I am comparing role models...and as such, if you read, Vick may actually be leading...

Drunk driving is HARDLY a "minor traffic violation" simon. Those girls should be thankful that they didn't kill anyone in their inebriated condition.

Re: Paris Hilton, Lohan or Michael Vick?

Since I don't follow the lives of the Rich & Famous I'll allow corrections to my guess. Didn't Hilton go to jail for repeatedly driving without a license ? Did I miss the DUI ?

and she got out cause she was too cute to keep in and the clink was too ickey...or some such garbage.

still, were I to have to choose, I'd want somebody that at least looked classy whether it was fake or not - a $50 Rolex is not bad looking .. I know, I happen to have a few I can let go at a significant discount (I got connections)

think I'd have to go with Paris .. is she putting on some pounds? beer is fattening, you know.

Re: Paris Hilton, Lohan or Michael Vick?

Unfortunately, probably eighty percent of the general population has driven drunk at some point at least once in their lives, most getting away with it. But very few people have done what Vick has done to dogs. That leaves it up to between Lohan and Paris, and right now I'll take Paris as my spokesperson, as she has been to jail and survived it, meaning she has "paid" for her crime and done the time. This makes her much more sympathetic than Lohan, who has come off as even more spoiled than Hilton, especially after coming out of "rehab" and then re-offending. How would you like to run that particular rehab center by the way? It must look like a really effective program right about now.

According to preliminary data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), in 2006, 17,941 people were killed in alcohol-related crashes - an average of one every half-hour. These deaths constituted approximately 41 percent of the 43,300 total traffic fatalities. Drunk ( those at or above an illegal BAC of .08 ) drivers were involved in 13990 fatalities in 2006.
Those statistics are from the Madd website. I think a lot of people here are being way too quick to just shrug their shoulders at drunk driving.

Agreed on the statement about way to many having driven drunk at least once. No further comment there.

As for the rehab center ... it probably makes them more desirable since "celebrities" have been there.

I would disagree that Paris isn't a repeat offender. How many times was she caught driving without a license ???

At this point I'll give you Paris being the hero of these three losers.

Even in jest, I don't think my heart can take Paris Hilton being described as "important news!"

The only reason I say Vick is that he's the only one of the three who hasn't officially been found guilty of anything. When and if that changes, my vote may change as well. I still find all three of them immensely distasteful, though.
