@ItchykooParker: If you read the post, you'll see that NOW has strongly condemned Mandell.

@Kilotwat: Thanks for this. Adding into the post.

@jejune - the giraffe hugger: I really don't understand your point. I don't think Tracie's post in anyway was "baiting" people into calling Paris names or implying anything. It was a recap of an episode of Paris's reality show.

@ladyshiv: HA! No! I screwed up and pasted the wrong link in there. It's fixed now! Whoopsie.

@Seeräuber Jenny: The comment wasn't directed at you, however, your completely anecdotal evidence about racist jews you know or have experienced doesn't advance the conversation at. all. Yes, there are racist Jews, just as there are racists in every racial and ethnic group. I don't get what your damage is.

@hortense: I agree! The purpose of this clip was not for you to make sweeping generalizations about all Jews or all senior citizens. It's just plain ignorant and will not be tolerated. An offhand comment from one woman? Yeah, that says nothing about an entire group of people.

@puffthemagicmuffin: haha, no worries. I made the joke to sort of mock the stereotype anyway:) And yeah, I'd like to think that I'm pretty uncrazy myself, even with my shrink mommy!

@puffthemagicmuffin: Dude, I am also the child of a shrink. That's why I made the joke. Lighten up.

@eys: it's not a list of fiction. Several of these books are memoirs including The Liars' Club by Mary Karr, the book by Martha Gellhorn and I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings by Maya Angelou.

@anibundel: Ok, whew. I understand more now, and we hear your point about Palin for sure and honestly WE'RE sick of her!!! But yeah, I hear you — I was more annoyed with the worstie for being rude, calling us boring, and implying that we don't cover the issues. Because we do! Or at least we try to!

Btw, for those of you too lazy to look up the articles we've been doing on the issues here are several: Read more

Also, this is not a partisan site. Though all of the editors lean left, we're not the Daily Kos. Please remember that. If you want a complete round up of all political stories, read a site that is exclusively about POLITICS. We write about many, many other things and it's OUR JOB to write about those other things.

@anibundel: We HAVE been covering the issues. At length. I was going to post the SHEER NUMBER OF POSTS we have been doing on the issues, but decided that was petty. I guess not! Yesterday alone, Megan did a post on John McCain's stance on SEVERAL issues relating to women, I did a Q&A with a Wall Streeter on the Read more

@SisterMaryMartha: we're having major issues here, and we've alerted tech. they're on top of it but things are pretty wonky right now.

@MissRockyMay: They're not spoilers. Every single one of the contestants who is still on Project Runway had a show at Bryant Park. That is why Dodai did five different posts for their shows instead of three.

@persepolis: Ah, you must give Hortense at least a bit of frocking credit for that funny!

You guys I saw all those Winslet movies (Quills, Little Children) and find her Vanilla. It's called MY OPINION and i'm not retracting it! Suck on that, haters!!! (J/k, except about the part where I think Winslet is not right for the role.)
