Palin again

I was pretty busy over the weekend (buying a water heater, helping girls get ready for school, [livejournal.com profile] hpalternity) and just checked the news for the first time last night.

Gustav
RNC Convention here in the twin cities
Palin news followup re: her daughter's pregnancy and Obama's reaction

*sigh* Man, as someone who 1) desperately wants Bush and all others of his ilk out of the White House, 2) is the mother of teenaged daughters, and 3) is a feminist who hopes to see a woman elected into the White House sometime in my lifetime, I don't even want to go near that last story. I liked Obama's statement, but alas, that probably won't be the last said on this subject.

*considers saying more*

naahh.

Just--it'll be interesting to see how this political season plays out.

I love your icon. I wish I had a display option for the "Libertarians for Snape" element!

If she keeps sticking to her "abstinence only" sex education, then she's a fucking hypocrite.

And WTF is up with her kids' names?

She slashed funding for teen moms earlier this year. See here.

As you sow, so shall you reap. Literally.
