@clockwise - counter: Facts?! When have we ever let facts get in the way of protecting our children?

Wow, I'm as disgusted with the jury as with the rapist himself.

@OldEnough2BYourMama, @MagImpalor is a god damn spy.: And not just TV - print media, too!

Hey McCance - I have solid Christian beliefs, too. And I think you're a hateful jackass who hasn't read, or understood, the New Testament.

I am sure that the NFL players will also be accommodating and solicitous to their wives in order to keep them from cheating. Right?

@Ultraumatic: Yes, but in her defense, I think she would prefer:

@The Fake Santa Claus: Good question! I think the fact that it was an oral agreement takes the bite out of it a bit. Something for their lawyers to chew on; but, nothing to smile about.

So an outlandishly-dressed teenager shows up to a single mom's door, asking for a trick or a treat? There's a porn movie in there somewhere, I know it.

@SparklyTempest: Bingo. That's what's really disturbing here. While she has a right to her political opinions, her activities (especially the fund raising) can certainly create a conflict for Justice Thomas.

Ginni and Clarence clearly deserve each other. Anita clearly deserves better.

"highly tendentious, over-determined, and silly" in the HBR?

@GeorgeFayne: Not sure if those are worse there than elsewhere; but yeah, I hear you.

@tacotico: Thanks. As Jon Stewart likes to say about Fox, the jokes practically write themselves!

@GeorgeFayne: Agreed on how awful this editorial is. Smug denial is never appealing. (But I actually like New Haven. And Yale. And not just because they pay me.)

@girlinthegarden: I was just about to post something similar. Of course artists draw on personal experiences for inspiration, but I think it's a sign of maturity when the personal is a starting point and their work is not just transparently autobiographical. I don't begrudge Taylor her success, I just look forward to…

Coming soon from Fox News:

@rcalderh: "Strap on some patriarchy ..." - love that phrase!

Of course they're going to drop Favre. Sending out pictures showing 2 1/2 inches of limp dick doesn't make you much of a Wrangler, does it?
