Debra Saunders had a disturbing piece up at the San Francisco Chronicle recently. In the midst of all of the haggling, blaming, and name calling going on at the Hill, this may not seem like an exciting, gotcha kind of story, but it is an important one, and highlights a situation that will have a [...]

On Monday, June 6th, while Congressman Weiner finally admitted he is a big fat lying pervert with no morals or sense of decency, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was celebrating the fortieth anniversary of Title IX. To celebrate Women in Sports, especially with the Women’s World Cup (soccer) coming up this summer, Secretary Clinton delivered [...]

Update below the fold. Debbie Wasserman Scultz, that is. Her twisting, looping, convoluted machinations to deflect for Re. Anthony Weiner should easily merit her the second spot with Obama on the ticket. I mean, really, someone who can stay the talking point repeatedly no matter how idiotic it sounds with a straight face surely does [...]

You are never going to believe this. A woman in Saudi Arabia had the AUDACITY to get behind the wheel of a car. The nerve of her! Who does she think she is, wanting to drive herself. Good grief, what IS the world coming to, I ask you?! Ahem. I wish I could tell you [...]

Nancy Pelosi has come out with another whopper. Honestly, I just do not understand how this woman can be so clueless, but well, she is. She is now claiming that “there is a war on women,” discussing primarily issues related to choice. And of course, this “war” is perpetrated by the Republicans. Really, Rep. Pelosi? [...]

I suppose that can be taken a number of different ways considering all that is going on in the world with Japan fighting desperately to deal with after-effects of the massive earthquake(s) and tsunami there*, Libya bombing its own people, gasoline prices skyrocketing which makes food prices skyrocket, and on and on… But for the [...]

(March 10, 2011 – Photo by Michael Loccisano/Getty Images North America) The above photograph was taken at the Diller-von Furstenberg 2nd Annual Awards, as Chelsea presented her mother, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, with the first Inspiration Award. Some of the most poignant moments for me of the 2008 Campaign were to see Chelsea Clinton [...]

I wrote this two years ago after International Women’s Day (which was Tuesday, the 100th such celebration). I have written about women in Afghanistan recently, and this one also looks at women there, and other countries, as well. We are all connected, each and every one of us. As long as women and girls are [...]

Recently, faithful NQ Reader, Cindy, asked that I reprint this post from last year. Since it is Women’s History Month, this seems like an appropriate time to do so. I have not seen recent poll numbers for Secretary Clinton, but other than that, the numbers remain in the same ballpark, sadly. One day, I hope [...]

* Bumped Up * (This is a critical issue, written in Reverend Amy’s gifted language, that all of us as citizens must focus upon and demand that strong measures be taken to bring this unspeakable behavior to an end. – Bronwyn) No, I don’t mean whatever flu or cold this is going around right now.

I admit – I am procrastinating writing this story because it makes me want to throw up. It is disturbing to say the least, and I must thank SeriouslySickofObama, a faithful No Quarter reader, for making sure I saw it. It is not for the faint of heart. And no, I am not referring to [...]

UPDATE: Protesters called for huge numbers today for Friday prayers in an effort to oust Mubarrak. Once again, the numbers are below 250,000 (“tens of thousands”), just as they were for the “Million Man March” the other day. The Cairo Metropolitan area has over 22 MILLION people, and Egypt 85 MILLION people. Again, I have [...]
