Thank the Gods. Now all we have to anticipate is her book deal, reality TV show, endless appearances on talk shows, the subsequent devolution into hard core pr0n and the inevitable line of blow-up dolls.
Well we actually managed to not post a story on this until after the not guilty verdict --- of which I am proud we ignore this.
I must admit however, I was stunned to read she was found not guilty this morning. Of course she was found guilty of the most egregious of crimes---lying to agents of the government. I really thought the evidence against her was damning. I guess the jury saw it different.
