My co-worker and I were just down in the deli/vending machine area of our building, which has a TV in it that's always on. FOX News was on, and their "Breaking News Alert" (yes, they used the word "alert") was P. Hil's return to jail.

They had it as a split-screen, with one half being a helicopter view of traffic (I assume following the P. Hil convoy), and the other half being Neil Cavuto's show -- with Ann Coulter commenting on how wrong it was that P. Hil had to go to jail.

Ann Coulter was wearing a cross, which surprised me, because I thought such things would make her burst into flame.

Maybe she likes driving.

Of course, once her license was suspended, that's a stupid reason to keep on driving herself. I mean, it's at least understandable (if still wrong) if a person needs to drive to work and their license is suspended....

Wouldn't it be great to have somebody drive you around at any time, where ever you wanted to go?

I don't really like being driven (signed, Control Freak) also I am more likely to get car sick when I'm not the driver.

Having a driver on call when I want one would be pretty sweet though.

Um... why??? Does she have some "conservative" reason why PH should not be punished?

Like, for when you're drunk and/or have a suspended license?

I dunno. They (the sheriff) allowed her to go home - can't really blame her for accepting it.

Whinging and complaining, crying into the night and refusing to eat are completely within her rights. And while I'm certain political pressure was brought down on Baca by her parents and people, he should have been man enough to withstand it. Or at least wait a bloody week and gone through proper channels. Still, I don't actually believe she's earned further punishment, just the original sentence.

In other news, hey, where's ita? I was just thinking about her because my under-dress strap situation is ridiculous.

Especially in some place like Los Angeles, where you could let somebody else worry about the traffic jam?

I don't actually get one thing about that woman. I guess that's a blessing.

In addition, my brother lost his license for life. So I think having a driver would be pretty sweet. Of course, he broke the law multiple times and those are his consequences but the family has had to schlep him around for years now and it sucks.
