David Blunkett, the Labour Home Secretary for the UK is proposing that innocent people wrongly convicted of crimes and being forced to spend time in jail should have to pay for the food and lodging they recieve! The article, We locked you up in jail for 25 years and you were innocent all along? That�ll be �80,000 please details this idiot's ideas to make some money by charging people for jail time even though there is no way they could be generating any income while incarcerated and they will effectively go into debt to pay for the pleasure of being locked up wrongly.
There is so much wrong with this stupidity that I don't even know where to start.
My comment on MetaFilter was to ask how long it was going to take ShrubCo to try and blame the idea on Kerry. Since, if you ask a GOP screech monkey, everything that's gone wrong in the last few years is John Kerry's fault even though George Bush has been the president. Truly the depths of the GOP's underestimation of the intelligence of the people is appalling at best. But then, they are not going for truth or honest, they're going for confusion and dishonesty to smear Kerry.
And, as they get more and more desperate, their efforts will take on ever greater leaps of logic that even their most hardened and loyal supporters will have to be able to see the gaps and lies.
