Americans have to unite and stop this descent from a freedom-loving nation into the kind of place where masked, militarized government agents are sent to politically noncompliant areas to roam the streets, terrorize civilians, and deploy violence with impunity.

He is the first animal to win a major film acting award.
Today ends my rematch of Ally McBeal, one of my favourite shows as a young lad. You know, deeply flawed, and too often driven by make writers, it still slaps. I see a lot of Arrested Development, Happy Endings, The New Normal, and Girls in here. Give it a shot and report back to me.
