Will somebody please save the damn pandas?

Today show, we need to chat. The giant panda segment this morning... Totally not ok. I have to tell you that I find it all kinds of wrong to talk about pandas DYING in the earthquake in China, while I’m trying to get ready for work. I sat there balling my eyes out while you flashed images of them being buried in shipping crates, and talked about how there were only 1,600 of them left on the entire planet. I felt so helpless, tears streaming down my face, contemplating ways to help repopulate the panda species instead of getting dressed. Are there panda aphrodisiacs? PandaDate.com? What else was there really to do besides cry? Poor pandas... all fluffy and black and white!!! God I hate being a girl...
