US Surgeon general? Please excuse me while I try to pick myself up off the floor.

But Christine brings the angst so it's all okay, right?

WRONG. Kate's running for surgeon general. Kate's running for surgeon general!

Her character reminded me a lot of Grace. She was very passionate about women's rights, feminism, pro-choice, etc., the only thing that was different was her character prayed..

Well, they didn't actually show her praying, thank god, I probably would've had to turn away if they did.

It really wasn't a huge part. It was just toward the end when her and her husband were doing an interview he mentioned that she has been praying a lot the past week.

It's all I could think of. Oh well, I think Chris once played a really religious person who hated gays or something completely unlike herself in a movie, and I remember going, "WHAT?!?!?"

Yeah, in general, from what I can gather, Chris is like Grace in nearly every way. I mean, she even went so far as to point out in an interview that pot wasn't altogether bad.

Pot really isn't all that bad. I don't get why people make a big deal about it. It annoys me when people are like "Yeah, I like Grace, but I don't like that she does pot. That's really bad." It's like "Dude, WTF!?"

In general, I think we live in a society that looks upon pot, weed, etc. as being bad. If you think about it, it's actually better for you than cigarettes. You can't overdose on it, you probabley won't get lung cancer (although you might develop respiratory problems), and in general all it does is get you high. I'm not encouraging it, but I don't think it's evil. And it bugs me that everyone hates Grace for it......

It's got to be oddly interesting for Christine though that the characters she has played on tv (and I reffer to kate austin and now grace) have been so very hated by a large percentage of the viewers. I identify with Grace so very much and when everyone goes around slagging off Grace it makes me wonder. I certainly don't consider myself to be such a horrible person. Yes. I am most definitely stand-offish and I'm not the easiest person to get along with but... Oh I don't know.

But if Christine plays characters whith whom she tends to agree/identify with on a personal level then that's got to be a little harsh if they get that much hate.
