I'm thrilled to see that... but at the same time, it makes me feel even more horrible and depressed to have it be out there so fucking blatantly and damningly and knowing it does no good. No one who needs to see those clips will ever see them, because it's the Daily Show.
my husband I were talking about the VP debate last night, and how Biden will have to watch himself. Repubs could say whatever they wanted about Hillary, but if Biden makes one snarky comment to Palin he'll be accused of sexism or beating up on the poor wittle woman.
Is this the lying sack of shit bit? I can't watch the clip you've linked to because I'm not in the U.S.
I find this situation to be incredible, and not a little surreal. It's like when George Bush is talking about poverty, or what comes immediately to mind after Gustav, Katrina. His eyes are always unfocused because the words that describe the issues have no meaning to him. Because to him the issues aren't real. He doesn't care about poor people. And like Kanye West said, "George Bush doesn't care about black people." So to hear these idiots at Fox, these right wing tools, try to talk about women like they care about women is a joke.
On a separate note, I can't fucking stand that she's waving around her child with Down Syndrome like she's such a fucking martyr for allowing him to live because she's against choice. The fact that people with Down Syndrome have a right to exist, and that eugenics is, you know, bad, is a different issue. I hate the fact that it's all going to be muddled up in the media.
