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."

The joke that is Brett McGurk
As if Iraq hasn't suffered enough, Brett McGurk is back to 'helping.' Brett Blue Balls McGurk 'helped' Iraq under Bully Boy Bush. He 'helped' Iraq under Barack.
If you ask Sunnis or Kurds, they'll tell you exactly how unhelpful Brett McGurk truly was. But the United Nations, intent on proving that despite their claim, it is not your world, felt Brett was just the man they needed -- note the term "man" and that the UN never seems to find a woman -- in Iraq.
Brett is a joke to the Iraqi people.
We were reminded of that yet again when journalist Rasha al-Aqeedi Tweeted about "McGurking."
