Dummies in the White House
I was extremely disappointed and offended this afternoon when I listened to a report on NPR saying that some republicans in the white house want to limit the kinds of jobs women can have in the military. Personally I never intend to join the army, but I think just the principle of keeping women out of those jobs (the ones they consider most dangerous) is very insulting. It sounds like it won't get passed, but if it did it would definitely be a step back for the progress women have made concerning their roles in this country.
Also, in relation to her AP US final project (on the Bush family, which should contrast nicely with Kate's project on the Kennedy men) Julie gave me this link which she assures me is amusing (it's our president in an interview, how could it not be funny?).
