I guess I felt like her feelings were pretty typical of the guilt and shame a lot of victims of sexual abuse experience; that they deserved it in some way or were somehow responsible for what happened to them. I didn't have a huge problem with that.

Jon Stewart deserves serious props, no matter your choice of political party. He's gotten in more shots on republicans than I could ever count, but we (republicans) are better for it and it's sad to see him leave.
