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."

Look who's offering advice
Last week, ranter Denis Leary proposed that a dunk tank be created for US House Rep. Eric Cantor. While we have no strong opinion one way or the other on Cantor, we did have to wonder who the hell Denis Leary was to be suggesting a dunking tank for anyone?
We found it as laughable as Eric AlterPunk's recent attack on Noam Chomsky, in fact.
Denis Leary, of all people, is going to try to pursue the high ground?
After a lifetime of stealing the act of Bill Hicks?
Seriously?
When thieves enter the national debate on ethics, we've truly entered the age of the absurd.
