Hey, Thanks! -- For the Vitriol!

Let's talk a bit about what really makes us angry, boys and girls. And WHO makes us really really angry. And guess what --it's NOT the person(s) who are responsible for a war based on lies that killed 700+ sentient beings, for morally and fiscally bankrupting the country, for shredding the constitution, for deliberately drowning competent government so that more actual people actually die, and for making torture socially acceptable, among other things. No, we're actually not hot under the col… Continue

It's Not My Party & I'll Cry If I Want To

1. My support for Hillary Clinton has zero to do with her gender, and everything to do with her policies. Her policies are significantly more liberal than her primary opponent's weak centrist positions are, and thus are closer to my own. (She's still to the right of me, but is well to the left of her opponent). 2. My unhappiness with Senator Obama's campaign is of relatively recent vintage. In December, I felt pretty much that any Democratic candidate would do. I no longer think that. 3. My un… Continue

MSNBC Is a Nappy-Headed Ho

So MSNBC has it's very own "nappy-headed ho'" moment, and blames it all on Hillary Clinton, what a concept.

We enjoy the continuing use of the public airwaves to spread the important traditional twin American values message of sexism and stupidity, really, we do.

Whole story here, via Tennessee Guerilla Women.

Progressives Must Read Robin Morgan's New Piece: "Goodbye to All That (#2)

Robin Morgan wrote a timely, passionate, pull-no-punches political commentary at Women's Media Center, here.

It really turned my head around, and shamed me -- in a good way -- about the Clinton/Obama primary, and many many other things.

Do yourselves a favor and read it right to the end.
