GENEVA (AP) - A Swiss court granted Roman Polanski bail on Wednesday, accepting $4.5 million to allow him to remain under house arrest at his chalet. The director will stay in prison for up to 10 days while the Swiss government decides whether to appeal.
old lady
Many years ago if something like this went on the men in the town would take care of it. Ooo I long for the old days.
Moonraker
Young Lady, the're not as many MEN around today as years before. And you are right, it would be dealt with locally. Too many are feminized. We need the good-old-days !

Well after all "its not RAPE RAPE". Thank you Whoopi that line will never get old.

Please help the cause and spread the word.
2010....The year that starts the clean-up in Washington, DC
2012…The year we take our country back

Bring him here and put him in any prison in the U.S. Prison justice has a nasty way of fitting the crime, and I hear prisoners don't think highly of child molesters. He won't last a week.

I noticed most people are saying he is being accused of having sex with a 13 yr. old instead of saying rape. More PC, Don't people ever learn? Next thing, the will say they will not extradite him, if holder doesn't show any concern over the matter, he won't be extradited. Holder shows more concern that the terrorists have a nice stay and get their voices heard.
GingerSnaps
Polanski should rot in jail. If he were just a regular person he would have been there years ago. This admin is only worried about going after people who disagree with their policies.
angryfreeman
No one trusts him with anything, Why not let him live out the rest of his days in a spiderhole in Hollywood.
NotsoSilent
Hey he could be Obamas new Sex Czar.........Right alongside that goofy jerk who is the safe schools Czar.....
Moderate
d'RavenFor someone claiming you are a moderate, you seems to be more of a dimwit. This is Obama's presidency, he either take responsibility for it and stop bashing Bush, who is already part of history or be called out for his mishandling everything
You want him to take responsility for a court decision in another country? I think you just pointed out who the dimwit is.

What if American's voted with our spiritual conscience?

I bet he is already back in France as I type this. The Swiss must have known if they released him on bail that his friends would get him back into that toilet they call france,where he will be welcomed back like some kind of national hero.

I BET THE COUNTY HOPES HE FLEES SO THEY CAN KEEP THE 5 MILL

Obama will give him cover. Woopi Goldburg and Harrison Ford will also take care of this pedophile/rapist. How about it Gloria Steinem ?
Moderate
OK, I know that the unwritten law on this site is that everything bad that has ever, or will ever happen is Obama's fault. But, at least try to make some kind of connection. I just don't get how this is his fault
Jim in JAX
Here is your connection....Where is Eric Holder on this? His job is to enforce the laws of the US. Polanski is a convicted criminal fleeing sentencing in Europe. Why haven't Holder and his boss made any effort whatsoever to get Polanski back in the US to serve his time???

Who said it obama's fault ? Polunski is Hollyweed and are Ford, Goldbug, Altman and the likes. obama is worshiped by and in tight with them. Do you think they wont use influnce in this case if it actually come here? He might use holder to do his dirty work as he is currently doing.

only 40 comments on this. it's been on here for days. guess folks don't care anymore. that is a real shame.
PK in California
So he can run again and use France for protection.
Palin2012
If you could read the full article you would find he was given a free pass by the judge 30 years ago. If keeping the charges on the books, keeps him out of the country THATS GREAT!
Batters56
I hate to say this but isn't the same largely true in the states. That the rich can afford the bail for even the most serious of crimes?
M13 Link There Are No Moderate Democrats
He will walk on the $4.5 Mil bail- no big deal for this child rapist. His friends will whisk him across the border back into France. He will receive a hero's welcome by the french. The Swiss never really intended to hand him over to America anyhow. Even if he came back here and was sent to prison for drugging sodomy and rape of a 13 year old child- O-Bow-Ma would pardon him as he exits the white house in 2012.
d'Raven
The next child that Polanski will be having a fun activities with will be 12. Far-left loons now, will kick their children out of the house at a very tender age of 12.
Maine-iac
Where is he in jail??? Vermont?? Pathetic. Government failing to protect the public again....still!
NotsoSilent
Now Whoppi can fly to Switzerland for a little talk on Rape-Rape with her favorite pervert...........
Learn 2 Swim
Well all of the liberal supporters of child molestors will be thrilled!
MI Transplant
What are the Swiss thinking? He fled the US while waiting for sentencing! Do they really think he won't run again? $4.5 million is nothing to this guy. But, our current government won't push the Swiss to hold on to him. The right loves Hollywood to much to try to bring one of them to justice.
d'Raven
I'll bet you my bottom dollar that the stimulus paid for the major part of the bail, approximately 75% of it.
Ken in Atlanta
He will be teaming up with Letterman soon.

Laura Bush got away with murder, what of it? Are you really surprise that the rich get away with crimes that would land the rest of us in jail?

Easy on the medical marajuana there bunky, your gonna fall off the toilet

Laura Bush what?!..never mind you stupid mothafaka

Drunk so early on Thanksgiving Day??? Shameful.

10 days in a swiss prison????????? I bet thats really rough, internet, child porn, great food, skiing,....why the hell would he ever want to leave..Swiss prison? Hey Roman you want the window seat for dinner......Now put him in San Quentin, Old Folson, or one of California's other prisons and I bet he is a war bride within a week, Oh Roman is that your soap on the shower floor????
reapeal_the_17th-amendment
I think he needs to go to prison for RAPE not "having sex with" a 13 year old like the media says. They refuse to call it what it is, RAPE!!. He needs to be put in a cell with Bubba so that Bubba can do to him what he did to this young girl
Delores CH WV
4 MILLION DOLLAR BRIBE TO GET HIMSELF BACK TO FRANCE! THIS IS HOW YOU GET OUT OF A FOREIGN JAIL.....IT IS THE MONEY STUPID......PAYOFF TO THE SWISS.

Money Is the Root of All Evil, this is one point that proves it.

Oops! My bad, I thought the article read "Polanski Granted Balls".

The Swiss will always take money over justice. Look at your history of WW?II with Hitler. How do you think all the gold, money, and art ended up on the Bahnhoff strasse? Why do you think Hitler never invaded Switzerland. He brokered a deal wth the Swiss for safe harboring of all the money, art, and gold....
The Swiss aren't stupid..... They are still neutral, untouchable, and manipulate the rest of the world.....

they are cowards like genevaman

He will be in France within a week.

Meanwhile, in other news, Seals will be tried for capturing a terrorist and giving him a bloody lip in the process. The world has forgotten fhe meaning of "justice".
