i was so delighted when i read 'palimpsest' and he offhandedly mentions leslie neilsen as the 'star of the wonderful naked gun movies' or something

Q: What do you like about Hollywood?

A: The Zucker brothers. They are superb--the Michelangelos of our culture. Watch "Airplane!" or "Naked Gun"--Leslie Nielsen is the greatest American actor ever to come out of Canada. I also worship Mr. (Jim) Abrahams, particularly for "Hot Shots!" But, as you can see, I'm a highbrow intellectual, so what do I know?

hard to reconcile that fuzzy profile of hillary clinton with her recurring enthusiasm for bombing people and starting wars

Lol at She cares.

lol not endorsing that article btw, i just thought the image of hillary handing out birthday cakes was unmissable

He should stick to shit like Swingers.

heres another maybe more credible hillary is a good person piece http://gawker.com/my-conflict-1758741736

Haha, I was super confused until I found out there are TWO Jon Favreaus.

xp actually that is a more credible piece in that I kinda come out of it kinda liking the writer instead of wanting to puke in his mouth.

wow take it to iltmi buddy

As first lady, Hillary spoke about the need for “a new ethos of individual responsibility,” “a great renaissance of caring in this country,” and “going back and actually living by the Golden Rule.”

and then she voted for the Iraq War but let's not bring that up at all...

xp SHE CARES!

not to mention that 2/3 of those r some extremely conservative ass empty slogans

Bill Maher is a fucking Muslim-blood-lusting, vaccine-paranoiac "libertarian" who voted for Bob Dole in '96; i wouldn't even smear liberals by labeling him one.

I am not clicking on any articles when no one read the two misandry-choked Hillary jeremiads I posted.

fair

i, too, have heard that she is a good person who does care. i really like her. i know i'm the odd one out around here for not rolling my eyes and assuming everything she says is insincere but that's cool, just wanted to put it out there that i admire her a lot in fact

I'm voting for Hillary on Tuesday, feel free to fp me

yr both fped and banned

This discussion of Hillary and the article's assertion "She cares." reminds me of the famous quote from George Bush the Elder in 1992:

"Don't cry for me, Argentina. Message: I care."

With daria-g, I also think HRC cares about a variety of issues associated with liberal domestic policies, such as education, voting rights, poverty, and such. She'd do what she could to support enlightened policies regarding these issues. I do get the impression that she will back down on them more quickly than Bernie, because "once burned, twice shy" and she's been burned more than once.

i agree w/ you, daria and i liked that daily beast article

for me shes an avatar of the disastrous neoliberal phase of the democratic party, im open to the idea that that may be somewhat unfair or lacking in nuance, but also imo she lacks political vision which is a problem, im not too concerned with the insincere affect other than it maybe makes it more likely that a republican cld win the presidency

fwiw i suspect voting for her is likely the right thing to do in that it will produce better outcomes but im gonna vote bernie anyway since clintons winning and yolo

Goon otm, that's also my perspective basically. Although I assume she will govern in a less objectionable way than her husband did, because the party's priorities and even its constituency has changed over the past twenty years

http://i.imgur.com/Th7KVg8.jpg

yeah the leftward tilt of the party since then is heartening and bernies popularity is a majorly good and needed message to her too xp

Lol yu gi oh xp
