REPUBLICANS’ FASCINATION WITH PARIS CONTINUES…

After terrorizing New York City all week long, celeb supercouple Paris Hilton and Benji Madden were spotted arriving at LAX International Airport in Los Angeles today.

The casually dressed couple looked more in love than ever as they exited the airport holding hands and gazing lovingly into each other’s sunglasses.

Meanwhile, it looks like Paris’ honourable name has been dragged back into the dirty world of politics yet again. After being used by John McCain’s presidential campaign as a ploy to paint opponent Barack Obama as a “celebrity” comes news that Arnold Schwarzenegger has vetoed the so-called “Paris Hilton bill” that would have banned Californian motorists from driving with pets in their laps.

The Republican governor tossed out the measure to crack down on a practice that’s said to be distracting and dangerous: having a dog, cat or other animal in your lap when behind the wheel.

Celebrities including Paris and fellow dog-lover Jessica Simpson are among the motorists seen driving with pets in their laps.

The driving-with-animals bill was backed by the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals in Los Angeles but ridiculed as the “Paris Hilton bill” by critics who described it as unwarranted interference by government.

    I’d rather have Paris Hilton as VP rather than Sarah Palin!

    I have put my dog in a seat belt for YEARS. It is UNSAFE to drive with a pet in your lap. They move, you get distracted, etc….or, how about you get in an accident, and your pet gets smashed in between you and your airbag? Not pretty.
    I tell people (politely) about harness/seat belts all the time, when I see them driving with pets in their laps. I swear, some people are just fucking morons.
