McCain on Roe vs. Wade

Of course feminism and women’s rights are about a lot more than just Roe vs. Wade but its still important to remember why winning this election is important to the fundies.  Its video like this that makes we wonder how any liberal progressive could ever consider switching to McCain.  (h/t Feministing)

Oh yeah, and I’m still alive.  Just taking some time to figure out what I’m going to do when I grow up with graduation a month away.   Scary.

Obama, Clinton Wrap Up Historic Campaigns

Yesterday we saw the final votes cast in one of the most amazing and historic primary campaigns in our nations history. I don’t need to go into all the many reasons why this year has been one that our grandchildren will learn about in school. Two of those reasons are painfully obvious just by looking at our top candidates.

Even though Clinton and Obama stayed practically tied in every measurement in the end there is a clear winner. I have truthfully said this whole time that I would fully support any of our top 3 for president and I think that most Democrats feel the same way. So even though I threw my support behind Obama a while back, today is the first day that we can say that Barack Obama is the presumptive Democratic nominee.

Hold on to your pants, now its going to really get interesting.  Watch these two give their speeches last night.  Obama gives a great speech and I think Hillary does as well.  Some may have wanted something different from her but I think her supporters are all happy.  I know I am.

Bill Clinton’s Last Day In Politics?

Categorized: Democrats

I highly doubt that, but this is what he said today to a crowd in Milbank, SD. I’m not reading too much into it but it’s an interesting thing to hear with all the rumors and speculation about Hillary’s campaign.

“I want to say also that this may be the last day I’m ever involved in a campaign of this kind. I thought I was out of politics, ’til Hillary decided to run. But it has been, one of the greatest honors of my life to go around and campaign for her for president,” said Clinton as he began his speech.

Political Radar

Anyhow, I just wanted to post that and see how it plays out over the next few weeks. No matter what Hillary decides to do I will support her decision. Even though I decided to back Obama I have a ton of respect for the Clinton’s. I think that she would make an excellent president (or VP) and I hope that her supporters are mature enough to realize that no matter what the last thing our nation needs right now is 4 more years of failed conservative policies.

I will go on record and say that I can’t see Hillary dropping out today with Montana and South Dakota voting tomorrow. After those voters opinions are counted and weighed I can see her dropping out and supporting Obama.

Let me know what, if anything, you think this means.

Sleater-Kinney Song Stuck in my head

Could do worse. Sleater-Kinney is/was an amazing band that has been broken up now for the past two years. This weekend I was listening to some of their stuff and now this song is stuck in my head. Normally listening to it over and over again gets it out but that hasn’t worked. So I’m trying to spread the joy and maybe that will help.
