Sarah Silverman took her pro-abortion platform to MSNBC this week, home to an anchor who suggested someone defecate in a female politician’s mouth and another booted from his perch for uttering a gay slur.

Silverman had an important message to share with the channel’s small viewership, one that apparently was more important than taking a stand against what anchor Martin Bashir said about Gov. Sarah Palin sans punishment.

I think vaginas really, really scare people.

The shock comic’s appearance coincided with an online telethon to raise money for abortion services in Texas.
