...teacher (a brief role played with curt comic brio by Tom Noonan) shouts challenges at the students: "Do you have a sledgehammer in your heart? Are you ready to be my sledgehammer?" The hammers of hell beat in the hearts of these frosty folk; for Snow Angels, like a bunch of other films set in cold climates (The Ice Storm, The Sweet Hereafter, Affliction, A Simple Plan, Fargo, this year's Sundance winner Frozen River), is about people who will do anything to get warm, even if it means getting burned.

And Obama's campaign leveled its own charges...
...constantly touts as an example of her foreign policy experience. So, let's ask a very simple question. Has she negotiated any treaties? When she traveled these 80 countries, was she involved in policymaking? If so, what? And my suspicion is that you're not going to get a bunch of particularly impressive answers...
