Sharon Stone spoke about peace in the Middle East during a press conference. These are her illuminating comments:
"It feels to me that we have an opportunity ... to choose understanding in a new way," she told a press conference in Paris when asked about her trip.
"And it really is just a breath. It's just an agreement that's just a breath. We are not far apart. We can choose to have this alternative kind of growth that is a collective nuance of understanding.
What does this mean?

"It feels to me that we have an opportunity...a breath away from peaceful coexistence."
What poet did she raise from the dead for this pseudo-intellectual tripe? Keats? Yeats? "Feels" like she knows squat about the current state of the world. Nice thought, Sharon, but get real.

I think it means the full breadth of her intellectual capacity was on display during that interrogation in Basic Instinct.

Isn't it funny that the people who speak up most about the wrong side of the Middle East question are the people who would be executed in short order by the other guys, given the chance?

It means that everyone in the Middle East has looking for the key to peace for millenia, and on a visit, happily she discovered what everyone else had overlooked. I can't wait to see what it looks like.

It means that we have to give up, bend over and take it and smile.
That's "nuance of understanding."

Since this is Celebrity Corner, how 'bout Charlie Sheen's call for re-opening the 9/11 investigation? It's breaking! I know, I know! He's not a blonde, nor your competitor in the mating game and the news cycle can never be so slow as to re-opening THAT can of worms! But this post is like a vegan feast. Starving here!

regarding sharon stone--the best thing to do to go over to comedy central and watch her ludicrous bizarre "i am a useful idiot" behavior. jon stewart does a great job of taking it apart. i don't know how to post a link. it's hilarious.

I'm happy to confirm that,according to Sharon Stone,Sharon Stone does indeed have A genius-level IQ.
And,according to me,it gets bigger when it gets inside.

"It's just an agreement that's just a breath. We are not far apart".
What does this mean?
It means... that when the next Middle-East "peace negotiation" occurs- and the Islamists demand that Israel surrender abjectly, all the Jews have to do is say, "Okay!".

I think if there were the slightest chance that it actually meant something, Miss Stone would not have said it -- or she'd have attributed it to a screenwriter or her publicist.

I don't know what it means, but I do enjoy Sharon saying "breath" (or anything else for that matter).
Oh, are you asking about the political implications of what she means? Nah, you wouldn't ask that, would you?

That she left her talking points in her seat and was trying , unsuccessfully, to form a coherent thought on her own.
