This is way bigger than what the wammbulance can handle. 51 percent of the population is pissed to the tits at the sexism that the "sweeties" refuse to shut up and "make nice" about any longer. A big American throng of women standing up and delivering a double fisted one-finger salute to the misogyny that this country is in utter denial about and to which no one wants to address at all... and so...

Women Stand Up for Hillary
http://guerillawomentn.blogspot.com/


Women respond to the loud bullies in the male-biased media, who are so devoted to The Chosen One, by standing up for Hillary with full page ads across the country. Not So Fast, the full-page ad in yesterday's USA TODAY reads:

Hillary's voice is OUR voice, and she's speaking for all of us.

We are the women of this nation. We are rich and poor, young and old, married with kids, married without kids, single moms, gay, straight, and widowed. We are every color. We are of every religion. We are from all political parties.

We love our country. Now more than ever, so much of what we cherish is at risk – our homes and our health, our safety and our planet, our children and our values. We raise our voices, in one glorious, defiant chorus, to tell the world that these times demand strength, courage and vision.

And that is why we stand united in our unwavering support for Hillary Clinton.

We want Hillary to stay in this race until every vote is cast, every vote is counted, and we know that our voices are heard.

The ad was paid for by Women Count PAC, a newly formed political action committee which is running similar ads across the country. Women Count was created "to ensure that the 51% of American citizens who are women have their values and votes counted in the political process."

The Obama Campaign have made this division and brought this on themselves they brought race into this campaign and blamed the Clintons . I will hold my nose if he get the nomination and vote for him . I hope the women in this country give all you bloggers hell for what you did to the best women ever to run for the presidential nomination and would have been the best person for the job if the democratic party and media hadn't done the hit job on Hillary

YEAH!!! Here's a copy of just one of many emails I've fired off to NBC:

subject: Matthews venomous gall

Dear Mr. Griffin:

Chris Matthews' sexism and Hillary-bashing is legion, and categorically despised by any thinking people. But it must be your policy to define success not by the truth served the public, but by just how enraged you can make viewers by allowing your pundits to misuse the power of the media and demonize our female presidential candidate.

On the March 24 edition of MSNBC's Morning Joe, MSNBC Hardball host Chris Matthews asserted: "We're stuck in Iraq; 4,000 people are dead now because of decisions made by politicians like the Clintons." Matthews did not explain how "politicians like the Clintons" were responsible for the deaths of "4,000 people" in Iraq, nor did he mention President Bush, who actually made the decision to invade Iraq.

HOW SICK ARE YOU PEOPLE? IT'S TIME TO CALL THE NUTHOUSE AND HAVE THE GUYS BRING THE STRAIGHT JACKETS. YOU GUYS ARE PSYCHOTIC BEASTS WHO LACK ANY REASON AND FUNCTION ONLY IN SOME PSYCHOTIC MISOGYNISTIC BLACKHOLE that sucks the life out of our Country. Whew. It's sooooo sickening. Leadenly so. Shame shame shame on you for condoning this crap and allowing Chris Matthews to keep earning a living doing this kind of reprehensible disservice to our public who it is your job to serve with Walter Cronkite-like reporting, not this Neocon hate propaganda.

This should get you a bonus from your keepers. You succeeded in pissing me off.

Sincerely,

Lené Wangmo

P.S. Tell Tweety I hope he chokes on his venomous gall.

I'm afraid that American women are going to ensure that Obama gets completely embarrassed in the general election. Republicans always win the male vote, but if McCain pulls off winning the female vote, it's all over for the plastic Jesus. Unless there's a major 3rd gender voting bock that I'm unfamiliar with.

This from today:

Among women, Hillary's winning roughly 66% to 34% -- a 40-point spread among women!

Meanwhile Obama is in Iowa getting ready to perform in front of his teleprompter. Rumor has it that Obama plans to give a wondrous speech in which he will talk about Hillary in the past tense and make it known that he agrees with the media that he is The One. The arrogance.

Too bad, Obama, no one is The One until she is certified so at the Convention.

And so Reuters has a poll out today showing Obama leading McSame by 8, & leading HRC by 26 among Dems. The deal is down for the nomination, the odds look good for the general. Sound & fury from Ferraro et al seem to be signifying not so much.
