Today's Newt Relief

Yet another Republican debate last night.

Time for a little relief from all that ugly.



The Ultimate Hippy Stud, Joe Dallesandro in all of his glory about 1968.





And lovely British actress Freema Agyeman dispels all the ugly still, and very nicely.

Since the news cycle is likely to be dominated by Newt Gingrich's leering Jack-o-Lantern face for quite some time, I'm providing a little relief for the eyes on this blog.

The others aren't so hot either. You could cut yourself on Mitt's features. And Santorum's good little Catholic boy and star of the catechism class look with the sweater vest is just irritating. Ron Paul looks like the old guy down the street who always chases the kids and the squirrels off his lawn.

Robert Reich reminds us this morning that Dems should not be so sanguine about the prospect of a Newt candidacy, that even a 10% chance of President Gingrich is too much risk.

Freema! <3 <3 <3

[One of the British tabs put it best, when she was named Dr Who's (first ever black) Companion: "She's Dalektable!" ;-D]

Thanks, Doug.

Between these Two Gorgeous Specimens, and the Rethuglican Horrow Show, it's harder to imagine a vaster gap...
