88 years ago, women fought for YOUR right to vote. It wasn't all about picket lines and letter writing. These women were force fed maggot infested food, beat senseless and hung out overnight, bleeding and starving.

So that YOU could vote. There is no excuse not to vote, ladies. You owe it to our anscestors.

In keeping with the theme of which political candidates are fraternizing with which religious leaders, I thought this might be of interest to some of you. It never ceases to amaze me how some specific incidents are analyzed every which way and rehashed for weeks, while others appear to fly below the radar. Where is the outrage over Pastor John Hagee, whose endorsement John McCain was "honored" and "proud" to receive? Hagee says Katrina was God's punishment for homosexuality, Jews are to blame for anti-Semitism, and Catholicism is the "Whore of Babylon" and "a cult." Hello?!?

Why not equal treatment for all candidates' supporters, ties, and endorsements?
