Third Estate Sunday Review

The Third Estate Sunday Review focuses on politics and culture. We're an online magazine. We don't play nice and we don't kiss butt. In the words of Tuesday Weld: "I do not ever want to be a huge star. Do you think I want a success? I refused "Bonnie and Clyde" because I was nursing at the time but also because deep down I knew that it was going to be a huge success. The same was true of "Bob and Carol and Fred and Sue" or whatever it was called. It reeked of success."

Why the US went to war with Libya

The US went to war with Libya because the Libyan leader's career was in the tank.

Having not really impressed since the Time Out of Mind album in 1997, Barack Obama felt that Bob Dylan's good days were behind him and that he'd never recaptured his great days from the early sixties.

As a result, President Obama ordered air strikes to begin the Libyan War and send a poet packing.

And that 'reason' makes more sense than anything Barack babbled on TV last Monday night.
