On a lighter note - mind candy for another bad day
Martha Stewart's new show debuted today and I am watching it. I am not a Martha fan, but I empathize with her since her railroading at the hands of the mad dogs in bushco.

Its a new and somehow more humbled Martha.

She's interacting (quite comforably) with ordinary people.

I think I could like the new Martha.

I guess the prison stint had an effect on her.

1. Prison stint???
Country Club stint might be more apt.

3. Would YOU like to go to that country club?
I'll say it again. If she'd been male and/or repukelican she'd never have been charged, much less imprisoned.

4. As opposed to PRISON....
Without a shadow of a doubt, YES.

5. I'm a bit confused (not a flame)
Are you saying that you think she should have gone to a higher-security prison? Or do you object to the existence of different levels of prisons for different risk-level offenders?

Personally, as much as I laugh about 'Club Fed', I think that prisoners should be placed in the least onerous conditions appropriate and given as many opportunities to improve their lives as possible. I would no more want Martha at San Quintin than I would want Manson at Danbury...
