1. wow, I feel bad for her. that's quite an injury.

[YOY]

2. Because she broke her foot?

Naw that will just make them attack harder. They're cruel bastards.

[blogslut]

3. Possibly

But they'll look like assholes in the process.

[YOY]

9. They look like assholes everyday anyways...

It doesn't really seem to phase them much...

Then again I'm technically an asshole 75% of the time...as opposed to their 100% of the time.

[blogslut]

17. Ah, but you're a self admitted asshole

There are two kinds, you know. The self-admitted and the self righteous.

The self-admitted asshole can always be forgiven. The self-righteous asshole, yells "wolf" once too often and ends up getting eaten alive.

:hi:

[YOY]

18. If you say so!

Thanks! :hi:

6. They'll probly hire people to accost her in public and

kick her in the ankle.

[ErinBerin84]

4. that SUCKS!

[Essene]

5. and this relates... how?

[blogslut]

12. Are you aware that there is/was a concerted effort amongst the GOP

...to have Ms. Ifill removed as tonight's moderator because she wrote a book entitled: The Breakthrough: Politics and Race in the Age of Obama?

[NewJeffCT]

7. Republicans have no shame, but shouldn't we remind them

that Ifill is a good friend of Condi Rice and no Democrats were whining when she moderated a debate in 2004...

[leftofcool]

8. This assumes that someone as professional and astute

as Gwen Ifill would want sympathy

[blogslut]

14. I'm not talking about Ms. Ifill's wants or needs

This is about public perception. When the GOP begins to gripe about her, the public will see them as bullies, picking on a person in a wheelchair.

10. Been there, done that, for 7 months of my life...

it is not fun.

[AlCzervik]

11. that looks hurty.

[nini]

13. No, it will backfire because she will handle herself as a professional

something they don't seem to comprehend.

[blogslut]

15. I agree

However, the GOP is quite practiced at re-framing the truth with their own design. To them, a fair moderator = woman with bias.

[npincus]

16. now you know why wittle Sarah has a bandaid, too

can't let Gwen suck up all the sympathy.

[crankychatter]

19. I don't like Gwen a lot... but I love looking at her

she's beautiful
