Obviously. Ms. Tucker served her sentence ONLY because she was caught.

That's how it works in our justice system (i.e., you can't serve your sentence until you've been caught, tried and convicted). %$%#@#$%

Moby, moby, moby.... This is how it works. Bush is a fine young man from ruling class, where it is nothing wrong with being drunk like a skunk and drive a car, with a potential to mow over the tiny kids. Tucker, on the other hand is a commoner. How dare she commit a crime? She ought to put to death. Ruling class has all the right to make mockery, with a smirk on the face, for the clemency request of a commoner. Mercy is only for ruling class.
Same rules do not apply always.

<<He served ONLY because he was caught in Maine. We never would have heard of it had he been stopped in TX. You can't deny that.>>

That's the truth. 24 years ago there weren't many restrictions on drinking and driving in Texas. It was even legal to drink WHILE driving then.

How can anyone confirm or deny something that didn't happen? It has to be fun making arguments without the hassle of using any logic.
