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."

Biggest lie of the week
"In practical terms, the upholding of health care reform is a huge relief for millions of Americans." So wrote Matthew Rothschild (pictured above in Isaiah's "Wheel of Greed," a man so cowardly, he refused to come out of the political closet (he's a Socialist) until 2009 -- he had to reach the age of 50 before the man who opines on politics for a living would disclose his political affiliation. How sad.
So it's no real shock that when truth was needed last week, Rothschild served up sop.
Someday soon, we may be doing a look at all the times Rothschild's blinked. If something else grabs our interest, we'll cover that instead. Otherwise, we may list all the times Rothschild's avoided covering something -- a long list of back stabs on his part. We're talking about issues raised to him that he would swear he'd cover. And then not a peep.
Pray, Matthew, pray that events sweep us along another avenue.
