UPDATE: In Patty Murray’s wonderful statement below the fold on the law, she links directly to the Thomas.loc list of sponsors. There were 54 senate co-sponsors! More than the number 51 we’d heard. And, even among the 54 co-sponsors, most of who necessarily were men since there are only 18 women in the U.S. Senate, [...]

[Note: Lilly Ledbetter is the blonde woman standing to your right of Steny Hoyer.] Big tip to PatRacimora for sending me this wonderful column by Gail Collins in the NYTimes. UPDATE: PatRacimora has created a special cartoon that is going up tonight around 6 p.m. ET! It is poignant that this new law won’t benefit [...]

This: Obama’s speechwriter, Jon Favreau, demonstrating who he, and so many of those associated with Obama, is: a misogynistic, juvenile pig who has disrespected the Former First Lady of Arkansas, a Top 100 Attorneys in the United States TWICE, the former First Lady of the United States, a two term US Senator, the RIGHTFUL Democratic [...]

Well, the election is over and we all need to figure out next steps. However, while we indulge in mulling, there’s stuff going on. Do you know where one of the “front lines” is in international war / finance / fraud? Computers. At least Obama now knows this first hand. 1)The computer systems of both [...]

Like many of you before this election cycle, I never watched Fox News. In my naivete, I believed they were the bad guys and MoveOn were the good guys. Boy have things changed. I now go to Fox before any of the other MSM, and while there are several excellent reporters there, my favorite is [...]

Sarah stands up for all women: “"When it came time for choosing, somehow Barack Obama just couldn’t bring himself to pick the woman who got 18 million votes in his primary, and that seems to be too familiar a story isn’t it? … How it is for so many American women that the qualifications are [...]

I’m trained in philology–the study of words–and I began to wonder about Obama’s supporters’ favorite word for Sarah Palin, the one we’ve seen on the tee-shirts of men and women: Cunt. Going to my trusty OED, I found a bit of history, which is repeated on the online etymology dictionary. I will paste here, for [...]

Sarah Palin has become my new hero. While I don’t agree with some of her political positions, I love that she is unapologetically herself. And she is a REAL feminist, representing many of us who don’t toe the line of some definition of what that is. The so-called “progressives,” men and women alike, don’t approve [...]

One Half of the famous fowl-mouthed Fowler couple offers an apology. We’re still waiting for one from the other half. You know, her husband Pat Robertson, the guy who thinks a hurricane during the Republican convention was a special gift to him from God. In an interview posted on the political Web site Politico, Chairwoman [...]

What He Wants Us To Believe Barack Obama has made recent claims indicating pay equity for women would be a top priority if he were elected President. Sounds great. In fact, it might compel some to seriously consider his candidacy. Don’t be fooled. What we’ve seen of Mr. Obama is a candidacy based on opportunism. [...]
