Newsbusted’s Jodi Miller: “Whoopi…idiot? Or IDIOT-idiot?

We knew Newsbusted’s Jodi Miller would have something to say this week about the POTUS FAIL in Copenhagen, David Letterman, and Roman Polanski, and she didn’t let us down:

I don’t watch The View, and haven’t for years. The only time I see clips of it is when the “ladies” say something so asinine that the media or another blogger reports on it. This is one of those times. Hat-tip to Ed Morrissey on HotAir for this unbelievable reflection of our modern society.

Just for the record, I do understand the difference between “statutory rape” and “rape-rape.” A good (hypothetical) example of a time when “statutory rape” might be handled differently than “rape-rape” would be when an 18-year old boy gets caught in a parked car with his 17-year old girlfriend, who is obviously not being coerced into anything she didn’t want to do. Is this illegal? Yes. Is it wrong? Yes. Should he go to prison for the rest of his life? Her parents might think so, but this situation is clearly different from the one we’re dealing with in the Roman Polanski situation.

In this clip, Whoopi Goldberg explains that “the world” doesn’t view what Roman Polanski did as rape-rape. I’m thankful to be living in a country that still recognizes that a grown man drugging a 13-yr old girl and sodomizing her is “rape,” and should be punished as such.
