If there were only one pardon available, who would you give it to…Paris Hilton or Scooter Libby?

Feel free to explain the reason for your choice.

Libby. Then I would make Paris serve the time I pardoned from Libby. The image of this spoiled little rich girl crying and screaming handuffed with snot bubbles made my day! Now, go after the dimwitted sheriff that started this and hold him in comtempt and add time to her sentence for contempt becuase she knew her sentence and this may scare her anoriexic little side kick Nicole Richey and she’ll hurl herself off a tall building in protest. I am sick of all of all the Hollywood trash eating up the headlines. Good riddence to the rich spoiled s**. Her mother is a s** too. I normally don’t agree with Al Sharpton but he was dead on right about this one, no poor white persons kid or a rapper would receive the special treatment she has. Jail her the entire sentence now.

I say neither because they’re both too stupid to be running around free. Paris for obvious reasons. She’s world class in a category all her own stupid. Scooter for trusting is life to two crooks who have proven they’ll throw your behind under a bus in a split second - plus…he should be punished for being a grown man moving into his twilight years who still likes to be called “Scooter”…WT?

Not sure scooter really did anything wrong to need to be pardoned for, but that’s another story, isn’t it…

it’s about TIME someone stood up to the Hiltons and other rich/celebrity/political/whatever holier-than-thou, my-azz-don’t-stink abusers of our system and put one of the little punks in jail to serve REAL time. and no, scoop, you don’t PARDON her for being an addict, yes you pray for her and get rehab, but she knowingly flaunted her prissy little anorexic self at the law and LOST… good grief!

What happened to the Paris that was going to serve her time and then said she has learned her lesson? Oh, that’s her bawling and crying and screaming and crying for her mama. And Sports mommy, it’s not looking for Vick that the Feds are on ths case; the state of VA nor Blank can help Vick if the Feds find enough evidence and from the looks of some of the reports on the WEB, you may not be seeing Vick on the field this year. Errr prison field maybe. Several reports are saying they found a heap of evidence. Save that No. 7 jersey, it may not be around long. Jail Paris, free Libby.

Do you really think she’s withdrawing from meth? That throws a whole new wrinkle into it. I’m not saying I’m for or against her, but she seems very hysterical and perhaps should be put on suicide watch. What about the supposed rash? Couldn’t a physician treat her in jail instead of getting her released? And if the L.A. jails are so crowded, why didn’t she have a roommate? It kills me that the city attorney said, “her release after only three days erodes confidence in the judicial system.” Does ANYONE have confidence in the judicial system? This whole situation has been terribly botched and I feel like she’s been caught in the middle. If you’re going to throw someone in jail, do it and don’t jerk them around by taking them out and then back in. Boy, someone’s head’s gonna roll for this.

Are you people kidding me. You’d seriously pardon that scumbag libby? Uncovering the id of a CIA aganet directly affects the security of our country. Not to mention he then lied about it. Just another shining example of this administration’s incompetence, and the American public’s continued blind support of it. Does anybody honestly give two craps what happens to Paris Hilton? I can’t believe these two examples are even being compared. Ridiculous…

While soldiers fight and die in Iraq, while the Congress debates an immigration bill which will shape our nation for the next 100 years, and while the world’s most powerful leaders meet to discuss the future of the free world, we are transfixed to the image of a spoiled, pampered, drug addicted amateur porn actress who wouldn’t whizz on any one of us if we were on fire.

Geraldo’s a joke who ceased to be significant years ago. Someone at Fox News needs to tell him.

And for those of you who don’t know who Mumia Abu Jamal is, he’s a convicted cop killer in Pennsylvania. He killed his victim execution style with a single shot to the head.

Which brings me to my final thought for the day, directed toward the blogger known only as “E”: GFY. If I was as stupid as you, I’d use a pseudonym as well (fake name for those of you in Clayton County.)

She is a disgrace to the world, I feel sorry for her father, i guess they are not the proper socialights that they wished they were. These nasty gross screwed up little rich w** in hollywood need to be banned. Anna Nicole Smith, Paris Hilton,Nicol Richie, ALL of the women in todays entertainment, tv, hollywood are a huge disgrace to the business and the world. They are ALL worthless drug addict, alcoholic w**. They are worthless as dirt. The only female who is truly a star and has class is the blonde that won american idol and sings jesus take the wheel, other than her famous people are a huge joke.

Elaborating on what Traci said. The first person I paid attention to after all the blogs on Paris that referred to her racial slurs caught on video. Especially the slurs that her and her sister were saying while at that party and dancing to hip hop music, and Paris said “We’re like two Ni**ers or something”.

Well since she is back in jail, she might feel like one now. Ha ha.

