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."

Eight long years of publicly pulling his pud
2016 winds down with what will hopefully be Barack Obama's last press conference as president of the United States.
It was yet another jerk off from a man whose self-stroked his way through life.
The most laughable moment may have been when he insisted that he didn't want to add to a "hyperpartisan atmosphere" during the election, "I wanted to make everybody understood we were playing this thing straight."
No sitting president not running for re-election has ever injected themselves more into the proceedings.
He came out repeatedly with one slam against Donald Trump after another.
He should have remained above the fray, instead he spewed insults like an angry, little kitten.
He hissed and he clawed.
And made a fool of himself -- as usual.
We look forward to the start of March 2017 when it suddenly hits Barack that the whole world doesn't need updates on what he thinks and feels.
We look forward to the dawning realization that all of his beer summits are in the past.
