"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."

Standing Strong With The Komen Foundation


Just as the holidays are upon us. Just as I've ordered pink poinsettias, to grace the church altar in my friend, Nicole's, memory...

CNN reports Hadassah Lieberman is under attack for her work in the field of breast cancer prevention:

" (Left-wing) activists are setting their sights on Hadassah Lieberman, launching a celebrity-studded petition drive to convince the nation's largest breast cancer non-profit to end the Connecticut senator's wife role as a spokeswoman.

The move to pressure the Susan G. Komen for the Cure foundation came the same day Lieberman's husband angered Democrats by announcing that he would not support an expansion of Medicare to cover individuals under the age of 55. Organizers did not point to that decision, instead citing Hadassah Lieberman's own ties to the health care industry.


Legal Insurrection offers donation suggestions and links. I will now be donating in Nicole's memory.

Look, I do not live in CT and I don't know Hadassah. Nor do I have a horse in this race. Other than to see women get the breast care they need and deserve.

But... this B.S. of attacking the entire family of a politician that we don't agree with has got to stop. And the idea that we (as supposed Progressives) would boycott an organization that raises funds for Breast Cancer prevention and awareness gets to the heart of just how hateful many of us have become.

Despicable.

Standing Outside the Theatre I Yelled: "That Backstabbing S.O.B. Will Never Get Another Dime From Me!" (Mikey Moore Boycott Continues.)

It wasn't all that long ago that Allesandro at the Daily PUMA "suggested" that PUMAs not support Michael Moore's new film. And I agreed.

So... this weekend there I was, standing in line to buy tickets for "Bright Star." When my DH asked me if I'd rather see Moore's new film in the adjoining theatre.

Welllllll ..... that set me off! I think the whole city now knows that I consider Michael Moore to be a conniving backstabber who is responsible, in part, for the predicament that my country now finds itself in. Moore is part of the reason we WILL NOT have meaningful healthcare reform, despite the fact that his last movie was all about how much he wanted it.

No Hillary bashing S.O.B. is EVER going to get another dime from me. And Moore tops the Schadenfreude list. Nothing... and I do mean NOTHING.... will make me happier than to see the Clinton wing of the Democratic Party refuse to buy his worn out brand of self aggrandizing smart-assery.

F.U. Michael Moore. And the C.D.S. you rode in on.

SYD

PS. "Bright Star" is a decent film by Jane "The Piano" Campion. I recommend it, if you like tragic love stories or historical fiction. Or both. (And don't forget to bring your MM rant with you!)

The Daily PUMA is Right: Michael Moore is a Tool, and No Self-Respecting PUMA Should Ever Again Give Him One Thin Dime.

Don't be a sucker! Don't pay to see Moore's newest film. Not after the backstabbing he gave Hillary Clinton in 2008.

I was once impressed by Moore. Saw all of his films. Read one of his books. Bought copies for my family members. NOT THIS TIME!

Michael Moore is on my black list until, and unless, he issues an apology. For steering my kids into voting for an empty suit who has sold us down the river on Health Care, and so many other issues.

There will be NO Moore DVDs under my Christmas Tree this year. And I won't be linking to him in my blogs either.

Michael Moore is DEAD to me.
