“The days when the words Hollywood actor framed Ronald Reagan like bunny fingers as an ID tag and an implied insult seem far-off and quaint: nearly everybody in politics - candidate, consultant, pundit, and Tea Party crowd extra alike - is an actor now, a shameless ham in a hoked-up reality series that never stops.” RealitySeemsActorsPartyHollywoodSeriesFingersCrowdsTeaExtrasCandidatesInsultTea PartyTagFramedHamBunniesShamelessConsultantsImpliedPunditsQuaint Author:James Wolcott
