Eve Ensler takes her act to New York. Is this what they mean by "swing voters?"
The Rush Limbaugh Show/news item read on his show | August 19, 2004 | Gerard J. Perry Jr.

Alright, I'm not even sure how to go about posting this baby, especially considering the delicate nature of the subject matter. So, I'll attempt to tread as lightly as possible, without offending anyone's sensibilities and hopefully, without incurring the wrath of the omnipotent Admin Moderators.

Earlier today, I was listening Rush's program, when I heard him read an item about Eve Ensler's most recent effort to energize the supposedly disenfranchised women's vote.

She hopes to do this by staging yet another "V Day" celebration, on this occasion, one specifically tailored to increase voter turnout among single, urban, putatively liberal woman who would otherwise not participate in the upcoming presidential election.

Of course, "Hanoi" Jane Fonda is serving as Ms. Ensler's field commander-pardon the language, but that's the only analogy that immediately springs to mind-in this little endeavor and she has gathered together a veritable galaxy of clueless B-list celebrities to join in the cause.

I'm curious as to what you folks think about this little spectacle.

Will John Kerry be swept into office on a "V" shaped tide? Or, will the best efforts of dimwitted liberal playwrights/artists fall on deaf ears?

Let the debate begin!

Okay, so this thread was posted by someone else over four hours ago.

At least I'm cutting down on my response time.

By this time next year, I might actually be able to post a thread that people will want to read.

Keep your fingers crossed folks.

Probably.
The most rabid of them that I have run into are also the least likely to have anything to do with the 'evil' male creature.
And blame their own marginalisation on everyone but themselves and their politics.

Okay, it's official.

My threads suck.

That being said, I hereby bequeath this space to anyone who wants to get up on a soapbox and pontificate.

It doesn't matter what your particular hobbyhorse is.

You wanna plug Linux, go ahead.

You wanna speculate on whether Moqtada al-Sadr is going to wind up being an even bigger fat-ass than Abu Hamza, that's your prerogative.

You wanna delve into the minutiae of Michigan politics, go crazy.

You wanna bash Keyes, feel free.

Conversely, you want to praise Keyes and the sweat off his brow, go bonkers.

You wanna boast about Brisbane, feel free.

You wanna divulge heretofore unknown facts about McGreevy's strange sexual predilections, I give you my blessing.

My point is, I don't care anymore.

So have at it!

I CLAIM THIS THREAD ON BEHALF OF THE RKBA!

-good times, G.J.P. (Jr.)

isn't it neat to see him taking his first awkward steps towards manhood?

I feel like Batman must have felt when Robin began shaving...

Ooh.

Do I even want to know what that means, or is it best if I just let it be?

Some people make the rest of nursing mothers look bad! I think they must seek out situations where they can offend and be offended. I've nursed seven kids, and never even heard a disagreeable comment!
