Roamin' Polanski

Ken presents an argument from Société des Auteurs et Compositeurs Dramatiques, which I found appalling, amusing, and not surprising.

Ken does a fine job discussing the merits, and assumptions, of the Société.

And, as we should all see clearly, this is an excellent opportunity. All we need now is persuade Dick Cheney to make a trip to Switzerland. I know! The SACD can offer to give him an award.....

I'm going to add Popehat to my daily reading list. Nonetheless, important points were missed. Switzerland is described as a "neutral country"? I thought that phrase meant "not committed to making war," not "sanctuary for any sort of criminal."

SACD claims the "extradition ... will take away his freedom." No, SACD, it's the rape and the pleading guilty thereto that takes away the freedom. The arrest and extradition are incidentals.

Maybe the best part of this saga is the professional feminist, Peg Yorkin, saying "It's bad a person was raped. But that was so many years ago... Let it go."
