tommygirl: (barack obama - hope)
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.

I step away from the computer and fandom for twenty-four hours and not only does Britney go crazy, but some asshat decides to plagerize an entire journal. I didn't know [livejournal.com profile] thamiris, but wow the balls to do something like this. I understand witty posts aren't always easy (if you read my journal, you know that *rarely* does my brain work enough for such things), but that doesn't mean you can steal someone else's thoughts. It's just...I think the fact that he took her posts/comments/user info bothers me more than the fic - it's simply creepy.

On the Britney topic, just oh Britney. Seriously, my friends, it's really sad when Kevin Federline is the sane, good parent in the mix. These poor kids. I'd really like to see Britney get her act together enough that maybe she can be a good mother. It's just sad.

Barack! I loved his victory speech in Iowa last night. I sorta love all three of the lead democrats at the moment, but wow, that was such a great speech. Wouldn't it be nice to have a President who could formulate words again without coming across as an idiot and/or ass?

I'm falling asleep as I type this, but I want to get my [livejournal.com profile] yuletide fics reposted and do some reading...this may or may not happen. Such is my life as a sleepyhead.
