yeah, that's right, who's found a long bridge now??? eh? I'd say that's a bridge too far over the river Mekong, that's what I'd sa.... er, never mind.
Six,
lol....Thank you for the poem.
There is nothing quite as ugly as a self-righteous mob hunting for the gizzards of the person they wish to be....except maybe Michael Moore in leotards.

Come on now Hillary, six...You know I would like to be a lot of things...but not her. I am thinking that is possibly how a lot of people feel. I just think she should not get off so easy. That is not real life. I see all she has access to and wish she would use it for a something of better substance. I think I would like nothing better for her to have a little time to think and get it straight before they burn her up...the people who use her, and perhaps she can add some back to all that goes on with the earth.
Think of all she could do for the good of humankind. Then she would be admired for all she accomplished and not just messes she gets into. That is just me. I think it is a bit sad. I don't begrudge her silly stuff, I just would like to see her delve deeper...you know. Maybe a bit of serious stuff and actual consequences would do a little good. Ot at least one can hope. Heck I just don't think there should be laws that change for the rich. Justice should not be so slanted. IMO
And she is famous because?????????????
Ok what happen to her HAIR? Did they give her a jailhouse haircut?
OMG!!! Its not like she got a life sentence. Its not even a month. I betcha she will be out again before the 28 days is over.
Personally, I feel a little bad for her but then on the other hand this is one of those hard lessons in life. A person with money should not be exempt from the law. If it was anyone else, they would have to serve their time.
How I love realist's!
For Lords sakes why not just leave the mutt in peace?
In some ways I am sensing in the moral outrage and public blood-letting that is going on, overtones of the ridiculous global hysteria that prevailed when Princess Diana died . Everybody who had ever lost someone close to them in death transferred their grief, past and present, into this one public personna and wept like babies with itchy nappies.
Here we have a spoiled, semi-educated little rich girl, with a sort of manufactured beauty, whom everybody hates because they are jealous of her and would sell themselves like $5.00 hookers to have what she has if given a chance. The public outrage visited on her for acting like the dumb-ass she obviously is, seems affected and manufactured in the face of pure green envy.
Don't you think all this a bridge too far?
Switch off your TV's and mow the lawn.

I agree, I hope this teachers her a huge lesson. But OMG is Right . . . It was only a 23 day sentence when she turned her self in this past week. And from what I hear they were protecting her in their, she had her own cell. And the spoiled little rich girl couldn't hack it. Come on! I fault the parents for the way she is though. And I must say I am in no way jealous of her and her money. If I got busted for DUI I'd be so remorseful. I would be so sorry and accept whatever punishment given me. I am so lucky that I've never hurt anyone or myself by drinking and then driving. Now that I'm older I am much more responsible. This girl really needs to mature and take some responsibility for her actions.
If anyone of us here was sentenced to jail, we'd have to serve it. It should be no different for the rich and famous. Jail is stressful? Duh! It is for everyone, I'm glad they sent her back, make her serve her time I say. Make her think next time she drinks and reaches for those keys.
Wow awesome news, hehe. Serves her damn well right the spoilt rich tart. Maybe Justice isn't such an ass at times after all.
Going to jail to serve a sentence is one thing but having been released form jail it is not fair to then send Hilton back to jail. And all because the LA law court and the sheriff can't get their act together. Don't they have phones in America?
Their act of incompetence has caused her a lot more grief than was necessary. People that are pleased to see her suffer will welcome this but it not a just and fair way to run a penal system.
It is the sort of blunder we have come to expect from simple minded people like Bush. Perhaps incompetence is a requirement for holding official office in the USA? Which makes me wonder who the real criminals are?
