"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."

PM me when the TP figures out how to harness the meandering OWS....

... and maybe then "We the People" will be able to take back our nation.

Until then... I have nowhere to go. And "politics as usual" don't interest me.

Dennis Kucinich and The Tea Partiers (I need photoshop help.)

Could someone please photoshop Dennis Kucinich and some of the Tea Party Congress onto this photo of "Paul Revere and the Raiders" for me?



I mean REALLY!

H/T to Tennessee Guerilla Women for the mind-blowing news!

Women Holding On In Washington, N.O.W. Increasingly Irrelevant, Woman Poll Worker Harassed by Bigots

Anna Belle Pfau sets the record straight. And then goes on to explain why it is important for parity that we, as women, embrace and work with BOTH political parties.

I mean... did you even know that seven Republican women candidates were pro-choice? (If you were waiting for N.O.W. to tell you, no wonder you were confused.)

But, see... here's what happens when women REALLY vote on issues that matter to us and abandon loyalty to their Dem party masters.

We GAIN political leverage...

From the TGW link:

"Obama won women by 13 points in 2008. In 2010, Republicans won 12 percent of the women who voted for Obama in 2008. This is the best the GOP has done with women since 1982."

(No surprise there... for those of us who have been watching closely.)

Quoting one of Anna Belle's tweets about the irrelevancy of N.O.W.:

"Has Terry O'Neill lost her mind? Women voted in the exact same numbers they did in 2008. They just broke evenly this time."

Interesting..... you'd never know it by listening to the MSM talking heads (including NPR and PBS) would you?

Oh... and... just in case you are still under the mistaken impression that the GOP turned out *all* the bigots this year... read this women's story of being an Asian Immigrant and a GOP poll worker. Author, Sasha Gong, was harassed and repeatedly told how little she knew by poll workers from, guess where? The Democratic party. Her account of the bigotry she experienced Tuesday will enrage you!

She ends her article saying that her story "pretty much summarized the story of many in the TEA party."

It's been the story for us PUMAs as well, Dr. Gong. I guess we are in good company?!

She May Not be the Queen of the Tea Party, But She is the Queen of the One Liners (Move over RR)

You don't have to like her every messsage to see the genius of her punch linery:



Oh, and in case you are worried about where she kept her notes that evening:
via TWITPIC and thanks to ProudMilitaryMom at Uppity's Blog.

Listen up, ya'll MSM, DNC, DSCC, and GOP yahoos: Sarah ain't playin' yer game. The ball's in her court now.

You betcha!

Tea Party Reports Pouring In: Cincinnati tops the chart in numbers so far.


All around the country, folks are protesting bank bailouts. THIS VIDEO gives a glimpse of the groundswells in places like St. Louis, Los Angeles and Chicago.

The one in my area is nicely covered by "Doses of Reality." Cincinnati's Tea Party drew an estimated 4000 to 6000 protesters. Not surprising, really, as we are quite the fiscally conservative area. For once I can say I am proud to live here in the Queen City. (We ain't losing jobs, either. In fact, firms throughout our tristate cannot find enough skilled workers.)

Big shout out to Philip at "Doses of Reality" for covering a story that many in the Obamedia would have liked to gloss over. Photos like yours are what holds their feet to the fire!
