Laura Linney just won an Emmy for her work on John Adams...I had the Emmys on in the background, and I think that her last thank you line was something like "And thank you to the community organizers who helped form this country", or something to that effect. Anyone catch what she said?

Silly game. Everybody falls down, and you can't tell where the hell the ball is.

13. It's The Perfect Storm when an actress can
accept an award on National tv and throw in a true line that is also a plug for the Democratic candidate for President of the United States of America:patriot: :toast: Laura Linny

I guess we have to have a tip of the hat to the Ghouliani and mooselini.

17. She's a wonderful person and a true liberal
Edited on Sun Sep-21-08 09:26 PM by senseandsensibility
She's very talented and classy. I was once told by a friend that I looked liker her, and it was one of the best compliments I've ever received. Of course the friend was being over-the-top flattering, the way friends are with each other, but I liked the flattery anyway!
