Ask Your TV Stations Why You Didn't See The Biggest Rally in Alaska?!

This is awesome! Just sent via email. The Alaska Women Reject Palin rally was to be held outside on the lawn in front of the Loussac Library in midtown Anchorage. Homemade signs were encouraged, and the idea was to make a statement that Sarah Palin does not speak for all Alaska women, or men. I had no idea what to expect. The rally was organized by a small group of women, talking over coffee. It made me wonder what other things have sta rted with small groups of women talking over coffee. It's probably an impressive list. These women hatched the plan, printed up flyers, posted them around town, and sent notices to local media outlets. One of those media outlets was KBYR radio, home of Eddie Burke, a long-time uber-conservative Anchorage talk show host. Turns out that Eddie Burke not only announced the rally, but called the people who planned to attend the rally 'a bunch of socialist baby-killing maggots,' and read the home phone numbers of the organizers aloud over the air,

Free Republic ... my ass . Check out that link, seriously. Lipstick republican women for Palin. What these women are talking about is so disturbing, "My husband thinks she's hot." "She doesn't have cankles". "Love her!" "I just ordered dozens of lipstick republican t-shirts for my daughters." "I love her hair". "Those glasses are soooo cute." Not one woman addressed her politics, not one. Insult to injury, they regard her as the new feminist . I'm deeply offended that a woman advocates throwing us back 50-years, is against equal pay, opposed to a woman's right to choice and supports book banning. If you can stomach it, check out the link . If, if, if you can stomach it because you will be super neesh after reading it. In case you missed it on some other blogs, you must read this article found on Acts of Hope regarding White Privilege . Rolling Stone wrote a scanadlicious article about the Stolen Election of 20
