There really is no hope for Andrew Sullivan. After feverishly devouring Sarah Palin's book, Sully tried to write another chapter on Palin's "incredible fifth pregnancy," but alas, the man needs more material. Sarah's world is "so imaginary and magical," and she is such an [...] 
Oprah's final show will air on Sept 9, 2011. TV will not be the same without her. I'm not the only one who's sad to hear it:
Speaking of unhinged grips on reality, Andrew Sullivan has suspended blogging because it is vital that the womb envious man devote all of his time to reading Sarah Palin's book, especially the "fantastic story of her fifth pregnancy." Because the project of exposing the [...] 
Obama says he has restored America's standing in the world. Yeah, well, I think Michael Moore has a better grasp of where America stands.
And I thought the cover of the latest Newsweek signaled a new low in what passes for American journalism. Hah. Inside the once reputable news magazine, readers are treated to the Sarah Palin-As-A-Slutty-Schoolgirl Doll! (p. 33, illustrating Christopher Hitchens’s article.) [via Media Matters] [...] 
What do Sarah Palin and Hillary Rodham Clinton have in common? For starters, how about the fanatical misogynistic disdain and contempt of the likes of Eugene Robinson, Chris Matthews, Andrew Sullivan and Newsweek's Jon Meacham? All of whom remind me relentlessly that I am beyond [...] 
Yesterday, on ABC’s This Week with George Stephanopoulos, the male pundits prayed that Sarah Palin will go away. The men wondered aloud: Why are we talking about Sarah Palin? There are so many important issues to talk about. 
Broadcasting phony half nude images of women politicos is what passes for great moments of journalism over at sexist MSNBC. In the clip below, good old boy Dylan Ratigan treats his viewers to photo-shopped images of Sarah Palin -- in a bikini and in a [...]

Levi Johnston took his clothes off for the Playgirl photo shoot yesterday, according to folks who caught up with Johnston at the "Fleshbot awards." As speculated earlier, the timing certainly suggests that Levi is indeed planning for his Playgirl photo spread to be published [...] 
MSNBC's Nancy Snyderman and NOW President Terry O'Neill discuss anti-choice lawmakers and the Stupak Coat-hanger Amendment, in the video clip below. The women agree that the IRS should investigate the undue influence of Catholic bishops on Congress. 
Kate Michelman (former president of NARAL) and Frances Kissling (former president of Catholics for Choice) take the Democratic Party and President Obama to task for their betrayal of women: 
Oprah talks about her encounter with and interview of Sarah Palin in the video clip below. Palin wrote on Facebook:
Digby speaks for a flaming chorus of women who have had it with a male-dominated culture that bends over assbackwards to accommodate every real and imagined need of men while balking at the most basic of services for women:
The system is rigged. This video is a lot more lighthearted about that fact than I feel. 
Uh-0h. Sean Hannity has been caught in the act of making up some more faux news. No surprise. Fox News holds the record for manipulating the news. In the video clip below, the world's favorite media critic Jon Stewart presents the evidence and demonstrates conclusively' [...] 
Rihanna, Euna Lee and Laura Ling, Maya Angelou and Amy Poehler were among this year's deserving winners. Just for fun, the video below is comprised of highlights from Glamour's Women of the Year Awards. Bill Clinton was there, as were most of the award winning [...] 
"There’s no question that Hillary Clinton would have fought for our rights. There’s no question that she would have understood the devastating implications of the Stupak-Pitts amendment. She would not have countenanced the Democratic leadership."
This is really odd. In the video clip below there is an actual panel of women discussing women's rights. On a cable news channel?!? I almost fell off my chair. Granted it's on CNN's poor sister channel HLN, but still, broadcasting women talking about women's [...] 
Alice Rossi's The Feminist Papers was one of my first favorite feminist books. She made a huge contribution. She will be missed: 
File this one under where's that desperately needed 3rd party? And whatever happened to NOW's 1990s discussion about starting a women's party? 
Just when you thought we had finally buried that insufferable patriarchal tradition of declaring that all the best thoughts, all the best books were written by the men . . . along comes sexist Publisher's Weekly.
Saturday Night Live spoofs the Fox News crew. Glenn Beck, Greta Van Susteren, Karl Rove, Joe Trippi, Shepard Smith and friends spin, and celebrate!, the latest election. Funny. 
The health care reform bill passed and it's a bipartisan bill - one (1) whole Republican came aboard. Thank Gawd the Dems made all those compromises! [Update: House Democrats pass healthcare reform for men.]
The anti-choice Stupak Amendment -- "a dramatic departure from current law which would restrict a women's right to choose" -- passed 240 to 194. If this measure becomes law, private insurance companies will have to drop the abortion coverage which they currently offer.
What's a little thing like a constitutional right when it applies to women only? Catholic Bishops were afraid that our Democratic controlled Congress might forget who's important when it comes to alleged health care reform. Women? Or the Church? 
This is the woman who stopped Major Hasan from killing yet more innocent soldiers at Fort Hood yesterday. 
Hillary Rodham Clinton is on the cover of this week's Time Magazine. I haven't read the cover story yet, unfortunately it's written by Joe Klein.

The campaign to overturn Maine's same-sex marriage law won last night with heavy help from the Catholic Church. It's hard to understand why, in 2009, the State gets away with giving tax breaks to political organizations that call themselves Churches. 
V premiers tonight. The show is said to be all about how an alien or space lizard, disguised as a charismatic leader, charms a planet full of suckers. [Trailer]

In the video clip below, a rape victim asks Senator David Vitter why he voted against the right of rape victims to have their day in court. Senator David "Small Penis" Vitter appears unsympathetic to say the least. The Shameless Senator was [...] 
I used to be a fan of Family Guy, that was before I noticed that the show is one big misogyny festival. Move over Bill Maher! Speaking of broadcasting misogyny across the nation, a recent report finds that violence against women on U.S. television [...]
This is funny. SNL presents a Sarah Palin spoof which portrays Palin as so powerful that all of civilization would crumble were she to become president.
