The mom is on CNN right now and here are my observations: 1. She's kinda fucking hot, in a midwest young hot mom with a nose ring way. 2. Racist old guy said "Fucking Nigger" to her and the baby, twice! Fucking Twice! 3. He said it directly into her ear, leaning into her. 4. Then he slapped the kid. 5. The kid is sooo gooddamned adorable he makes me want to have the kids that I am never, ever gonna have.

This story is like a Chappelle Show skit spun out of control. Who calls a BABY a nigger? If you wrote this as a skit, it wouldn't be funny because it is so far outside the realm of possibility. And yet, here we are, with some asshole from one of the whitest states around yelling at a teeny, tiny, teeny black baby. I'm sorry, but this is making me so stabby that I can't even stand it. Ugh. So did anybody have any good meals/cocktails this weekend? I'd rather think about that for a while.

IS there a site (besides our Wonkette, of course!) that isn't filled w/ douchebag comments? Yahoo, Youtube, Red State, etc?

In honesty, the "I'll give you somethin' to cry about" approach is an old one. But not w/ OTHER people's kids.

Engendered from the same loins, nourished in the same womb, raised with the same love and expectations, and yeah, night and fuckin' day. I had dinner with some old elementary teachers of the boys tonight, and they assured me that they had just the same thing with one of their boys, and it all worked out just fine. So I know there's hope.

A most interesting number, Hardy.

You're being more than fair (which is your nature). That garbage can't come out unless it's in there in the first place.

We're not gods. We're not even earthly judges or juries. Our condemnation has no consequences. But you're right; I should let the milk of human kindness flow more freely. It's the only milk that'll ever flow from me.

"80% of sites are faster." Yep.

"Unfortunately, for reasons I will NEVER understand, I attract little kids."

It's the same reason my cats would always jump into my mom's lap (she disliked/feared cats since childhood*). They can tell.

*Interestingly, she never slapped any of the cats.
