Are you a person?

It might be assumed that this battle has long since been fought. I would venture to say that assumption is false.

True the women of today may have the vote, but do they have the power? Certainly those of a “certain class” do as they always have, but do the vast majority of women? Do the women who have achieved some success within parties have any power? If they do, why do all the current leadership races (liberal, Albertan conservative) consist of middle age white men?

(with apologies to Country Joe and the Fish)

Well come on Bev Oda then,
Uncle Steve needs your help again,

Waterboy strikes again

11/28/2006 by Debra

On the November 27 edition of his nationally syndicated radio show, in response to claims made by King Abdullah II of Jordan on the November 26 edition of ABC’s This Week that “we could possibly imagine going into 2007 and having three civil wars on our hands,” Rush Limbaugh said: “[W]ell, let’s just have them. Let’s just have the civil wars … because I’m just fed up with this.” Limbaugh then asserted: “Fine, just blow the place up. Just let these natural forces take place over there instead of trying to stop them.” Additionally, Limbaugh claimed: “[E]verbody comes to us. … So we go and try to fix it and our own people, Democrats and the left in our country do their best to sabotage our efforts, and then we get blamed for trying to clean up the messes that these people start.”

One thing we know about Rush AKA The Waterboy;

“Something’s wrong with his medulla oblongata.”
