a political crosspost

[tommygirl]

So if you, like me, are a woman who is against Sarah Palin and the manipulative idea that women will automatically flock to her because we share "girl parts", well here is your chance to speak up. Women Against Palin - We are not in the habit of criticizing women in the public sphere, as we usually feel we should support our female compatriots with as much encouragement as we can. However, Sarah Palin's record is anti-woman. Feminism is not simply about achieving the power and status typically held by men. It's about protecting and supporting the rights of women of all classes, races, cultures, and beliefs. Palin's record and beliefs do not align with this. She was chosen by John McCain specifically because he believes that American women will vote for any female candidate regardless of their qualifications. He is wrong.

You can email them at womensaynopalin@gmail.com with your name, (last initial is fine), age, and place of residence with your thoughts on why Palin does NOT represent the women living in this country. Responses will be posted on a blog called Women Against Sarah Palin.
