#2 I really didn't give a rats ass about this case either way. I just wish this case, the Scott Peterson case, the Kobe Bryant case, the Michael Jackson case, and all the rest would hurry and be over with. Every time I put on any kind of television news whether it be FOX or any other network, it seems like these court cases are what they're talking about 75% of the time.

#5 Odd case. She is convicted of lying about a non-crime. Off with their heads. Elizabethan England in the courts.

#6 Lil,
It would have been better if she'd have walked... Now the media has the sentencing and endless appeals and legal misteps to cover, analyze, debate and opine until the fall... If she we freed today we would have forgotten about her by this evening...

#8 Prediction: She doesn't spend one day in jail. She will do community time...prolly catering for the SEC ....or Haliburton!

#10 They couldn't get her on fraud charges so they get her on lying to the Feds? Okay, maybe I can see the 0bstruction of Justice Charge but if they ever charged everybody who lied to the FBI they'd have to build new prisons. And I wonder how many employees of the company whos stock she sold also sold off their when they might of known before hand.

#11 Martha Stewart has been more or less set up to take a fall. The people(?) wanted "action" taken again all those Evil Rich Corporate CEOs (tm) who had been, uh, getting one over on the little guy... or something... and Martha was the most famous one the Feds could find. Not a good day for America.

#12 Martha is a small fish. I REALLY want to see Bernie Ebbers and Ken Lay spend some quality time at Club Fed.

#13 No Club Fed for those guys. Leavenworth.

#14 Really this could be an opportunity for Martha to develop some street cred.
This should just be an avenue for her to add an edginess to a body of work that I feel was growing stagnant. Does anyone think that Julia Childs or Miss Manners would have been able to demonstrate the proper way to hone a sherbet spoon into a shiv.

#15 Makes sense, SH.

Julia, no doubt. She was with the OSS in the Burma theater.
