She’s not my favorite person in the world, but I can’t help but feel a little something tender for Rosie O’Donnell these days.

Yes, she’s loud. Yes, she has made horribly stupid remarks in the past. And sure, she never really fooled me with that ‘nice’ act, but to have Tom Delay up your ass for saying out loud what a lot of Americans are thinking these days can’t be fun at all.

If you don’t spend all your time reading CNN.com and People.com like me, let me give you a quick rundown of the controversy: Delay, the former House Majority leader who resigned earlier this year under speculation of financial wrongdoings, is pissed at Rosie for a few things, but most notably, her continual questioning of the 911 tragedy. Rosie has publicly stated that she will seek “a rigorous truth” about September 11th , which basically means is that there are a lot of questions she feels have gone unanswered about the event. Delay claims that O’Donnell is blaming President Bush for the attacks, throwing conspiracy theories around and letting the ‘terrorists’ off easy.

Finally, the time has come for the founder of the Girls Gone Wild video series to face the music. CNN reports that Joe Francis has been ordered “into custody after settlement negotiations soured in a lawsuit brought by seven women who were minors when Francis’ company filmed them on Panama City Beach.”

Not surprisingly, Francis is not going quietly. The lawyers for the women claim that Francis threatened them and refused to surrender to U.S. Marshals. And to go even further, he claimed that it was a case of “judge gone wild.” Cute. Very cute play on words Joe.

The question is, will anything actually happen? Or will he just use the $29 million he makes a year from girls flashing their boobs to the camera while intoxicated to get out of this easily with a settlement? My guess is that the second of the two options will happen and Francis will escape jail time. I always figured that it was inevitable for him to get in trouble due to the amount of minors that are coerced into appearing on videos, and for the number that claim they didn’t know what they were doing, blah blah blah.

Maybe this legal scuttle will put a damper on plans for the restaurant chain. Or maybe it will simply disappear quicker than the memories of drunken girls who flash their ta-tas on video.

Should Joe Francis go to jail?

Smoke ‘em if you got ‘em I always say. The “Bong Hits 4 Jesus” case went in front of the nation’s highest court yesterday and a decision is expected soon. For those of you living in a hole, ” at issue was whether Frederick’s free-speech rights were violated and the discretion schools should be allowed to limit messages that appear to advocate illegal drug use”.

According to CNN, “Joseph Frederick, then 18, unveiled the 14-foot paper sign on a public sidewalk outside his Juneau, Alaska, high school. Principal Deborah Morse confiscated it and later suspended the young man.”

The article continues:

“The incident occurred in January 2002 just outside school grounds when the Olympic torch relay was moving through the Alaska capital on its way to the Salt Lake City, Utah, Winter Games”.

“Though he was standing on a public sidewalk, the school argues Frederick was part of a school-sanctioned event, because students were let out of classes and accompanied by their teachers.

“Morse ordered the senior to take down the sign, but he refused. That led to a 10-day suspension for violating a school policy on promoting illegal drug use”.

Sounds to me like the principal and the school board oughta load one up and pass it around. Amiright?
