...provide a legal rationale for torture, it would be gift-wrapped in the American dream? The Judiciary Committee's heart was warmed by Gonzales to the point of thrombosis. An exception was Lindsey Graham, Republican of South Carolina. "We have dramatically undermined the war effort by ... playing cute with the law," Graham said, adding that the use of torture had caused us to lose "the moral high ground" and become "more like our enemy...
Grace scores best. He's as cute as a button and at first displays about as much personality. Carter is "psyched" by corporate ruthlessness because he doesn't know any better. A trophy wife and a trophy car fail him, and calling a staff meeting on Sunday--a way to fill his empty day off--doesn't do much for his spirit either. This is a guy who needs to recognize his inner dorkiness and turn it into true manliness, and Grace--well, yes--gracefully manages that transition. He's a very winning actor...
...more or than and. Jennifer is talented and cute but too pudgy to land hot-chick roles. Instead, she's playing Ophelia in a production of Hamlet with fewer audience members than actors and doing "stand-in" work on George Lopez (literally standing in an actress's place so that the crew can set up the lighting).

All that visual noise allowed it to tiptoe past the acknowledgment that, however heinous the methods of Clinton?s enemies, most of the sexual dirt they shoveled was based in fact...
...animals. Luke did not include any. The ox and ass first appeared much later, in artistic renderings like a 4th century Roman sarcophagus that shows them peeking over the side of Jesus' crib. Cute as it was, the image served an interreligious enmity, employing for Christian purposes God's annoyed statement in the Old Testament Book of Isaiah that "the ox knows its owner, and the donkey knows its master's crib, but Israel has not known me." By contrast, the camels that pop up in many Nativities are relatively innocent. A passage from the medieval compendium of saints' lives...
