I take a 10-day break and come back to fratboys initiated into the next administration and the Illinois Governor arrested on corruption charges. Change must be code word for same ol’ same ol’.

The Associated Press headline reads, Astronaut outside space station loses tool bag. However, a better title for the article would have been, Helpless women losses tote in space.

I’m taking a well-deserved break this holiday weekend. I just wanted to check in to say good on the Republicans for making history and promoting women within their party. Alaska governor, Sarah Palin, is qualified to be McCain’s VP. Hell, she’s got more experience than Obama. I agree completely with what River Daughter at The [...]
