Having been on the Bucknell campus in July, I can assure you that about 3 million gnats agree with you.

I'm being eaten by a boa constrictor

Damn dirty welsh

Are you saying that people claiming to be "black" have no history of murder and oppression?

How many of the 600 years do white people get off because the people they bought the slaves from in Africa were themselves black? Do I get a break because at the time that all of this was going on, my ancestors were too busy being pillaged by Cossacks?

Actually, it's Hillary Clinton's fault for not having learned the lesson of 2008 (you don't win an election because you tell everyone that you think you deserve it) and for not having figured out how to win Wisconsin, Michigan, or Pennsylvania.

He's trying to tell you not to worry because Donald J. Trump wouldn't hurt a fly.

I think you mean especially if you don't grow up.

Except that the odds are pretty good that she didn't dye her hair blonde.

I'm afraid that that's nun of your business.

I would say "subtext" is a more accurate term than "undertones." Not only is Emma clearly overcompensating for her attraction to Vienna, but the final gunfight at the end is between the two women, with the men basically reduced to spectators.

There's actually a long history in the U.S. of celebrities becoming politicians — you can go back to William Henry Harrison if you like.

I know that for many people, all that they knew was what they read in the newspapers.

What do you expect from someone who doesn't know that the expression is "borne out"?

Is that you, Donald?

The bar for a finding of libel of a public figure in the U.S. is very high — not only does it have to be untrue and defamatory, but it must have been written with malicious intent. Good luck to Ms. Palin in proving all of that.

I suppose that one could then ask whether the invention of the motion picture camera changed the nature of what instincts an actor needed. I would argue that any 19th century politician would have needed at least something like an actor's instincts in the sense that everything he did was in front of a possibly…
