I think that in the discussion of natural problems we ought to begin not with the Scriptures, but with experiments, and demonstrations.”-Galileo

About the site
        
About Glen Rose/Somervell County. Glen Rose has a great number of things to do or see - Big Rock Park, Comanche Peak Nuclear Power Plant, Fossil Rim Wildlife Center, Somervell County Expo Center, Dinosaur Valley State Park, The Promise, Squaw Creek Golf Course, Tres Rios, Oakdale Park, and nearby, one of my favorite places, Rough Creek Lodge. To me, Glen Rose is the start of Hill Country.

You Can't Cry *SEXISM!!! SEXISM* if YOu're Gonna Let Your Repubs Wear These Buttons.
 

You'd stop the RNC people from selling buttons about the Hot Chick.

Bev Flaherty, of St. Paul, Minn., holds up buttons for sale ...

or this

Are we in the "Dude, Where's My Car?" movie?? Yeah, let's put in a woman to be VP because (she's accomplished? we agree with her viewpoint? Nope) she's hot.

For every woman who has ever felt demeaned by a man as being merely a sex object instead of someone who had brains and wasn't just an appendage, would you REALLY want to vote for a party that treats women this way?

And John McCain and his old white buddies need to shut up about sexism unless they're prepared to quit allowing it.

P.S. A litlte more from Joe Klein

The second thing is more insidious: Steve Schmidt has decided, for tactical reasons, to slime the press. He wants the public to believe that there is an unfair--sexist (you gotta love it)--personal assault going on against Palin and her family. This is a smokescreen, intended to divert attention from the very real and responsible vetting that is taking place in the media--about the substance of Palin's record as mayor and governor. Sure, there are a few outliers--and the tabloid press--who have fixed on baby stories. That was inevitable....the flip side of the personal stories that the McCain team thought would work to their advantage--Palin's moose-hunting and wolf-shooting, and her admirable decision to have a Down Syndrome baby. And yes, when we all fix on the same story, whether it's a hurricane or a little-known politician, a zoo ensues. But the media coverage of the Palin story has been well within the bounds of responsibility. Schmidt is trying to make it seem otherwise, a desperate tactic.

There is a tendency in the media to kick ourselves, cringe and withdraw, when we are criticized. But I hope my colleagues stand strong in this case: it is important for the public to know that Palin raised taxes as governor, supported the Bridge to Nowhere before she opposed it, pursued pork-barrel projects as mayor, tried to ban books at the local library and thinks the war in Iraq is "a task from God." The attempts by the McCain campaign to bully us into not reporting such things are not only stupidly aggressive, but unprofessional in the extreme.
