okay, I really need some sleep

But first, the Rall comic. I know that people I respect think he is an asshole. Tell me why, because every time I see one of his comics or columns, I really dig him. What am I missing?

Shortly after 9/11, he did a gratuitously nasty cartoon about 9/11 widows, implying that they were attention whores who weren't really grieving. That's when I decided he was an asshole.

FWIW, If it's the cartoon I'm thinking of, I've always felt like it was directed at some specific widow or group of widows, not all of them.
