  • Vindication? Nope, pontification

    Passion is not in the least bit inconsonant with genuine feminism. Studies and, better yet, women themselves, will say in fact that power and accomplishment and bumped-up self-esteem combine to create a very flammable fuel for eros. I posit that the writer, Cristina Nehring, is confusing the agitated symptoms of low self-regard (drug use, ...

  • How Obama might boost jobs for women

    I was sorry to see that Linda Hirshman's article didn't propose any substantial ways that the Obama jobs program might be changed to increase the number of women who'd be helped by it. Give libraries and a green jobs corps all the money you want, and you aren't going to come anywhere hear the money needed by the auto companies, Wall Street, and ...

  • Good Questions. I Would Like to See Eliot Spitzer a Senator

    Sometimes, you judge a politician by that politician's enemies. Spitzer has all the right enemies, including the ''Masters of the Universe'' on Wall Street, who cheered and toasted his political demise recently, and then promptly threw our American economy ''under the bus.'' Besides, if Bill Clinton can make a political comeback, why not the ...

  • Re: The Dignity of Women

    Please ID the 40 things you found offensive. Your essential feminity derives from your proceative powers and this is what defines you and diffferentiates you. To turn the vessel of life into a dark chambe of death is morally offensive to the Creator and an abomination on your sex. In that abortion is the greatest offense to the dignity of women.

  • The Dignity of Women

    I have always found it odd that those who would seek to advance the cause of women would do so at the price of debasing that most fundamental quality that separates them from men: the womb. God created and exalted women by giving them the keys to reproduction and made them the vessel of life. It is to me an ironic and sad corruption that the ...

  • Is This for Real ? ?

    I can't believe that with all the issues our country has that what a candidate's wife wears and where it was purchased is of any importance. As long as someone isn't naked and their clothing is clean, I have no desire to know anything more. I am also astonished that once again the American public is trying to make someone conform to ''our'' ...

  • Hostage

    Is Sen. Obama going to be held hostage by the HRC and her supporters because she lost the race fair and square? - without all that convoluted math about her winning the most popular votes - I am still scratching my head over that ploy and how anyone would fall for that. I am a 59 year old white female accountant and I could just never get into ...
