[Leaning Right]

I'm a tad bit confused about the let-bygones-be-bygones attitude of some folks regarding Polanski.

It's not like he forgot to pay $1000 in taxes, or anything like that. He is accused of horrific crimes against a child, and he fled the country rather than defend himself. I don't care who's pushing for Polanski's extradition. I applaud them for doing so, and I hope Polanski is brought back to this country in chains.

...horrific crimes against a child...

This is a case from the mid 70s about sex in a hot-tub involving drugs and booze. It is relevant because Obama's advisors are telling him to do something however lame to show a "strained relationship" with France. This is ALL about France, because no matter what is going on, just like the shallow, selfish cheater you remember from back in school... The one you vever thought could make it so far... Just like the subject of UNFIT FOR COMMAND and so many others who made it so far on empty promises, back-stabs and ballet maneuvers, Obama is ALL about... OBAMA.
