I'm not sure which depresses me more: the actual Ephron essay, or the majority of comments it received on the HuffPo. So many blissful idiots out there, ready to see oppression and hysteria in the other side's views.

Of course, had the JFK plot NOT been foiled, it would have been Bush's fault.

I'm glad she's not a writer/director I like. On that list, I didn't like a single one of her simpering chick flicks. Sleepless in Seatle was a laugh a minute, and not in the way it was intended.

Of course, my idea of a good chick flick is Super Troopers or Dawn of the Dead... but that's besides the point...

The Left is boringly predictable, but a continuing threat nonetheless.

They are emblematic of what is wrong with Hollywood.

I don't suppose you have an unmarried sister?  "sigh"

People like Ephron are the intellectual descendants of those who thought the Rosenbergs were innocent or, at worst, harmless amateurs.

It’s too bad, in a way, because Ephron’s novel Heartburn really was funny. It’s her revenge novel about her breakup with Bernstein.

You know, they were so patently like minded, as were their names, I have serious doubts that she left the comment section up to chance.....
