When you're a mom, politics get personal.

Girl Fight!

No, actually. No girl fight. As  most of us know, Minnesota Congresswoman and American history mangler Michele Bachmann is running for President. She’s announced this two or three times now and she’s on the road either announcing it more or raising money in primary states as we speak. That’s a good thing because while she’s [...]

Palin-tology

I’ve gone on a weird Sarah Palin research bender the past couple of weeks. I’m not sure what sent me on this knowledge quest: maybe the bus tour, maybe the bells she rang to alert the British that Americans like guns, maybe the feature length film about herself that she didn’t really commission because when [...]

Living Tradition

I just saw this quote from Newt Gingrich and it’s bothering me. “Obama is the most serious radical threat to traditional America ever to occupy the White House.” – Newt Gingrich, quoted in a new book, Subversion Inc., as reported by the American Spectator. Ok, usually, I have to give a lot of credit to [...]

What Did Beauty Queens Evolve From?

If you want to throw up a little in your mouth, watch this video. If you are not interested in throwing up, I can sum it up for you: 51 women talk about whether or not evolution should be taught in schools as if this is a legitimate question with real merit.  All of them [...]

Whose Right to Choose? Hers.

Remember Billboard Douche? If you don’t, read my post about him. Rehashing the details makes me go all incoherent and angry. Anyway, I’ve been keeping one eye on him to see what the outcome of this case is. I really want the billboard taken down on the grounds that he shared private – and possibly [...]

This Week In WTF: Billboard Edition

NOTE: There were a couple of other photos on this post at one point that made speculations about the creator of the original billboard. While I could argue that they were protected speech under the parody or satire allowances, I’m not in the mood to get sued by a goon with a lawyer who takes [...]

One rotten Weiner…

Much to the shock of no one in particular, Representative Anthony Weiner got up on tv today and admitted to sending pictures of his goodies to some woman on Twitter. The reason this is not shocking is because the goody shot has been circulating for a week and Weiner has been obfuscating for almost as [...]

25 Good Government Mandates

Yesterday, I read this little gem from Sarah Palin in the Washington Post. “In my opinion any mandate coming from government is not a good thing,” Palin told reporters outside Bunker Hill in Massachusetts, the latest stop on her whirlwind bus tour up the east coast that began on Sunday. She sure covered a lot [...]

Writers Block

I have the worst case of writer’s block. It’s like the sections of my brain given over to words have been filled with oatmeal instead of ideas. I can’t get into reading anything either because anything having to do with words is such a mental slog.  I keep waiting for everything to shake loose so [...]
