Today on the Dish, Andrew concentrated on the consequences of empire in Afghanistan and the effect Palin is having on the far right. He also discussed the Catholic sex scandal, while a reader shared a heartbreaking account of abuse. Another heartbreaking story stemmed from the consequences of the gay marriage ban, though we did see some movement toward repealing DADT.
The blogosphere is buzzing with the Polanski scandal; we compiled some commentary here, here, here, and here, and ran some reader dissents here.
