Flame--Flames. Flames. Flames on the side of my face!

Okay, flist, it has come to my attention (thanks to a poster over at ontd_political) that It Happened to Alexa Foundation is hosting a fundraiser, an organization whose sole purpose is to help rape victims. Great, right?

In another one of those laughably horrible "one of these things is not like the other," guess who's coming to speak at this fundraiser? Bill O'Reilly. Yep, THAT Bill O'Reilly. The one who blamed Jennifer Moore for her rape and murder; or, you know, the guy who claimed that Shawn Hornbeck just didn't want to go home to his parents’ rules, hence why he remained with his abductor/abuser for four years.

I just can't even FATHOM who thought this was a good idea – unless the ultimate goal is to utilize this opportunity to tar and feather the motherfucker.

Here's the email: info@ithappenedtoalexa.org. I've already sent them an email of my own, but the more voices raised in protest of this fuckwittery, the better.

He induces a rage unlike any I've experienced. It is only compounded by the fact that my mother watches him regularly, but what are you going to do with a Republican mother you otherwise adore?
