    Last night I wrote two checks: one to Planned Parenthood and the other to the Southern Poverty Law Center, which had been tracking von Brunn for decades. It was a pitiful gesture but it made me feel like I was doing something.


    The rising level of right-wing anger and rhetoric is seriously scaring me and I used to think I was just being paranoid but now I know I'm not. Impotent anger has turned dangerous, you guys, and I don't know how to stop it.

    Ugh, someone at Jezebel is *really* desperate to look like they're reaching across the aisle on this Palin/Letterman crap, especially for a series of cheap yuk-yuk political jokes. Sarah Palin is not a feminist icon, she is not a role model for anyone; she is a hypocrite, pure and simple. If Palin was really that concerned with protecting her ever-multiplying spawn, she would not have spent the last year whoring her entire family out for the sake of her political career.

    Does anyone know how O'Reilly, Hannity, Limbaugh or any other Fox News asshats reacted to yesterday's shooting?

    @Rosaxé: Apparently O'Reilly had nothing to say. He didn't mention it. I'm sure he's working up to it, though, figuring out a way to blame Obama and his socialist leanings.


    Glenn Beck said now the targets for extremists will be Jews and conservatives. Not sure how he managed to work that one out.


    Michelle Malkin pretty much called Shepard Smith a pussy for being concerned about the rise in racist emails the network has been getting (gee, you think!?) and saying the DHS report warned against guys like von Brunn. I can't even watch her...everything out of her mouth is a flat-out lie and and she says them so easily, like she doesn't care what's true or not.

    Note to Shepard Smith: I'd have a lot more sympathy for you if you woke up and determined that Fox News is indeed the mouthpiece for intolerance that it is, and moved to CNN.

    Shepard Smith has my respect for being someone who actually admits when he's wrong. Sad that this is so unusual, but it really is.

    @queenieinmanhattan: I feel like there's this idea in media that advancing to the top is so cutthroat that you can't ever rescind anything you say ever, only backpedal and qualify, which makes you look slimy, myopic, and bullheaded.

    I don't think Sarah and Todd Palin were that offended-they just saw it as a chance to issue press releases acting offended. I think Letterman knows that, too. Not that he's been perfect, but I loved how he tore the Palins apart last night, then asked them on the show. My favorite joke was the "So then I bought $150,000 in clothes to make myself feel better."

    You know what happens when my boss sets a deadline that I think is difficult to reach, even when it falls right after a holiday weekend? I shut the hell up and get to work, or I lose my job. And I don't even have a staff to read things for me and tell me what I should do. STFU, Republicans.

    @PinkSoxHat: Yeah, I wish that they had an actual boss with the power to fire them. Instead of the American people, who can't, like, get together and be all, "You're fired!" because they have a hard enough time getting together to HIRE them.

    Targeting the children of someone in politics? Not okay. Not, not, not okay. That's why I gave up on late night "comedians" like Letterman and Leno and probably Conan.


    Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert, though. They are late night funny with class. Bless them both.

    Rone-ry? That's from Team America, right? Took me a while to figure it out.


    Fox News scares me in their outright pandering and slightly less obvious incitement of right-wing nutjobs. I used to be able to ignore it when I thought everybody saw through the scam, but now it's just scary how many people actually use it as a "news" source.

    @oh.geez.: I live right outside of BOSTON and the restaurant that is closest to me and has cheap beer (so, my usual) always has one TV on Fox News. The other day the guy at the bar next to me tried to strike up a conversation by saying that it was a shame Tiller was killed, but, yah know, he was killing babies. Without a word I gathered my belongings and moved to the other end of the bar. Fox has gotten into everything!

    I don't care how funny a punch line she is. Can we all just not mention Sarah Palin or the rest of her clan. She's like Candy Man or something, the media says her name 3 times and the public has to deal with her terrifying interviews and quotes for weeks. It's not worth it.

    I thought the biggest issue about the DHS report was that it advised that ex-military people would be more likely to go batshit on someone. People got mad because it seemed like a stereotype or something? I don't know. I can't really remember because I didn't pay that much attention to the fuss about the report.

    @linnyt is a walking cliché: There was all kinds of fuss about it. My one-and-only conservative family member tried to convince me that he would probably end up on some extremist list because they were targeting 'white men who attend church weekly'.


    Reality isn't a friend of the conservatives.

    David Letterman should just have Jezebel commenters write the Palin jokes. They'd be much funnier and Dave wouldn't look like a sexist asshole.
