Young Feminists Vote for the Woman?

There is an interesting, though slightly infuriating, argument brewing among feminists.
Should feminists vote for the woman “just because” she’s the woman? (As if U.S. Senator or successful attorney are not great qualifications.)
Even though she’s not as “likeable” or “passionate” (passionate is what we’re calling the man, while cry-baby is what we’re calling the woman for showing emotion apparently) as the black man?

Here’s a link to an article about the young feminists at Hillary Clinton’s own alma-mater Wellesley, an all-women’s college, in …read more

Hillary Wins New Hampshire

Thefirst female ever has won a United States Primary Election – hallelujah!
It’s was such a thrill to see Hillary win last night after her defeat in Iowa. My daughter and I slapped a high five and talked about how a woman might actually be the next Commander in Chief.

Totally fair and equitable treatment of the only lady.
Hillary was also told by the political head honcho of ABC that she’s “not as likable as Barack Obama.” She responded, “You’ve hurt my feelings.” Well, it was rather rude.

Face of . . . Status Quo?

Did you catch the 4 hour New Hampshire Debate on ABC?
My favorite part of the whole thing was when white, male John Edwards and Barack Obama were calling Hillary Clinton – the only woman ever to run for President – The Status Quo!
Doesn’t that just beat all? Yeah, somebody in this picture represents the status quo . . . but it ain’t the only woman ever to run!
