffPo readers arent buying it. And boy, are they angry.

Looks like a job for Chris Hansen
Hell, if I heard right, even the nearly unanimous panel of
THE VIEW was divided on this.
Roman Polanski’s a dumbass. If he had just served his time back in the 70s and 80s, rather than fleeing the country, he’d be out by now.
I wonder how many of them are regular visitors to the Glenn Beck raped a child site.
Thirteen years old. And he met the mom, etc. He knew she was 13 and he buggered her. Imagine had it been Bush, or like someone wrote yesterday, “Father Polanski” Catholic priest.
Obviously, there is a schism here.
Racists feel that actions have consequences, if you rape a child - you should be punished. Whether you are famous, or not, has no bearing on either your crime, nor your punishment.
The ‘Enlightened Liberals’ feel that if you are a regular person, then you should go to jail or get a good ‘talking to’ for raping a child; but if you are famous then there is no crime. The child should consider herself lucky to have been blessed with the unwanted attentions of the famous person.
Polanski is a fugitive from justice. He plead guilty and skipped town during the sentencing phase. He needs to do his time.
Whoopi is an idiot that should return to her former job of working as a makeup artist at a mortuary and ... STFU!!!!
The Left wants no restrictions on sex. They can’t even figure out what rape is. There is a reason, Whoopi, why many states have laws saying that taking advantage of ANYONE when they are intoxicated constitutes rape. It is particularly glaring with the person is 13 years old.
Liberals are like bad debate team members who feel compelled to defend any deviant issue and never realize the damage that they do.
The Huffington Post has made it crystal clear where it stands.............................. Where is the surprise? I bet they’re OK with 13 year old prostitutes too. They’re OK with even providing them with a house via ACORN.
Who'd a thunk it eh?
But Ariana? I thought she drove her husband to homosexuality, not that she was a tuity-fruity herself ~ with a penchant for the kiddies ~ well, guess I was wrong on that.
I figure this will be the end of Huff-Po ~ and who's "Po"? Somebody's pet or a 3-year old maybe?
Goes to show that we have long been correct in calling them LibTARDS.
time for Moms and Dads and other relatives to handle the sexual deviates ... since the people hired to put these people out of business don’t see a problem with ruining a child
A real leftist is debased at the center. How else can you really justify hiring (a politician) to steal from one person what they earned honestly to give it to someone that YOU have decided is deserving? They frame it as helping the poor, but no matter how you slice it, it is THEM deciding how to spend money someone else earned. Just because they spend it for “good” doesn’t change the basic reality. If I rob a bank and give the money to charity, keeping some of it for the purposes of administration, it is still not okay.
The idiots at HuffPo ought to try reading the transcript of the girl’s testimony.
Anyone who can justify what that pervert did is just as sick as he is.
According to what I heard on Fox News yesterday, it was Polanski and his lawyers that initiated this latest round when they sought to have the charges dropped. Los Angeles felt that the fact that he FLED JUSTICE and especially after having PLED GUILTY, it was a bit much to ignore and renewed their efforts. Stupid man and lawyers but then I repeat myself.
Vigilantism occurs when those we appoint to do certain jobs fail in doing those jobs and the populace gets fed up.
And Whoopi’s not a LESBIAN lesbian...
How did that particular rumor start? Because, as far as I know, Glenn isn't sitting in prison with his unit chopped off.
She sidelines as a Biden speech writer.
I should have been more clear: she merely looks like one.
Actually “Enlightened Liberals” feel that if you are a famous conservative or Republican you should be punished and your reputation destroyed. If you are a famous liberal or Democrat there is no need for punishment. In fact the act enhances one’s reputation for creativity and understanding.
Imagine had it been... Father Polanski Catholic priest.
Violence against women.........priceless.
And it was anal rape BTW.
Investigate [Louisiana Senator] Vitter, legal group is told. His "crime," being on a madam's list [and being Republican].
HUffie Alert!
And,,,,, as a poster in the comments section reminds us
“Polanski has a track record of pedophile rape with young girls.
