<p>There were no cell phones in 1977</p>
<p>In today’s Los Angeles Times there is an article updating the French Cultural Minister’s supportive stand on Polanski. Seems that the Minister, Frederic Mitterrand, wrote an autobiographical novel, called My Terrible Life…I believe. In it he details his sex with Thai underage male prostitutes. When asked to comment the Cultural Minister (who said that the book may or may not be an autobiography) said that there is a difference between homosexuality and pedophiles.</p>
<p>Sarkozy has no comment.</p>

<p>Last I checked, avoiding taxes is perfectly legal. Otherwise, tax lawyers and accountants wouldn’t have jobs. Tax EVASION is illegal.</p>
<p>Here is a link to the LA Times article about Polanski’s victim.</p>

<p>Be warned. It is a graphic explanation from this young girl to the Grand Jury back in 1977. For those who support Polanski, I urge you to read what he did to her. And then think about if this happened to your child, if you would feel that his great artist status should allow him off the hook.</p>
<p>Gore Vidal takes the discussion to a whole new level…</p>
<p>I think it is simply yet another sign of how the media elite think they are above laws–and do our athletes and politicians act very differently? Polanski, OJ, Michael Jackson, Elliot Spitzer; Woody Allen, Bill Clinton, Newt Gingrich, Marion Barry, Jesse Jackson–all of these people think they deserve special treatment and that their fellow celebrities do, too.</p>
