Not really.  Probably for senatorial seats, but Representatives run more of a spectrum because of the lowered power of a given seat.  There's nothing unrealistic about the idea of a HoR Republican being right-leaning, although there are certainly less than there were a few years ago.

Actually, Polanski was convicted, but fled before sentencing.

That's…part of the charm of early Dennis Miller.  His whole persona was primarily about having incredible disdain for the audience and being above it all.  It's not necessarily an insult, the man makes it work.

The bear sketch is one of the single best SNL sketches ever.  I think they squeezed it in during his final episode.

It was pretty obvious that the way the review was written was going to bring out the "OH YOUR PRECIOUS EDGY RAPE JOKES" crowd.

I think its the difference between Playboy and Gloryhole Sluts 7.

I think those are just regular Mardi Gras beads, but I'm glad that your brain went there.

Brandanowicz was written off the show because he was making an honest attempt at becoming a movie star,

Huh.  He was the last of the "12 Angry Men" still alive.  The cast of my favorite movie is now all dead.  That's sad.

Inglorious Basterds was a Western, dude.  I think one of the working titles was "Was Upon a Time in Nazi-Occupied France".
But yeah, that whole film is a Western stylistically.  It's actually really odd that he made two westerns in a row.

It isn't racist, but it is based on exactly the same kind of othering from which racism gets its roots!  In fact, stereotyping of other peoples is the problem, but let's pretend that if it isn't related to skin color, it's all fun and games!

While such things are often swept under the rug, I'd direct you towards the very current case of Jimmy Saville, who, after his death, is being posthumously raked over the coals because he was constantly sleeping with 14 year old girls.  Yes, 30 or so years ago, society didn't crack down on older men sleeping

I suspect the war thing will be remembered pretty negatively, the rest of the things Bush was criticized for won't be (which is mostly history correcting itself).

Simon clearly demonstrates that Carcetti took the myth of "just get to a higher level, and you can do EVEN MORE GOOD" to heart so much that he didn't do any good.  All he had to do was take the money.
