Sarah Palin said what?
Hmmm... I think she is kind of missing the point of that whole silly First Amendment thing.

Undecided voters...
I look at these people and can’t quite believe that they exist. Are they professional actors? I wonder. Or are they simply laymen who want a lot of attention?~Dave SedarisTo put them in perspective, I think of being on an airplane. The flight attendant comes down the aisle with her food cart and, eventually, parks it beside my seat. “Can I interest you in the chicken?” she asks. “Or would you prefer the platter of shit with bits of broken glass in it?”
To be undecided in this election is to pause for a moment and then ask how the chicken is cooked.
I saw the sign...

The Sarah Palin Interview

About Sarah Palin
As a 78-year-old white woman, raised in a fundamentalist Protestant church and who worked full-time while raising a disabled child, I have some understanding of where Sarah Palin comes from. But in no way does she speak for me; not politically, ethically, or morally. In fact, she and her running mate, John McCain, represent the antithesis of most everything I learned from my grandmother, Josie Warren Hopkins (1875-1945). My grandmother was a housewife living in a small village in central Maine in the early days of the 20th century. She was a suffragette who worked very hard to make possible a woman's right to vote. But I can see her rolling wildly in her grave if American women use their precious vote to elect a McCain-Palin ticket.Given McCain's age, health issues, and family history, Palin could end up in the Oval Office. And then where would we be? Public education would become even more a disaster than it is now--creationism being added to the curriculum, sex education being removed, global warming dismissed as a fantasy, excellent books being banned from the library! Equality in this country is banned when she speaks out on same-sex relationships. And I shudder to even consider what she might do with her lack of understanding of foreign policy. No, for the sake of my grandma Josie's grandchildren, great-grandchildren, great-great grandchildren, and the great-great-great grands coming along, and for the sake of your own descendants, please join me in saying a loud and clear "NO" to Sarah Palin and to John McCain.

Barack Obama on BlogHer
This is an amazing interview of Barack Obama and BlogHer! I just think it is incredibly cool that he took the time to speak with a womans blogging network.