Samantha Gailey was THIRTEEN when he drugged and RAPED her.
Nastassja Kinski was FIFTEEN when he RAPED her.”
I’d forgotten those..........
Technically, it was both. He was vaginally raping her when she pleaded that she was not on the pill, desperate to stop him. He switched to her anus. What a MENSCH!
These liberals need to ask themselves this question: Would they be so quick to forgive Polanski if it was THEIR OWN DAUGHTER THAT HE RAPED?
But then maybe they would since a majority of liberals are homos and degenerates anyway.
While he is a Golum.
“A man who drugs a 13 year old girl and has sex with her is not a rapist anymore.”
Well, not according to Whoopi Goldberg. I always wonder how people like her would feel if the victim had been their daughter/grand-daughter/niece...
Liberal elites are always ready to excuse ANYTHING of the other liberal elites.
But, she is an IDIOT idiot, or a MORON moron if you prefer.
A LIBERAL ELITE that drugs a 13 yr old girl & rapes her is not a rapist, according to the left.
They will excuse ALL behaviors of their own [self-perceived] elite class.
Guess they’re finally getting the stars out of their eyes and realizing that liberalism is elitism, and they’re the serfs.
Actually it was not merely “statutory rape” or “molestation.” It was honest forcible rape. He drugged the girl. She resisted physically. He forced his way with her. He got an actual conviction on “”lesser charges.” He merited to be shot by her daddy.
I happened to catch the first few minutes of the View this morning. The very first words out of her mouth was her reading from the teleprompter, walking her statement back. She said she didn't mean it how people are taking it - which of course is BS. I saw the tape, and she certainly meant it the way I took it.
She did read off the charges that Polanski was initially indicted on. "Rape by use of drugs" and "Sodomy" (which got a little groan from the audience) were two of the charges she read. She then recounted how the original charges were dismissed in lieu of a plea bargain to a lessor charge.
Of course, what she nor anyone pointed out was that the plea was negotiated to keep the 13 year-old girl from testifying in open court - again, she'd already recounted her ordeal to the Grand Jury. This is not at all uncommon, even now, to plea bargain rape cases involving children, if only to spare the children more grief. If Polanski plead guilt to his plea bargain agreement today, he would be registered as a life-long sex offender. That's how serious "sex with a minor child" is, despite Whoopi's protestations to the contrary.
I don’t understand the support for this troll bait. He raped a 13 year old girl and Sigourney Weaver is on the radio saying “We are really trying hard to help Roman, a wonderful human being, from this terrible situation”. sic
Terrible situation?
I have not read one iota of reasoned support for Polanski.
He drugged and raped a 13 year old.
Many of them, yes.
And then he compounded the error by breaking a federal law when he ran to avoid prosecution and sentencing for a major crime.

Frag! I like Sigourney. Changing my mind rapidly over this dumbass statement of hers though.
Hey Sigourney, even Xenomorphs with acid-for-blood wouldn't do this to a 13 year old girl. Get your head right.
You have it exactly right, sir. After all, if the fundamental premise of the Left is that your life doesn’t belong to you, but rather to the State or your neighbor next door, then all else follows from that.
Denial of the worth of individual life opens the floodgates of control to whatever particular demon of desire chooses to ride you at that particular moment.
It’s how we arrive at politicians whose cold-eyed justification of the murder of the unborn simply isn’t open to question without charges of hate and intolerance blown back in your direction with the very hate and intolerance with which they brand you.
The point of all this is that the worldview of the Left is fundamentaly evil. And if you think it through, this is precisely why they resort to the most transparent sort of sophistry and pretzel logic to deny the very existence of evil.
secular humanist liberal ethics of permissiveness and psychology of self-actualization
Debra Winger came out in support of Polanski the other day as well in a press conference. These people are real hardcore trash.
WHOOPI GOLDBERG: “It’s not RAPE rape...”
Yes, I am waiting for some liberal to say that it would be perfectly OK for Polanski to drug and rape one of the Obama daughers... Afterall, he is so, so talented!
But, that would be racist...
