in Sarah Palin is Not a Feminist on Menstrual Poetry
Sarah Palin is not a feminist. She supports "abstinence" only programs in schools. Now we know how well that worked with her own daughter. Nice that they can afford to bring another mouth to feed into the world. Not every woman can afford another child even if she's married.
McCain has voted numerous times against funding for teen pregnancy education programs; he's voted against funding programs (like Planned Parenthood) that provide breast and cervical cancer screening. And he's voted against allowing MILITARY SERVICEWOMEN from getting an abortion at an overseas military hospital even if THEY PAY FOR IT THEMSELVES. So the women who chose to serve our country get NO CHOICE when it comes to choosing to be a mother or not. McCain/Palin- no way!! Besides she's not qualified to step into the Presidency if necessary on Day Two.

in And She Did So Much While Pregnant! Right? on Menstrual Poetry
I just heard on the news that Bristol is pregnant. I would say this is pregnancy # 2 from looking at pictures of a post-pregnancy Sarah and Bristol and baby http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=117egpk&s=4 . Click and paste and see for yourself. There's also a photo on internet of Sarah when she was 7 months pregnant with another child and she looks it! Here it is http://d.yimg.com/us.yimg.com/p/ap/20080831/cap...
As far as giving Sarah a choice, Palin is on record during her Gubernatorial run that she would be "against abortion even if my daughter were raped'! So there you have it. No choice, no matter the reason.

Janet, that is some excellent picture-finding. that's extremely compelling. and now poor Bristol is pregnant *again*, does Mom realize this is a really bad thing? two babies by age 18? that's a simply horrible thing to inflict on your kids by denying them access to birth control and sex education. I'm not going to say her life is "ruined" but it's certainly indicative of the terrible damage that this mindset can do.

I doubt B is pregnant now. Cover-up of a cover-up.
Would you please tell me what a feminist is ? ANYONE ?
The fact is that it’s pretty generic… many pro-life advocates call themselves feminists too. After all – choice includes choosing life as well as abortion. A woman in the 1800’s was repressed and denied rights…. So if Sarah has a gun and goes to shoot things… Is she a man, a tomboy, or a feminist? If Sarah goes after political position, which at one time was denied, what is she? Just because she may not have the same beliefs as someone else doesn’t preclude her from that label.
As for me – I will respect your opinion and Sarah’s.
Personally – I think we need to step out from behind these labels and own up to the rights of individuals regardless of race or gender.
