...1990’s Jacob’s Ladder, 1990’s Cadillac Man, and for his break-out performance in 1988’s Bull Durham. Real cinema buffs also recognize Robbins for his roles in 1999’s Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me, 2000??€™s High Fidelity, 1986’s Top Gun, and the so-bad-it’s-good 1986 Howard the Duck...
...conviction also raises questions about post-9/11 trials. While Stewart was being tried for actions she committed during 2000??€”in the defense of a man not connected to 9/11 in any way—al Qaeda and the terrorist attacks were constantly brought up by the prosecutors. The trial occurred only two blocks from Ground Zero, and some of Osama bin Laden’s videos were shown to the jury.

After 2000??€™s distressing election Democrats swore to us (again) that they would not let us be disenfranchised. Bush’s record is indeed abysmal, but the lack of respect that John Kerry and the Democratic establishment showed black voters is ridiculous. It is also, unfortunately, our fault...
...their influence on both sides of the political spectrum. If these demands are not undertaken by 2008, there is a third, definitely less palatable option, but desperate times call for desperate measures. Black voters could send a very strong message to the Democrats and do what evangelicals did in 2000??€”stay home until their agenda is represented. Whichever path black voters take, Democrats should know that revolt is in the air on the plantation, and the slaves are finally tired of working for free...
