In an blockbusting EXCLUSIVE interview on Dateline NBC, correspondent Matt Lauer sat down with Debra Lafave, the 23 year-old teacher who had sex with a 14 year-old boy on several occasions which made national headlines.

For some ungodly reason, NBC decided this was a groundbreaking story that needed to be told to America. I have one question…

Why is Debra Lafave on television?

There have been notable people who have earned the right to recognition. Sport’s heroes, movie stars, business and religious leaders, respected politicians and cultural groundbreakers have all proven worthy of the media attention paid to them. That is why we feel we know Michael Jordan, Jennifer Anniston, Donald Trump, Reverend Billy Graham, John McCain and Simon Cowell. They have been talented, colorful, daring, mesmerizing, dynamic, blessed and outrageous! But, they have not broken the law, are not mentally ill and do not continue to lie and be in denial about their irresponsible behavior... [more at CaliforniaRepubic]

Because she's as fine as a pad of butter on a HOT pancake! Thats why!

And because Katie's ratings are tanking, and they didn't get her on the show...

Opps, CBS Evening News with Katie Couric...

Sorry, I forgot...

Could it be because she is every high school boy's number one fantasy since school was invented?

I dunno, either, all my teachers looked like Helen Thomas when I was 14.

You got the good-looking ones!

Maybe not James "boastful, passionate, whispering, masculine kind of love." McGreevey.

Just a hunch. ;)

So many of us Old Farts look back fondly at our schooldays, for many reasons. However, when I concentrate on the female teacher aspect of my education, all I get is visions of Helen Thomas.............AAAGGHHHHH..MAKE IT STOP!!!!!!!!!!!!

Had Debra pulled this crap in the generation I grew up in, she would not be under house arrest with an ankle bracelet; she would be in prison no matter how good-looking she is in the eyes of the world.

That's not true. If this happened in the 1950's or 1960's, it would have all been swept under the rug like the Catholic Bishops in the US tried to do w/ the child sex abuse scandals going on under their nose.

She might have been run out on a rail but more likely, most of the people would have thought "boys will be boys" and wouldn't have considered the boy damaged by this at all. She certainly would not have been prosecuted. The fact that she even got house arrest shows that our society actually has gotten more strict about prosecuting sex crimes against children.

Apparently, if you go by #9's post, minor thinking ability and simple decency goes too. :(

true statement. She's beautiful, but totally unbalanced.

You just gotta wonder what is up with a gal who looks like that who picks a 14 yo boy rather than some one her own age. Surely she could have her pick of any number of the over 21 crowd, many of whom would gladly cover her expenses.

Instead, she's off for some well deserved jail time. If that boy was 16 or 17, I'd have a lot more sympathy, but not 14. What a waste. What an idiot. Can you imagine her parents right now? Lovely day for them, I'll bet.
