Hollywood Unites to Defend Polanski
by John NoltePleading guilty to unlawful sex with an underage girl — the drugging, raping and sodomizing of a 13 year-old — isn’t stopping Hollywood from ginning up an indignation campaign over the possibility of fugitive director Roman Polanski being held accountable for his crimes. Yes, these are the values of those who control the most powerful propaganda device ever created. Which begs a question: If his unspeakable deed doesn’t meet the standard, what exactly would Roman Polanski have to do in order to become a pariah in this town … I mean, besides vote for Sarah Palin?
My favourite part of the below story is Patrick Goldstein of the LA Times questioning the ethics of the LA district attorney for extraditing Polanski “at a time of severe state-wide budget cuts.”
Now the Left worries about government spending! This reckless, out of control, bringing-child-rapists-to-justice spending must stop!
Maybe I’m just a simplistic right-winger but everything stops for me upon learning a child was raped. That doesn’t mean we don’t eventually examine judicial misconduct or government spending, but only after we throw away the key.

There is no question as to weather or not this Paedophile Scum, Drugged,Raped and Sodomized a child,a 13 year old Girl, he pleaded GUILTY to these charges.
I guess in the world of “new age” “progressive elitists” “Hollywood Idiots” “all cultures, values, beliefs, behaviours are equal” and of course “who are we to judge” this Paedophile of theirs, who has been forced to live in exile all these years, all because of some silly law against Drugging Raping and Sodomizing Children,that they are all so enamoured with and proud of, has not done anything wrong at all.
Thankfully these members of the various “Jugglers and arse clowns unions” are not completely running the legal system and their Paedophile Comrade and like thinker, hopefully, will be finally subjected to the laws of the civilized society he so wickedly and appallingly violated.
Hooray for Hollywood !!!!!!……..
Could someone tell me why though?
Top film-makers rally around Polanski

INTERNATIONAL film-makers rallied around Roman Polanski as the Oscar winner fights US moves to extradite him from a Swiss prison over a 1977 child sex case.
The arrest of the Polish-French director as he arrived in Switzerland at the weekend to attend the Zurich film festival has also drawn outrage from the Governments of Poland and France.
More than 70 film industry figures signed a petition calling for Polanski's release, including Michael Mann, Wim Wenders and Pedro Almodovar.
"Filmmakers in France, in Europe, in the United States and around the world are dismayed by this decision," said the petition.
The French consul general Jean-Luc Faure-Tournaire, who visited Polanski in a Swiss prison yesterday, said he was being "well treated".
"He thanks the many people who have shown support through the press and public opinion," the consulate said in Zurich.
Swiss authorities say they are waiting for an extradition request from the United States over a 1977 case in which he admitted having sex with a 13-year-old girl.
Los Angeles prosecutors confirmed they would file a warrant seeking Polanski's return to the United States, noting they had 40 days to prepare it.
But Polanski's French lawyer Herve Temime said the director rejected any prospect of extradition.
"Given the extravagant circumstances of his arrest, his Swiss lawyer will ask without delay for him to be released, possibly under certain conditions," Temime said.
Kouchner said he was working with Polish counterpart Radek Sikorski to help Polanski and that they had jointly written to US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to ask for the charges to be dropped.
"This affair is frankly a bit sinister. Here is a man of such talent, recognised worldwide, recognised especially in the country where he was arrested. This is not nice at all," Kouchner told France-Inter radio.
But the State Department said it would not wade into the row.
Polanski fled the United States in 1978 before sentencing on a charge of unlawful sexual intercourse with a minor.
He has never returned, even missing the Oscar award for "The Pianist" in 2003.
Temine said Polanski visits Switzerland often and owns a chalet in Gstaad where he spent three months this year.
Switzerland says Polanski is being held under an international alert issued by the United States in 2005.
As Polanski can launch several appeals, a final extradition decision could take weeks or months, legal experts said.
The Los Angeles Times said Polanski's lawyers may have sparked the arrest by claiming that Los Angeles prosecutors had never sought to extradite him in 30 years.
It cited two unidentified sources familiar with Polanski's case as saying that court motions filed in July by defence lawyers had suggested prosecutors were not serious about capturing him.
"Combined with the fact that no effort has been made to extradite Mr Polanski, the intent here is clear: invoke a physical absence which they caused and deliberately perpetuate in order to preserve the unconstitutional status quo and never address the misconduct head on," one motion said.
In May, a Los Angeles judge refused Polanski's bid to dismiss the underage sex case after he failed to appear in court.
Polanski's legal team argued the conviction should be annulled because the judge who heard the 1970s case had improperly colluded with prosecutors. The judge has since died.
"This affair is frankly a bit sinister. Here is a man of such talent, recognised worldwide, recognised especially in the country where he was arrested. This is not nice at all," Kouchner told France-Inter radio.
So arresting a self confessed Paedophile for drugging, Raping and Sodomizing a 13 year old child is now “sinister” because Polanski after all “….is a man of such talent, recognised worldwide, recognised especially in the country where he was arrested.”
Well he does have a talent for Raping and Sodomizing a young girl,I guess that’s a talent his supporters and cheer squad feel is much,much nicer than the American legal system that is demanding he return to America,and this time stay in the country long enough to suffer his sentence for his filthy acts of betrayal against a child.
