Can't Resist Kate Winslet Post. . .

Not for "The Reader" she shouldn't. What a vacuous piece of Holocaust porn that was. Winslet should be ashamed of herself.

.
Well, at least you've moved on from fawning over Meghan McCain, Michael.
.
Or have you?

Gotta say, that minute and thirty-eight seconds is the best performance I've ever seen Kate Winslet give.
**

MS- Was McMeghan at the karoake party? What did she sing? Which number did you do? Poor AMC, fired by Time and now mocked by the blog she started and ditched for Time.

Bah! And I say again: Bah!

What could be worse then mass murder? Illiteracy! Who knew!

Interesting when posts simply disappear rather than go into moderation. I wonder what causes that.
.
btw, cliff, since you have expressed interest, I have some links for you at my new site (click on my name).

Holy crap, I didn't realize you were serious! That's awesome!

So may we assume Winslett:holocaust::wingnuts:creationism? Just a means to an end? Surely you had a point in posting this, Michael.

OT –

Typo of the Day from WaPo.com:
.
"GOP Governors and Federal Funds
South Carolina's Mark Sanford and Florida's Charlie Christ weigh in."
.

Talk about mixing church & state!

I'm just glad Winslet got the oscar because I don't think I could take another year of her relentless campaigning.

but the clip is a classic...

OT, best headline of the day (via atrios):

Citigroup's Clever Plan to $crew Taxpayers Again

MS,
.
Is it the post that you can't resist or is it her?
.
Btw, I couldn't resist making that known.

The latest scandal is that Winslet may have her Oscar taken away. Apparently, she isn't actually English. She was really born in Detroit. The British accent is just another device she uses to woo the Academy.
.
Demands to produce an authentic birth certificate have been rebuffed by Winslet's p.r. firm.

sqr1, for the win!

I know Oscar hangovers are still kicking in but are we going to get a post about Karl Rove not honoring his subpeona today? Just wondering.

Who cares?
.
Perhaps Michael Scherer would care to respond to #22 on this earlier thread where I called him a liar.
.
If Scherer would like to try his hand at real reporting for once, he can pick up the phone and ask these questions, then print their response. To make it even easier, I've included the phone number and the name of the person to speak to.
.
Scherer isn't going to pick up the phone and ask those questions, because he's simply an MSM hack who has no interest in real reporting. Like Jake Tapper said, there are a lot of people who report from their knees.

Why are you (and p_luk) ignoring the growing controversy surrounding Kate Winslet? Apparently it is illegal for Hawaii's Department of Health to comment on Obama's vital records. But I am unaware of any such restriction on the British Crown.
.
The monarchy can confirm that Kate Winslet is not only a native of Detroit, but loves the Pistons and couldn't tell you the name of a single English football player that isn't named David Beckham.
.
Here, I've even provided you with the mailing address:

HM Queen Elizabeth II
Buckingham Palace
London
UK

Please post any responses.

Though I've not been able to see the Reader yet, I did see her in Rev. Road, and she was spot-on. And I still say she was f'ing brilliant in Eternal Sunshine...

Overall, hmmm, why do films about the Holocaust bring in so many trophies? I wonder....

Ricky Gervais is a genius. There is no person I can think of who can deliver lines that makes me cringe with embarrassement like he does. I literally can't watch that clip through. I need to watch some slapstick to cool myself down now.

Let's not forget the denouement (around 45 seconds in): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gMb4oFVf0zs
