Is Feminism For Women's Rights or Just Abortion Rights?
I had always described myself a a feminist. A feminist to me was some one who believed in equal pay for equal work, equal opportunity in jobs and in schools. I also subscribed to the pro choice decision in Roe versus Wade.
I no longer attach myself to the tittle of feminist. It no longer has the same meaning. Kim Gandy and the organization NOW has endorsed obama, because he is the "pro choice candidate. They no longer work toward equal pay and opportunity for women, they are only concerned about abortion.
Just as the democrats have failed me, NOW has also taken a turn in another direction which does not include all we have fought to obtain.
They will not back Sarah Palin because she chose for herself and child, life. This her belief and her choice. Joe biden also believes life begins at conception and abortion is morally wrong, but they do not hound him.
The democratic party and NOW used to believe in "choice but do not believe Sarah Palin has a choice.
Women, like men, come in all colors and stripes, all sizes and shapes and all are uniquely different. Some believe that life begins are birth, when the breath of life enters the lungs, some at conception. But we are all women.
Senator John McCain makes an example of equal pay for equal work by practicing that in his Senate office and his campaign. Does BO?
Actions, my friend, actions, speak louder than any words spoken. Remember bull-crap walks.

obama: He’s no great equalizer
"Now is the time to keep the promise of equal pay for an equal day’s work,” Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama said Aug. 28 in his convention acceptance speech. He told the crowd in Denver: “I want my daughters to have exactly the same opportunities as your sons.”
Obama’s campaign Web site is even more specific. Under the heading “Fighting for Pay Equity,” the women’s issues page laments that, “Despite decades of progress, women still make only 77 cents for every dollar a man makes. A recent study estimates it will take another 47 years for women to close the wage gap with men at Fortune 500 corporate offices. Barack Obama believes the government needs to take steps to better enforce the Equal Pay Act.”
Obama’s commitment to federally mandated pay equity stretches from the Rockies to Wall Street and beyond. And yet it seems to have eluded his U.S. Senate office. Compensation figures for his legislative staff reveal that the Illinois senator pays women just 83 cents for every dollar his men make.
Obama’s 28 male staffers divided among themselves total payroll expenditures of $1,523,120. Thus, Obama’s average male employee earned $54,397.
Obama’s 30 female employees split $1,354,580 among themselves, or $45,152, on average.
Why this disparity? One reason may be the under-representation of women in Obama’s highest-compensated ranks. Among Obama’s five best-paid advisers, only one was a woman. Among his top 20, seven were women.
Again, on average, Obama’s female staffers earn just 83 cents for every dollar his male staffers make. This figure certainly exceeds the 77-cent threshold that Obama’s campaign Web site condemns. However, 83 cents do not equal $1. In spite of this 17-cent gap between Obama’s rhetoric and reality, he chose to chide GOP presidential contender John McCain on this issue.
McCain’s payment patterns are the stuff of feminist dreams.
McCain’s 17 male staffers split $916,914, thus averaging $53,936. His 25 female employees divided $1,396,958 and averaged $55,878.
On average, according to these data, women in McCain’s office make $1.04 for every dollar a man makes. In fact, all other things being equal, a typical female staffer could earn 21 cents more per dollar paid to her male counterpart - while adding $10,726 to her annual income - by leaving Obama’s office and going to work for McCain.
McCain is more than fair with his female employees, while Obama - at the expense of the women who work for him - quietly perpetuates the very same pay-equity divide that he loudly denounces.
If you are a woman and believe in equal rights for all, not just men, John McCain and Sarah Palin is the team you should vote for.
BO says he is for equal pay for women but his actions do not reflect his words. You simply cannot trust this man. He says one thing but does another. It is the old "bait and switch" deal. Don't fall for those old tricks.
BO is "for" abortion, not equality.
Just say no deal!

NO! NO! HELL FIRE NO!
Knowed you was a gonna do it, Bill. You know, ask me to vote for BO. Now I know you are loyal Democrats, but the party left me when they decided not to count my vote. And BO worked his fanny off to keep Florida and Michigan from having a new vote. Don't you dared say he did not, Karen Thurman, head of the Florida Dems told me otherwise.
In this video your eyes give you away. Your eyes do not match your words. Your lips say vote for BO but your eyses say no, no no. The eyes are the mirror into the soul.
"We cannot go forward until Florida and Michigan are taken care of, otherwise the eventual nominee will not have the legitimacy that I think will haunt us. I can imagine the ads the Republican Party and John McCain will run if we don't figure out how we can count the votes in Michigan and Florida."
Hillary Clinton

Who Has No Experience?
Let me see if I get this right. BO was a community organizer, a part time legislator in Illinois and spent 1 year in Washington, hmmmm, hmmm.
Sarah will a heartbeat away from the Presidency and BO will be the heartbeat.
Wait, I almost forgot, he did make a speech in Germany.

Does Obama Have Multiple Personality Disorder?
I got whiplash from him saying so many opposing things.
Then I got pissed because he, the news media, and other unnamed politicians are lying tails off. I want to know why these idiots are telling me it will take ten years to get results from drilling offshore? I refer you to a site Poliitical Junkee, article "Offshore Drilling Part 2"
http://politicaljunkee.blogspot.com/2008/07/offshore-drilling-part-2.html#links
On September 5, 2006, Chevron and its partners,Devon and Statoil, announced the discovery of a hugereserve of oil and natural gas in the Gulf of Mexico inthe Walker Ridge Area which is about 270 milessouthwest of New Orleans and 175 miles off the coastof Louisiana. Production would probably not start until 2010 at the earliest with full production notuntil 2013 at the earliest.
Most of the research has already taken place, and 2013 is 5 years not 10. Some one needs to give boy a lesson in arithmatic and geography.
