And so we rise to celebrate Aug. 26, the 90th anniversary of the day American women finally won the right to vote. It took nine decades to get a third woman on the Supreme Court. But in politics, alas, we have gone from radical women chaining themselves to the White House fence to conservative women serving tea. Or at least the tea party.

Good grief. What idiot decided to mark the occasion by exhuming Ellen Goodman?

Big deal... we gave women the right to vote and what’d they do?

Passed prohibition!

And we had to repeal that!

Hard to believe that a person alleged to be a serious journalist would make the puff-people at EW look intelligent. What is wrong with the water these people drink?

Aren’t there some studies that show big-government was born when women gained the right to vote? I remember reading that they want security above all things and vote for all things having to do with the government providing a net incase they fall.

What day of the month did the men at Apple come up with the name iPad?

From what I recall, the marketing person at Apple responsible for naming the "i" series products is a woman.

And the feminist Bible must read:

“Wherefore as by one “woman” sin entered into the world.....”(Romans 5:12)

What would Susan B. Anthony make of Sarah Palin as arguably the most (in)famous female politician in the land with her menagerie of groupies? The form-er leader of ``pit bulls with lipstick'' is now a ``Mama Grizzly''...

Susan B Anthony would find much more common ground with Sarah Palin than she would with helen thomas or hillary clinton or ellen goodman or any of the three female impersonators sitting on the supreme court.

A lot of pent up hatred in that article.

Eh. Ellen hasn't changed much over the years. But, the article contained a tiny bit I liked, so it's not her usual washout:

Speaking of which, the Boys Will Be Boys Award can go to none other than baby daddy Levi Johnston. Need I say more? Need anyone say more? Can we send him a piece of woodwork to fade into?

Heh...

Yeah....

It fits.

I just finished college history class(I am an old guy returning to school) and so I get to say outrageous stuff for the fun of it!
