They don't care abt someone's copyright infringement, they care abt the video evidence that they are big liars!!<br /><br />Like Cenk - how can these people be SO wrong and still have jobs? And whom else has Rachel asked if they WANT to answer a question before asking it??? Good grief.<br /><br />And, ME, yes, yes, yes, we have so far to go, in terms of women's sports (I guarantee you the pro women get nowhere NEAR the $ the men do, not even close, except maybe tennis).<br /><br />That is a good pt abt Hillary running as a candidate, and as a woman. I will never forgive NOW and NARAL, though, for supporting Obama over her. That was reprehensible on so many levels. Cannot BELIEVE I used to give those groups money!! Talk abt selling women out. No wonder we are still having so much trouble - even the women's groups kowtow to the men. Pathetic. And infuriating...Rabble Rouser Reverend Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14965609706204555067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-208401365281331903.post-6649972789715358792011-06-07T14:21:05.460-04:002011-06-07T14:21:05.460-04:00This is off-topic but when I saw it I laughed so h...This is off-topic but when I saw it I laughed so hard! This is Cenk from The Young Turks speaking on Weinergate...showing POSITIVE PROOF that Weiner was hacked. HA! I can't wait to see his retraction, like there will be one, right? <br /><br />http://youtu.be/t3BPnEwcfvoMary Ellenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18096051756459933731noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-208401365281331903.post-84230944794067324992011-06-07T13:04:23.130-04:002011-06-07T13:04:23.130-04:00It seems clear to me why the US Senators want to m...It seems clear to me why the US Senators want to make it a felony to embed videos...they don't want their lies being spread all over the internet. How many times have they been caught saying one thing while campaigning and another thing after elected? When that shows up on video, they can't hide from it. <br /><br />Regarding the Title IX, I think women still have a long way to go to be truly equal in the sports world...but we're getting there. <br /><br />My biggest concern these days is that I feel that women's groups that fought so hard for women to be treated with equality and respect are losing ground because they lost focus. <br /><br />When they supported Obama, even in view of his campaigning with the song "99 Problems" ("If you're havin' girl problems I feel bad for you son<br />I got 99 problems but a bitch ain't one.") playing in the background, while NOW and NARAL remained quiet, I knew that women's rights had just taken about a million steps backwards. <br /><br />Hillary should have called him on every single misogynist thing and action that Obama took, but she didn't because she was afraid to he a woman running for President and instead chose to be just a "candidate for President." <br /><br />It's not that I don't respect Hillary when she gives speeches like this one, celebrating women and Title IX...but I wish she would think about us more than once or twice a year.Mary Ellenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18096051756459933731noreply@blogger.com
