Quote of the Day 6-15-10
However much heartburn Palin’s “mama grizzlies” give to those who associate feminism with the policies and prejudices of American liberalism, circa 1973, they should recognize their emergence for what it is: not a setback for the women’s movement, but a happy consequence of its victories….
The more strong women in the Republican Party, the better. Even if a candidate’s beliefs vary widely from my own, she still stands as a rebuttal against centuries of oppression. You can take the girl out of the Democratic Party, but you can’t take the feminine viewpoint out of the girl, regardless of her stance on abortion.

Three cheers. This comment really resonates with me. I’m a 53 yo girl who took herself out of the Democratic party a few years back. The feminist viewpoint of equal rights and dignity for women is important to me. I’m also extremely pro-life, don’t like abortion at all.
Sarah Palin’s pro-life feminism has a strong appeal to me, as does her faith in God. If she runs for president, I’ll vote for her.
