It's men, men, men -- "The Dirty Dozen" again and again and again. In other parts of society, women are presidents of banks, heads of corporations and are clawing their way up to financial equality, but show business -- fa-get-about-it.<BR/>With aloha (and some biterness),<BR/>Martha JaneAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34364708.post-19644614719002775592008-11-18T06:56:00.000-08:002008-11-18T06:56:00.000-08:00I watch Rachel Maddow all the time--somehow I miss...I watch Rachel Maddow all the time--somehow I missed the butch Lesbian thing-not that it would have made a difference.<BR/><BR/>Lucky for me I also missed the blow job e-mail.<BR/><BR/>I sure do hope Hillary Clinton is our next Secretary of State.Jenn @ Juggling Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14455967210924573398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34364708.post-22689392577260800312008-11-17T21:19:00.000-08:002008-11-17T21:19:00.000-08:00Bee, they played them here too.

The little girl says "mommy! this means I too can marry a princess" <BR/>Fear, that is how they got Hispanics to vote against Prop 8. How disgusting politics can be! <BR/><BR/>I first saw the commercial while watching TV with my mom who said they had been showing it for quite some time.Beehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12525264720105877075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34364708.post-14487417306936330232008-11-17T19:48:00.000-08:002008-11-17T19:48:00.000-08:00Sexism is the issue, not equal footing.

But I keep fighting and will die knowing that I AT LEAST TRIED.<BR/><BR/>I think the problem is that women are not as ambitious as men and always want to make nice. That really only gets you a job working for a man. Politics is ruthless and most wmen don't have the balls for it.I sat next to a former politician from British Columbia coming out of Vancouver and she said it's a nightmare. She's now in radio!Suzyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00361775888847203043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34364708.post-50196791668882938772008-11-17T19:33:00.000-08:002008-11-17T19:33:00.000-08:00It's not that women don't back women.

It's that the generations born after us (and part of my own, I guess) take for granted the (almost) equal footing we have with the menfolk in today's society.<BR/><BR/>Don't start yelling at me. I know about the pay gap and the political double standard, all right?<BR/><BR/>But I'll bet you that the next woman to run for high office won't even provoke a controversy (due to gender, anyway). Hillary and Sarah have broken down the wall (and suffered for it). It's over, and we've won - all of us.Suburban Correspondenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11488916572135296650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34364708.post-92124106394419445142008-11-17T16:43:00.000-08:002008-11-17T16:43:00.000-08:00Yay, girl power!Yay, girl power!Heidihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08903593840515283971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34364708.post-6975938521365925832008-11-17T12:32:00.000-08:002008-11-17T12:32:00.000-08:00I dont watch Top Chef.
