Paris Hilton 'fame' a sign of American decline

Is it any mystery how and why the United States is on the road to destruction? When does logic permit the proposed payment of $1 million to an individual who has been charged with a crime, placed on probation, who has violated this probation, and been sent to jail for this violation, to tell about her "jail experiences"? And this proposed payment to be made to someone who least needs the money.

I would suspect anyone who has committed a crime and been placed in jail would gladly tell their "story" for $1 million. Besides, who cares about Paris Hilton? She would do us all a favor if she would take her money and disappear from the face of the earth. When is enough going to be enough?

I would rather use this money to bring our soldiers home. One more soldier lost is one more too many.

All of that just to slip in a "bring the troops home" message. This letter wasn't about Paris Hilton at all, just a subterfuge to get an anti-war letter in the LTE.
