...from his tabloid cover-boy status), but this argument makes little sense. If security were really such a concern, then one might imagine that the Marshals and state police would find it more effective to extradite Entwistle in secret—outside of the media spotlight—and transport him to jail in an unmarked vehicle. Although it may be difficult in this era of 24-hour cable news to withhold information from the media, if President Bush was able to fly secretly to Iraq for Thanksgiving, this hardly seems too complex a task.

France is a Basel signatory, but its courts have ruled that, because the Clemenceau is "war equipment," they have no jurisdiction to rule whether...
