And, just as Transamericas allegedly unconventional woman is a perfectly conventional woman underneath, so the entire slate of Oscar nominees is, in a broader sense, a phalanx of Felicity Huffmans. Thats to say, theyre dressing up daringly and flouncing around as controversy, but underneath theyre simply the conventional wisdom. Indeed, Transamerica would make a good name for Hollywoods view of its domestic market a bizarro United States run by racists and homophobes and a poodle media in thrall to the administration.
Hollywood IS a bunch of posers these days. It is embarrassing,
I agree. I just hope he keeps on keepin' on. I try to make certain I do not stay in the office late on Thursdays so as not to miss any of Steyn's semi-regular appearance on the Hugh Hewitt show. Yesterday, Steyn even took Hewitt to task for his head-in-the-sand approach to the Muslim Cartoon riots. Steyn said the muslims in Europe are pushing the envelope over there, "like a prospective homeowner contemplating buying a new house, who wants the kitchen redone before he moves in". Steyn says these riots and such are the Muslims' way of "re-doing the kitchen before taking posession of their new home".
Great analogy.
