Paris Hilton

Brian Williams called it a colossal failure. Uh, ya think!?

And from Letterman last night ...

... Our long national nightmare is over. Paris Hilton is out of prison …
... She was in prison for five days. Hell she wasn’t in there long enough to sober up ...
... Five days in a celebrity prison. Not exactly the Shawshank Redemption ...
... She was released for medical reasons and she gave the warden several notes from doctors. Dr. Jackson. Dr. Grant. Dr. Franklin ...
... It’s not a free ride from here on out. She’s on house arrest and by God that’ll teach her. Her world has now been reduced to a four-acre estate in Bel Air ...

Good grief ... My jaw dropped yesterday afternoon when the news broke -- and man did it break; suddenly nothing, nothing else mattered in the world -- that Paris had been released from jail and allowed to spend the rest of her sentence at home ... Home!?! At her billion-dollar, 400-room carnival of a house. Riiiiiiiiiiight. And for health reasons. Riiiiiiiiiiight.

Then, hearing this afternoon that she had been sent back to jail, and seeing the clips of insane news camera people and paparazzi chasing after her ride. And the shots of her crying like baby... Priceless.

A few of my favorite cartoons from the week ...
