You see, it might seem like a free leonard now, but then you have to feed him, and pay for a sitter when you're out of town... the costs add up. Thanks, Elise.
The Leonard referred to here is Leonard Peltier, who some believe was falsely convicted of various charges because FBI agents lied under oath n stuff like that.
I say, if you don't like having a government that locks up people on trumped-up charges, why don't you go live in Russia. :)
Greg, perhaps it's politi-speak, you know where you try to please all the people.... That way they can claim to be for freeing the guy to the people that want that, and ALSO be for keeping him on the ankle bracelet.
Please send your submissions via email to bethanykeeley (at) gmail.com. I look at them all, but it might take a while to get to yours -- sorry! I love you all, but I only have so much energy in a day.
If you want your picture to make the blog DO NOT @tweet them, or leave them in a comment. I need them all in the same place. Make sure your emails are easily distinguishable from spam or viruses (I use gmail web interface, so images get previews).
I don't usually post the following: newspaper headlines, personal email, craigslist postings, unprofessional websites. I also tend to not crosspost things from other blogs, since I have so much unique material waiting for me to get to it.
Things I see a lot: silica gel "do not eat"; hair dryer labels; inside the bus "do not drill"; Wal-mart sign about IDs; coffee machine with "2" cup sizes; employees must "wash hands"; that failblog post.

So they are proposing limited freedom? Maybe house arrest for the next twenty years.

I wouldn't have him even at a discount.
You can release him from prison, but people will still believe he's guilty, like with O.J. Simpson. In that sense, he will never be free.
Your welcome.
Regardless of politi-speak, I LOVE Bethany's comments on this one. How DO you do it?!
A fan,
Karen
