"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-

I heard about it from, I think, Ed Schultz. Which is a bit like seeing a football coach at a "Take Back The Night" rally, but he did put it on "Psycho Talk" where it belongs. I would never read Stein's byline...why should I? Anyone? Bueller? (Still takes 3 people to do Keith's job. Sigh. Ed's got the sporty bits, Rachel's smart and funny, and O'Donnell's East Coast and knows more people than you.)

From Sullivan:

Another writes, "Thought you'd enjoy this FAQ by a college professor for his students on what do about final exams in the event of rapture." Money quote:

Q: If my mother/father/grandfather/grandmother/favorite aunt/etc. is chosen, will I be excused from the final so that I may mourn his/her loss?

A: No. They have not died, but been granted eternal life, thus this does not count as a case of a death in the family.

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-

I, personally, would find that kind of unexpected...not that I meant to call football coaches rapists...they're big, and dudely, and there are women with candles...
