    Now if said wacked-out Mom were a lesbian...

    ...the nutjobs would be using it as yet another example of why gays and lesbians shouldn't be allowed to parent. But, since Salon is the only place I saw mention of this mess, I guess the mainstream media is asleep at the wheel and not being poked by its right-wing handlers.

    Apparently, it's OK if bats*it straight people do idiotic things but not OK for lesbians to appear with their emotionally healthy and well-loved family on a PBS cartoon show about Vermont.

    Thanks, Lynn. Nicely done, by the way.
