You may know they've released John Hinkley from the mental facility for unsupervised visits to his parent's home on weekends. For those of you who may be too young to remember, John Hinckley shot President Ronald Reagan to impress the actress Jodie Foster. This is such a nice letter from the President:
THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON, D. C.
Mr. John Hinckley St. Elizabeth's Hospital Washington, D. C.
Dear John: Laura and I hope that you are continuing your excellent progress in recovery from your mental problems. We were pleased to hear that you are now able to have unsupervised visits with your parents. The staff at the hospital reports that you are doing fine.
I have decided to seek a second term in office as your President, and I would appreciate your support and the support of your fine parents. I would hope that if there is anything that you need at the hospital, you would let us know.
Oh, by the way, are you aware that John Kerry is sleeping with Jodie Foster?
Sincerely,
George W. Bush President United States of America
'We have dispatched Dr. David Kay...to search for the bio-warfare agents we believe hidden in Senator Kerry's forehead. If Senator Kerry has used botox as part of a wrinkle enrichment program, he is in violation of UN Resolution 752. Upon receiving Dr. Kay's report, the weapons of mass destruction that Senator Kerry so adamantly insists do not exist...may well be above his very nose.'" --Dick Cheney when asked whether John Kerry has had Botox treaments

heh heh heh.
But seriously, I don't see what all the hubbub is about. The guy was mentally ill and is getting better. As far as we know he was better years ago, but they didn't want to look like they were releasing him too soon.
We see entirely too many people getting away with murder by pleading insanity. But there ARE insane people out there that kill too. Those people actually CAN be treated instead of being punished.
I think it's great that he's getting better.
... Is Jodie Foster married?
