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."

Susan Rice: Bolton With Less Charm
Above is Isaiah's The World Today Just Nuts "Alice In Barackland." Susan Rice has always been a piece of trash. She demonstrated it through out the 2008 primary campaign.
But one would have hoped that when made the US Ambassador to the United Nations, Rice would have picked up a sense of decorum if not, in fact, any actual class.
That was not to be. So when the Security Council vote at the United Nations didn't go the way she (and the White House) wanted, she began hissing and snarling in public, "Outrageous!"
What was outrageous was the fact that her behavior was no different than that of John Bolton's and when Bolton was the US Ambassador to the United Nations those of us on the left were appalled by his blustering and bullying.
Maybe it's time Barack learned to curb Rice? Unless, of course, this is the way he wants the world to see his administration.
