Two things came together for me yesterday that flashed before my eyes like a giant, red, neon sign winking "Women, Go Back to the Kitchen... And Stay There!" The effect was further enhanced this morning, when I went online-- through Yahoo! --to find synonyms for "misogyny" on Roget's Thesaurus II...
Mark Levin has issued a call to conservatives: Act now, or you will have John McCain as your Republican nominee. With McCain's win in Florida there has been this air of inevitability about the man...well take a step back and you see that it's all hokum. I will reiterate something I've said in...
by Frank Rich via the New York Times WHEN people one day look back at the remarkable implosion of the Hillary Clinton campaign, they may notice that it both began and ended in the long dark shadow of Iraq. It’s not just that her candidacy’s central premise — the priceless value of...
So. I live in St. Louis, which is in Missouri. :) We are one of the states with a primary on "super tuesday." I know I've said on here many a time that I'm not into politics. I'll say it again, just so everyone knows. I'm not into politics. However. My Scott wanted to go to the Obama thing at the...

Dear Hillary, 18 months ago I remarked to a friend that while it sounded enormously appealing, I didn't think we'd have a woman and a black man vying for the Democratic party nomination in the 2008 election. To tell you the truth, calling such a scenario "appealing" was both prejudiced and...
I see Sen. Clinton has resorted to even more attacks on Sen. Obama, all of which smack of desperation and come through to me 7,000-plus miles away as tiresome. God only knows what the American people have to put up with on a far more frequent basis, especially if it is in my consciousness in a...

There's so much stuck in my head, and I just wanted to get it all out. But every...
I've always been proud of the fact that the first Muslim representative in the U.S. Congress is from Minneapolis. Even though I don't live in Keith Ellison's district (which primarily covers the predominantly African-American neighborhoods of north Minneapolis) I've supported his work and campaign...

February 06, 2008 As I have traveled around the country these past twelve months, what I sensed in my heart has been confirmed. America is embracing its LGBT sons and daughters with an acceptance and understanding as never before. On the campaign trail, a father of a gay son will ask about ending...
As you may or may not know, on Sunday afternoon there was a rally for the Obama for President campaign at the UCLA campus in Los Angeles. By the time I remembered it was happening, Caroline Kennedy was nearing the end of her remarks as covered by CNN. But then they cut away for their regularly...
Today has been a day of anticipation and hope. For the first time ever, I voted for a woman running for president of these United States. But I had to wait all day to do it, until after Hubby got off work. I had a slight butterflies-in-stomach feeling all day, kind of like how you feel during those...
A girl can change her mind, can't she? Can't she!!! From the unbelievably early start of this whole election season, I endorsed Obama. I, like many others, had reservations about Hillary Clinton, not so much about her competence to govern, but about her reputation. Can you believe it? I was worried...
If there's one question I get asked way more than any other, it's this: "Ted, we absolutely love your relentless conservative bashing, but we'd occasionally like an article that showcases liberal stupidity in all it's glory, so when will you stop lambasting the good guys long enough to post...

I prophetically perdict... Barack Obama will win Texas and Ohio, it is his time and not only will he win Texas and Ohio, he will win the dem nomination and he will go on to beat McCain with more excitement, inspiration, motivation and energy than the world has ever seen before. There will be more...
Back at my old Friendster blog, I used to do a semi-regular news review on a quasi-daily basis called The Gates Ombudsman. Since it has been a while since I've blogged, I decided to bring back the format to catch up on things I've missed. But now, we have a snazzy, yet amateurish header for it. Yay!...
I ran across this article that was compiled by Ann Sanner for the Associated Press. It's informative, objective, and contains the facts that us news junkies love but don't always have the time to track down on a daily basis. So here it is in it's entirety. Today on the Presidential Campaign Trail By...
Yesterday, Hillary Clinton endorsed Barack Obama. The speech she delivered was nothing short of amazing. Now, I am obviously a supporter of Senator Obama, and have been throughout the primary season. I will admit, that over the last six months I've sometimes criticized the words and tactics of the...
