Oh, Lord. What did Far Right Barbie do this time?

Ted Cruz is filth.

Reading all the synopses (from anniversary books and whatnot), it does seem as if there's a period of time when Roger is not in Springfield.

Wait, is Patton a witness for Tom, or for Mark? Where, oh where, is Della Reese or John Dye to give "Miss Wings" a reality check?

Look, I think Woody and Mia are two, very damaged individuals; and I think their damage has undoubtedly shaped the lives of their children, both biological and adopted. You don't have to know what happened on that day in August, 1992, to see it. I just think it's telling how so many are outraged -- outraged, I say! -- over Woody's marrying his stepdaughter and (allegedly) molesting his other daughter -- but hardly anyone batted an eye when the African-American community complained about the lack of AA actors in his movies, or the stereotypical roles for the ones he does employ. (I, myself, have counted only two actresses of color in Woody's movies. One played a maid, the other a whore.)

LOL. Please tell me you're kidding.

Why is it that some people accuse the Democrats of being as racist as others accuse the GOP of being, then turn around and make statements such as this? Has Keith Ellison's skin suddenly lost all its melanin? If the Dems are, indeed, racist, don't you think people from within the party would be working to rid themselves of this man, too? Because, there is no such thing as a man who's been raped, right? RIGHT?

But I'm still left with a big question: why was Heather Grant so damn crazy?

Personally, I don't think Sarah Silverman went far enough when she told the Berniebots and the other far-left nuts at the DNC that they were being ridic. If you ask me, someone should just tell them to have a Coke and a smile and STFU. (Especially those who are all "Up with Socialism!" these days. GMAB, we don't need no damn socialists to fix this country. We just need people who know what the hell they are doing.)

I don't say good. I say DAMN good. "The Talk" doesn't need that woman anyway. In all the years that that show has been on the air, I've never heard or read anyone say they tune in specifically to watch her. TT (and BB) could continue on w/o her and hardly anyone (not even the "fans" who called her "Chenbot," which CBS and Chen herself idiotically took to mean as a term of endearment) would gaf. I know we're talking about a woman here, but...bye, trash.

The Anita Hill/Clarence Thomas hearings should have been a teaching moment for all Americans, young and old. It's one thing to tell a woman, "Sorry, we just don't believe you." But when a woman -- and a black woman at that -- is both crucified and vilified, even by other African-Americans, simply for coming forward -- which, people tend to forget, she didn't want to do in the first damn place! -- what does that say about us as supposed Judeo-Christians in an ostensibly democratic society? I'm with the anonymous woman with whom Mr. Ali has been in contact for over a year regarding her own sexual assault allegation. When you see how your average person responds to these women, it's no wonder why most never come forward. Instead of giving the victim(s) the benefit of the doubt, we'd rather believe the male perpetrators are being needlessly persecuted as we cower behind the "innocent until proven guilty" axiom.

All of a sudden, this is turning into an episode of "Law & Order"...and I'm loving it.

On the one hand, I'm proud she has come forward. She's right: if anyone should tell her story, it should be her. But, OTOH, I feel bad for her, because I can only imagine how she has felt, struggling between doing her duty as a citizen and notifying the authorities about Kavanaugh, and protecting her loved ones and herself from the harshness of media and public scrutiny. Even now, after re-reading the piece, I come away with the impression that part of her still wishes she had remained anonymous -- there's even a statement from her, saying, essentially, what's the point of doing this, if it won't make a difference on his SCOTUS confirmation?, which breaks my heart -- and that she's only coming forward now, with tremendous reluctance, because the letter has been leaked to the media. Damn, I wish we hadn't put her in this tough position -- it's almost like being assaulted again, if you think about it -- but I'm still proud of her (and of all who have come forward with their own stories of sexual assault and harassment). Who knows? Maybe other women out there -- not necessarily anyone else who's been victimized by Kavanaugh specifically, but who've been victimized by men -- will recognize in CBF's story their own misgivings about coming forward; and maybe they will see, too, that if she (and others) can summon the courage to come forward and tell their stories anyway, so, too, can they. At the very least, I wish there were some way to let these women know that they have tremendous support from all sections of the public (well, except those from "Trump Country"), and that we have their backs, no matter what.

I wish I had written for THE DOCTORS, because, even as a viewer, I really wanted to save Dr. Dan Allison; and in fact, I had mapped out in my head just how to do that.

I shouted with my feet.

Wow. What an interesting nod to history.

She isn't a perfect choice, but I'd choose Nina Tassler.

Yep. I don't blame her either. Even as we're outing sexual predators left and right, women still live in fear of having their careers, reputations and even lives ruined simply by coming forward with the truth.

I had a feeling that letter would contain a sexual harassment allegation. Unfortunately, Brett Kavanaugh could murder a black Baptist preacher in the middle of town on a hot afternoon, and he would still get confirmed by the GOP. But, I hope no one brushes aside this woman's allegation, because where there's one, there's always more. IOW: party at marceline's pad, seven o'clock, B.Y.O.B.

I agree. And if they don't, then I am officially done with CBS. I won't pretend to gaf about her. You want to stand by your man, Julie? Fine. Take your man, and your money, and get the [!@#$%^&*] out.

It's like what we always say about voters, especially those on the left and far-left, engaging in some ridiculous "purity Olympics" (tm @marceline?). No candidate, I have learned, will ever be perfect. But picking off every candidate with even the slightest flaw is what got us where we are now w/ Trump.

I wish Bernie and his contingent would stop trying to make their revolution happen. It's not going to happen.

I wouldn't expect any less from Les' highly paid mistress.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm..........

IOW, he'd fit right in (again) with the current soap climate. "Travis Schuldt IN at DAYS!"
