"Just Tell Them...

I have worked 40 years to make the Women's Suffrage platform broad enough for Atheists and Agnostics to stand upon, and now if need be I will fight the next 40 to keep it Catholic enough to permit the straightest Orthodox religionist to speak or pray and count her beads upon."

Tammy Bruce Nails It, FOX Publishes It, Progressive Women Get It.

Tammy Bruce, formerly of NOW, has penned this excellent piece about California NOW and the "W" word.

In it she opens with....

"You know the phrase "a disaster waiting to happen?" For over a decade now I've been waiting and watching, knowing that the National Organization for Women would inevitably have a very public nervous breakdown brought on by the pressures of using women's issues to further the misogynist leftist agenda.

The only questions were when it would happen and how public the collapse would be. I now have my answer--October 2010."


But don't stop there. Really. Be sure to read the WHOLE thing! Even if Mr. Obama and his minions want you to be afraid... very afraid... of FOX news.

That's one of my "Pet Peeves" too, Rev. Amy. How dare some smart ass punk of a Physical Therapist tell YOU what you can and can't read or watch! (Like you, or any of us, are too stoopid to see what that's about??)

It is a sad day, really.... when "Progressives" become so non-progressive that they actually defend whore, slut, bitch and cunt as "OK to use" words. And then follow their nonsense up with "and you best not be listening to our dissenters at such-and-such news outlet."

It's an even sadder day when a whole swath of *truly* Progressive women are forced into the camp of "the enemy" because it is only there that we can expect our outrage to be aired.

Tammy Bruce is right. 'Cept, it's not only NOW that is having a "public nervous breakdown." It's an entire industry that oppresses women "for our own good." (Because, ya know, the only thing that matters to any of us is whether we can get an abortion at the drop of a hat. And we had better tow the line, or they'll take THAT right away, too.)

"She Deserved to Die, The Whore" .... (for those who think the use of the word "whore" in 2010 is just peachy.)

Listen to how "whore" is used at approx. 1 minute into this International Woman's Day speech by Human Rights Activist, Maryam Namazie:



And then tell me how "innocent" and "benign" the word Jerry Brown would use to describe Meg Whitman is.

Thanks to Herlocaust for calling my attention to the video. And to Uppity Woman for introducing me to the Herlocaust blog.

Gloria Allred Has Lost Her Feminist Cred, In An Attempt To Smear Meg Whitman

In the run up to the California Governor's election, Ms. Allred does harm to TWO women and their families, at the apparent behest of her "Liberal" party Masters.

For shame, Gloria! These are not the actions of a Feminist!

Oh The Double Standards!


First the "You can say that all you want about Republicans, but you better not say the same about Obama" double standard that has seen many a liberal female blogger shunned.

And then the "If you are male pol you can hire undocumented workers to cut your grass, but if you are a female pol you better not hire one to be your nanny" double standard that is so popularly used to take women down in the final weeks of a successful campaign.

All in a day's news....

Hillary's 18 Million Cracks, Two Years Later: What an Awesome Night for Women Candidates!

Two years after my grave disappointment in the Democratic Party ...

I woke up this morning to excellent news from California. Love both of these women, Fiorina and Whitman. They are gutsy, self made sorts. And they have what a state like California, drowning in debt, needs. I wish them both well for the November election!


Then more good news from South Carolina! Nikki Haley withstood the smear campaign against her and triumphed big. I'll admit, I'm a little more than impressed by this daughter of Sikh immigrants. Because I support women candidates from both parties. And because I have respect for the Sikhs, who seem to have a REAL "religion of peace" (unlike a certain other one that is being paraded around as "peace loving" in Gaza, and at Ground Zero.)

Harry Reid apparently believes he will run ripshod over Sharron Angle come November. We'll just have to see about that.

Blanche Lincoln also pulled out a win in spite of the White House's meddling in her campaign. Good for her!

The big winner of the evening was Sarah Palin who backed a bevy a women winners.

"Palin had four primary endorsements in play – Carly Fiorina, Nikki Haley, Terry Branstad and Cecile Bledsoe – and three won or moved on to a runoff."

Rise, Sisters, Rise!

Good Night to be a Woman, Indeed!

Boosting The American Economy, One Citizen at a Time




In her own words....

"But what I’m most proud of is that nearly 1.3 million of eBay’s registered users made most, if not all, of their livings selling on eBay. eBay helped create e-commerce, and in the process, it became a creator of small businesses. Most of all, it became the home of so many inspired individuals –- Americans with the courage and passion to create businesses and jobs.

I ran eBay with those folks in mind. We purposely kept regulation on eBay to a minimum, so that small businesses could innovate. And when we spotted eBay entrepreneurs trying to build businesses, we worked hard to help them grow.

Freed from too many corporate rules, and supported by eBay’s technology and employees, eBay unleashed the entrepreneur in people around the world. And that created thousands of jobs, not only at eBay, but at all the companies that provided the services and products eBay needed to operate."

And Now, For a Hint of Good (Feminist) News: Meg to Replace Ah-nold?



""A person who is knowledgeable about Whitman's political aspirations told The Associated Press that the 52-year-old Silicon Valley leader is planning to run for governor. The person, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak about her future on the record, said Whitman's resignations are "a strong indication" that she wants to clear any commitments that might interfere with a run for political office.

She will make the announcement official in four to six weeks, he said.

Whitman is one of three Republicans who are considered front-runners in the 2010 California gubernatorial campaign.""
