Interesting op-ed snippet from Friday's WSJ...
The Polanski Hypocrisy - WSJ.com

I especially liked the irony in the last paragraph:

"Perhaps the only group more incoherent than the cinematic community in its reaction has been Polish officials. Mr. Polanski, who was born and raised in Poland, has received much support from his countrymen. In an irony evidently lost on Polish bureaucrats, government ministers of the Civic Platform Party began protesting Mr. Polanski's arrest on Saturday, one day after their government successfully passed a law making chemical castration mandatory for pedophiles in cases involving victims under 15.
Now there's a thought."