Scooter (and who in their right mind over the age of 10 still calls themselves Scooter, especially someone who is in the West Wing) and Paris BROKE THE LAW. Both seem to have NO REMORSE. Both think that they are ABOVE THE LAW. Screaming MOMMY or WINK WINK NOD NOD to the President will not help you get out of jail, pardoned or extra points at the Pearly Gates.

There will be a huge pr backlash and nightmare for Paris, Scooter (and the President) if the get out of jail cards are handed out.

Why don’t we think of releasing those people in jail that ARE innocent. Which I think could be argued are alot of people in the have not category.

Get your facts straight, Johnny. First there was no crime committed against Plame. She was not a covert agent at the time, so no crime was committed. You can’t reveal someone who’s not hidden. Second, Libby was not convicted for such - obviously. He was convicted for committing perjury about a crime that wasn’t committed. And the prosecutor knew there was no crime before he ever talked to Libby. So get your facts straight. The media had such a heyday that somebody had to take a fall for a crime that wasn’t committed. Pardon Libby. Paris needs to get a clue about life. I say extend her “stay” to help her learn.

Ok Bill, Sharpton had nothing to do with Paris going back to jail, the judge was sending her back regardless, and anyone who knows jack about the law knows that. When I heard she had been released, I knew that she was going right back. Paris deserves what she is getting. The average joe would have easily gotten 60 days in the slammer for those charges. Thankfully she didn’t kill somebody’s loved one while she was DUI. As far as Vick goes, its funny that a “woman is raped” in Patrick Kerney’s house, while he is down the hall,supposedly sleep, yet the press and the public let that go, but Vick resides 2 states away from Virginia and everyone is focused on him, for “dog fighting”. Give me a break! Something in the air stinks. As far as Libby is concerned, he got caught in the middle, so he had to take one for the team. Neither should be pardoned. Free Genarlow!

Paris on the other hand. Has had Many a day in court - they actually had her @ the jail, and let her go home to serve he sentence laying out by her pool, having the maid bringing her CRISTAL.

If the judge explicitly said - NO ELECTRONIC MONITORING— He KNEW that if he didn’t lower the hammer on her —SHE WOULD BE BACK the Next week. HER AND HER FRIENDS.

If Ms. Hilton has a drug or alcohol problem, she can “dry out” or “detox” like the other prisoners do.

Please, people … I doubt it hurts that she’s rich and blonde (with help) and white, but this has a LOT more to do with her money than her ethnicity.

I say she should shut up, do her time and (hopefully!) think a lot about her actions (anyone really think she’ll do that, though?) and the consequences of her actions.

As for Scooter Libby? I dunno. I think he’s probably more worthy of a pardon, but still, I don’t like the idea of pardoning either of these people.

Erin,

Why should Scooter Libby be pardoned?

Scooter is a known political trickster that made it to the top. He plants stuff in the media to destroy people and then he lies about it. Sorry, he was not convicted of planting the fact that the young woman was a CIA agent which blew her cover. He was convicted of obstruction of justice. There were a lot of people associated with Richard Nixon that went to jail for just that charge.

After all , nobody died as a result of her actions …The same cannot be said of the departing chairman of the joint chiefs …How come HE’S not headed to jail ???

Its refreshing to know that Paris had her ‘get out of jail free’ card revoked. She should never have been released in the first place! This is a glaring case of corruption. The people of LA should probably be wondering what other favors the sheriff does for other prominent inmates under the guise of some exotic and non-specific illness. Libby is just an idiot. But a dangerous idiot who put the privacy and safety of a patriotic woman at risk in order to appease the Dummie Presently Occupying The White House and his minions. Both Paris and Libby are greatly deserving of their sentences. In fact, I think both sentences are extremely lenient. Pardon none and let them serve every minute of the sentences they were justly handed!

KUDOS to the judge!!! I applaud him for doing the right thing at the beginning….and today. Unfortunately, I think she is only being made an token of however - someone to hold up to the rest of Hollyweird and say, “see, this is what will happen to you if you break the law. (yeah, right)” She is so trashy & screwed up, it’s no great loss to throw her in the clink for a few weeks. If it were someone with a positive image in the media and society, I’m not sure there would have ever been any punishment other than house arrest.

That being said, I think this whole thing of her being released yesterday was nothing more than a manipulative scam on her part. I wholeheartedly believe one of her “people” planted the idea in her head that if she made enough of a pain in the rear of herself, she would be let out sooner. Bawling all night long so as to disturb the other prisoners and pressing the medical emergency call button every 20 minutes for three straight days????!!!!! It’s no wonder they kicked her to the curb.

Rest assured…once those bulls get ahold of her (and they will!), then she’ll have something to cry about, and a lot bigger troubles than a RASH.

Come on everyone. The medical condition she is going through is cold turkey detox. Plain and simple. Libby is a scumbag that should be locked up and the key thrown away.

