How disgusted are you by the past several weeks' not-at-all moronic argument about exactly how racist and suppressive-of-white-people that Hispanic woman who's the first-ever Hispanic women to be nominated for the Supreme Court is? Very? Very very? I'm sorry.
In case you have just a tiny little bit of tolerance for idiotic delusional talking points in there, this'll squeeze the last bit out…
Totally, totally, totally unfair of Rachel Maddow to use facts against Pat Buchanan's arguments! She should know how much he hates those!
If you're interested, you can find the original Maddow/Buchanan cage battle after the jump…

Over the past few weeks, we've explored the sibling rivalry between television/radio correspondents and bloggers. But what better way to end this feature than with an inspiring story which shows us how blogger-correspondent collaboration can literally save lives…
It seemed like any other Amtrak train on any other crisp April night. But it very much was not. Greta Von Susteren and her husband were aboard the DC-NY Amtrak train, when, all of a sudden, Von Susteren's husband, John Coale, heard a frightening sound, and nudged his wife to attention. Greta recognized the sound and knew it was one thing and one thing only: a food allergy attack. Herself a food allergic individual, Greta knew what she needed to do. Armed with a bendaryl tablet, Von Susteren ran to the rescue of the would-be victim and bravely administered the antihistamine.
The saved allergy-sufferer recalls the "indescribably terrifying" attack and the soothing words of her savior. "She was like 'I think I know what is happening to you. Don't worry about it. We're going to get you a Benadryl'." Though she'll never know for sure, the Benadryl recipient suspects that without the interVontion, "It would have been a thousand times worse." Greta claims, "I didn't do anything heroic. I did what anyone would have done." Maybe anyone would have done this.
But the person Von Susteren saved wasn't just anyone. She was none other than "far-left person" Ana Marie Cox.
The Fox News correspondent's actions were so brave Bill O'Reilly knighted Von Susteren a "Patriot" and stated that "Ironically, Miss Cox, a far-left person, now may owe her life to the Fox News Channel." Destiny (or bladder control) intervened once again, a month later when the two ran into each other, a month later, in the ladies room at White House Correspondents' Association dinner. Amidst the sound of hand blow dryers and flushing toilets, Cox uttered the following words: "Thank you for saving my life."
These women certainly have their differences (see chart below). But they were able to put them aside.
