Ricky Gervais At The Golden Globes

I respect callous disregard for the vanities of the pampered. Robert Downey Jr, you cannot erase your criminal past. "How dare he say what we think?" Tim Allen insulted American manhood for a decade plus with his grotesque "Home Improvement." He is a hack who happened to latch on to a successful franchise just as his career was hitting the skids. Fazil Iskander wrote, "Ancient Rome perished because its emperors in all their marble magnificence failed to realize how ridiculous they were." One could say the same for our modern Babylon. Hollywood should applaud the jester's mockery, because it is a valve for revolution.
