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."

Truest statement of the week II
"You bring in the military force, and you fight the terrorist there, you evict them. And then what? That's the problem with the Tikrit operation, that it is a purely Shiite-led military operation against a heavily Sunni place of the country. This is Saddam's birthplace here, with no political endgame anywhere in sight. Not for the people of Tikrit, not for the Sunnis of Iraq."
-- KRG Vice President Qubad Talabani to Deborah Amos (Weekend Edition, NPR).
