Three days ago I had the Saturday Night Card Game all lined up. The MSNBC tweet heard round the world about conservatives hating biracial families just landed on my lap, the easiest SNCG post ever:

Twitter exploded, providing easy post material (Check out Twitchy, Right Scoop among others).
Cheerios was not happy that MSNBC was dragging it into conservative bashing.
In one of the most beautiful displays I’ve ever seen, dozens (hundreds?) of conservative biracial families posted their family photos.
