Final Word from Friday, June 30, 2006
In a different age, Maurice Chevalier watched the children playing in the park and sang, "Thank heaven for little girls." No one thought him a pervert, though, because he added, "For they grow up in the most delightful way." Jiří Paroubek was sort-of accused in the Kubice organized-crime report of sleeping with an underage girl, and he simply won't let the public forget the injustice. What he neglects to say is that it was his favorite paper, Právo, that brought his alleged "pedophilia" to the public's attention. In retrospect, it looked like a calculated move on Právo's part. Paroubek can hum "Thank heaven for this little girl" as he uses the wild accusation to draw attention away from the more believable and more serious charges in the Kubice report. The question, though, is whether Paroubek isn't taking this crazy pedophilia thing too far. Little girls eventually grow up, and so should little boys.[Czech Republic Gigi pedophile Jan Kubice mafia]