Must we forget that she is only going to jail for 3 weeks (don’t think she won’t be out after half the sentence). That really isn’t much time and she should have gotten alot more for what she did. I mean she could have killed someone when she drove 70 in a 35 without her lights on!!!

Anyhoo, I did get a gleam in my eye hearing that Paris cry for Mom after her verdict. Her parents built an money empire of hotel, but couldn’t teach their daughter how to 1)Talk, 2)Wear underwear, 3)Get a real job (party girl is not a profession!). Guess they thought the nanny would take care of that. Demote the blonde loving sheriff, I doubt he sent home any of the other criminals for tummy aches or whatever the heck she claimed she had.

This really boils down to a punk traffic court judge looking for his 15 minutes of fame. The unfortunate thing is the taxpayers of LA are getting stuck with the bill.

Too many of you wealth envious people just don’t get it.

The thing that bothers me the most is that if it were me or you we wouldn’t get off. The rules should apply equally to all- not depending on who does or doesn’t have money and fame. If the laws were enforced equally then maybe some of these high-profile people would think twice after seeing others in regular cell blocks and not fancied up holding places.

Where are all of blacks who yesterday were whining how whites get all the preferential treatment? You people are a joke! Lose the self pity and stop blaming everyone else for your shortcomings. And to the black man that opened a business in a predominantly white neighborhood and claims that whites are racist b/c they won’t do business with him, don’t kid yourself in thinking that if a white man opened a business in the ghetto or any other predominantly black neighborhood that the same thing wouldn’t happen. Buddy, there are just as many black racists as there are white racists…lose the blinders. I think there are very few whites who dislike blacks just because they are black. It’s the laziness, the wearing pants (or any clothing) so big you’ve got to hold them up with your hand (I hear these idiots want people to think they’ve done time is the reason for this), the disrespect shown to all, the crime, the ebonics, the gold teeth, the bas** kids…I could go on and on.

A lot have people have posted about the fairness of the law and if her sentence was too harsh? Will any lawyers post about what the normal sentence is? Of course I have no idea, In my 11yrs of driving I haven’t even received a speeding ticket so I don’t know. I thought judges had discretion over the minumum and maximum. I’m sorry, she’s always seen going here and there spending money like water, but Mommy & Daddy couldn’t get her a driver during her suspension. Oh yeah that’s right, they only show up when things are really really bad for her. Too little too late. I am interested to know the law, if for anything to shut up people debating that the sentence is too harsh. Be glad the judge didn’t put her in general population okay?

Pardon Paris. 0.08 BAC on the original charge. Her size, that’s one drink. One. Legal limit was 1.0 until the Feds threatened funding cuts to roads unless the states complied. If you can’t have one “being polite” drink, prohibition is in legal effect for smaller people. To the weaving objections: Pulled over all the time for driving late at night, out of county tags, giving a black guy a ride, (Paris hater? cause just look around)… excuse given weaving. No tickets.

I wouldn’t pardon either. Paris Hilton may never had been given that sentence had she not been so stupid to drive with a suspended license after being caught DUI. Not once but twice. Remember she was filmed on Entertainment Tonight coming out of a restaurant getting into the driver’s seat and driving off. She was totally disrespectful of the law! The judge had to give her that 45 days sentence. She needs to understand that thumbing your nose at probation normally get you time behind bars. (THE ORIGINAL SENTENCE). f she ahd followed the terms of her probabtion, she probably would have had a portion of her sentence commutted.

Just ‘cause I’m angry. I-285 was 70Mph when it was built. Because FEDERAL law says, what people feel they travel safely with, is the speed assigned to that road.

Govn’t monitors the speed people travel and it becomes the speed limit. Paris goes to jail for… being a celebrity? Don’t know, don’t care. But the average speed around the 285 perimeter is mandated by Federal law at the average user speed. Olympics said around 77Mph when the speed check was done (outside auditor). Judges are supposed to prevent people from just making s** up. The original Federal limit is an Average of the people on ANYTHING, I don’t care how much money anyfuckingbody has.

GA is in disregard of Federal guidelines and procedures, direct violation, really, on the road.

I laughed my ass off when a news station actually measured the average speed on 285, they should be arrested for looking at reality.

Gee, could it possibly have ANYTHING to do with this business owner’s quality of service (or lack thereof), quality of merchandise (or lack thereof), non-competitive pricing, little / ineffective advertising of his business OR * that this business owner chose a poor, not-ideally-accessible location that is NOT convenient for his targeted potential *customers ???

Gosh, if it were any of those reasons, that means this business owner would have to take PERSONAL REPSONSIBILTY for his company’s lack of success instead of blaming “racist, white people” for not giving him money and making him wealthy in spite of him being a poor-planning businessman.
