...only the Rev. Al Sharpton were a movie critic! If only Johnnie Cochran could file a damage suit for cinematic misconduct! If only Hollywood did not have such an exploitative view of the young black urban audience this gratuitously violent and graceless remake of Shaft is meant to attract! The problem is not just that Jackson, normally as good an actor as they come, is to Roundtree what George Lazenby, who played James Bond in the deservedly forgotten On Her Majesty's Secret Service (1969), is to Sean Connery. It's that instead of updating the heroic Shaft...

Here's another good reason for Hillary Clinton to stay in New York. An Arkansas Supreme Court-appointed panel has recommended that "attorney William Jefferson Clinton" be stripped of his state law license for "serious misconduct" - his oily-at-best testimony about Monica Lewinsky in the Paula Jones case. Most experts considered the move to disbar harsh, but considering half the panel recused themselves last week because of ties to Bill, a high-profile penalty is maybe not too surprising from the half that was left. Clinton was predictably aghast, and though such a busy president will let his lawyers...
