Dear Reader,

December is make-or-break for Mother Jones’ fundraising. We have a $350,000 goal that we simply cannot afford to miss. And in "No Cute Headlines or Manipulative BS," we explain, as matter-of-fact as we can, how being a nonprofit means everything to us. Bottom line: Donations big and small make up 74 percent of our budget this year and are urgently needed this month, and all online gifts will be matched and go twice as far until we hit our goal. Please pitch in if you can right now.

December is make-or-break for Mother Jones’ fundraising, and in "No Cute Headlines or Manipulative BS," we hope that giving it to you as matter-of-fact as we can will work to raise the $350,000 we need to raise this month. Donations make up 74 percent of our budget this year, and all online gifts will be matched and go twice as far until we hit our goal.

The final excerpt (reportedly) from Katie Couric’s interview with Sarah Palin aired yesterday. As a number of people have noted, Palin is unable to identify a Supreme Court ruling that she disagrees with other than Roe v. Wade. In fact, she looks hard pressed to identify another Supreme Court ruling. The really uncomfortable part is the last minute of the video below, but the whole thing is worth watching.

And Kevin notes that Palin’s statement that the Constitution includes a right to privacy is a bit odd. She agrees that there is a Constitutional right undergirding Roe, but then asserts that the right ought to be regulated or addressed by the states. Huh?
