This piece is written by Rebecca of Sex and Politics and Screeds and Attitude, Cedric of Cedric's Big Mix, Kat of Kat's Korner, Betty of Thomas Friedman is a Great Man, Mike of Mikey Likes It!, Elaine of Like Maria Said Paz, Ruth of Ruth's Report, Marcia of SICKOFITRADLZ and Wally of The Daily Jot. Unless otherwise noted, we picked all highlights.
"I Hate The War," "Iraq snapshot," "Economic melt in the Kitchen," "Robin Morgan, kiss my Black ass.," "Robin Morgan better get her act together," and "Thoughs on Robin Morgan" -- Sucks to be Robin Morgan. Whether it was C.I., Trina, Betty, Marcia or Elaine writing, the entire community was calling her penis waxing ways out. Oh well, maybe she'll get something out of it. A half and half? Who knows. But no one will ever perk up when her name is mentioned in the hopes that she has something worth saying to express. Big disappointment. And how old is she? How old does she think she's going to live to be? Going out like a coward. What a sad, sad day.
"When feminist 'leaders' lie," "katha pollitt and other bitches," "Monday feminist post," "Sexism and classicism" and "Naomi Wolf needs to get medical help" -- Marcia, Rebecca, Elaine, Mike and Ruth weigh in on feminist issues . You know the ones Women's Media Center can't cover because they're too damn busy dedicating themselves to ripping apart a woman. What a proud moment for the Sour Grape Girls.
"The unlistenable KPFA"and "KPFK: Disaster" -- Kat and Ruth weigh in on public radio -- the so-called people's radio -- which, when not begging, is perfectly willing to LIE and LIE some more.
"Plane ride reactions and inept Scott Shane," "Why I think Palin won the debate," "My grandparents say Palin won (I agree)," "My focus group scores Palin the winner," "Biden gets a big topic wrong" and "THIS JUST IN! PRECONDITIONS THROWS JOE!" -- Mike, Marcia, Kat, Cedric and Wally weigh in on the Democratic-Republican debate last week.
Isaiah's The World Today Just Nuts "Boys Do Cry" -- Isiah's comic about the tearful Joe Biden.
"Kat's Korner: Chris Martin's cold play," "Kat's Korner: Hold Me Down" and "Kat's Korner: Aimee Mann ain't smiling" -- the first is Coldplay and went up Sunday (we noted it last week), the second is Augustana and went up Monday and the third is Aimee Mann and went up last night. Three CD reviews from Kat. And, keep it on the down low, she thinks she may have another review this month. We're not joking. A new CD has captured her attention. And, if she can ever find the notes she did on Madonna's Hard Candy, she may type that up as well. (Ava and C.I., on the road with her when she wrote it, say it was hilarious.)
"Gaffe prone Biden" & "THIS JUST IN! BIDEN MAKES ANOTHER GAFFE!" -- Cedric and Wally cover the political equivalent of Danger Prone Daphene from Scooby Doo.
"ralph nader, the lenny bruce of politics " -- And the second most requested post of the week (C.I.'s "I Hate The War" was the most requested), drum roll please, Rebecca's post on independent presidential candidate Ralph Nader.
