The Daily Show tried to make a joke out of the Wisconsin protests by bringing a camel to the snow—to mimic what happened in Cairo, apparently.  It did not work out.  The camel freaked. Where are the protests from animal rights groups against the DS and Jon Stewart?

Allow me: As an animal welfarist, I protest. Bringing a camel to an icy spot, amidst loud protests, was a very stupid idea. No word on whether the camel was hurt.

Dear Reader,

You have a decision to make: double or nothing.

For this week only, a generous supporter has offered to fully match all new and increased donations to First Things up to $60,000.

In other words, your gift of $50 unlocks $100 for First Things, your gift of $100 unlocks $200, and so on, up to a total of $120,000. But if you don’t give, nothing.

So what will it be, dear reader: double, or nothing?

Make your year-end gift go twice as far for First Things by giving now.
GIVE NOW
