Really? I recall hearing that and far worse, just from d listers like Nugent and lunatics like Jones (and my immediate family) instead of top actors and musicians at awards ceremonies.

Watched it once, never to return-One of those once is enough flicks....Don't dig that 'window into slow demise' kinna flick(didn't LLV kinna put him on the map....Best Actor)?

He takes on roles as cage playing cage-I place him in the Keanu Reeves category of hactors as in, where are they now?
But you really can say that about any A-lister from the 80's-90's, Hollywoods' drying up on her corner and vine-Cage got roles and was handed prominence because of the Godfather, FFC.

Brian Cranstons' got more talent in his little finger, and he's done how many feature films???

Liked 'Next', but because of Jessica Beale and Julianne Moore, plus.....Philip K Dick story-and I'm about the PhilDick.

Can't watch Raising Arizona anymore-can't get a giggle from it-my chucklers' maybe broke....

(watching Lord of War now, revisiting it to try and prove myself wrong)

@xxovercastxx

His name and signature (or a facsimile of it) were on the newsletters. I've never seen RP as flustered as when he's trying to answer questions about these newsletters. Oh, and he's a conspiracy nut, too. The messiah has fallen, which now leaves exactly as many viable Republican candidates as there were before all of this newsletter business... zero.

Watching the Republican candidates self-destruct and eat their own is like watching D-listers go at it on Survivor: DC. You tune in for the entertainment value. You may even have a favorite, but it's chaos and bloodshed you're really hoping to see.

Just listened to the John Hamm WTF - really good. Doing the Bryan Cranston one now. He's really getting lots of A-listers these days.


Yeah I know, it's awesome, I think I'm going to sign up for his premier pass (whatever pay thing). BTW, he's started a youtube channel for his show with behind the scene stuff

I am so obsessed with this show...why can't we have stuff like this in the states?


Because Jesus likes his flock stupid.

Another article from MSN with a little more clarification on what this is about:

http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/10/10/1531677.aspx

They didn't actually find anything unethical about the firings. The abuse of power claims are based around accusations of her knowlingly allowing her husband to be involved somehow. Problem is they don't seem to have any actual evidence. Just statements that they couldn't prove a personal connection, but since they couldn't disprove one either it must be true. Here's an article from the Anchorage Daily News detailing the trooper that was fired:

http://www.adn.com/politics/story/476430.html

Just about everything that was in question ethically happened even before Palin ran for office. Also, the things Palin claimed caused her to fear this guy were all substantiated by the trooper's record. They had police statements from before Palin even ran for office where Wooten threatened family members and was physically abusive. I think this will only become big if something more concrete comes out of it. Like if it actually makes its way to the Alaska Personnel Board and they find that she actually broke the law (which is unlikely). I would also expect Obama's campaign to run with this too if it really carried any serious weight.

I do like this part of the BBC article since it sums up what I think pretty nicely:

"The US presidential race has now become so polarised both Republicans and Democrats will likely see the report's findings as vindication for their own trenchant views about Mrs Palin, says the BBC's Richard Lister in Washington.

Alaska's governor will either be seen as the victim of a Democratic party hatchet job, or a hypocrite.

Most voters, for now at least, seem more concerned about who will extract them from the current economic crisis, rather than any questions about political infighting in far-off Alaska, our correspondent adds."

In regard to your recent downvote, not that you have to justify yourself to me (not in the least, really), but do you really not like this clip? Do you not find QI irresistibly hilarious?
