![[Tea Partiers] staging an interesting photo op yesterday at Brother Boehner’s office (love the hats!), personally delivering a plastic fetus and a demand for immediate anti-abortion legislation to Mick Krieger, Big John’s chief of staff with half the D.C. photo corp on hand.
Also, I count eight dudes and two women, both of whom look like they are beyond the child-bearing years. Hmmm.

Sawyer: So, have you thought—how many women is enough?
[pause]
O’Connor: What? [laughter]
Ginsberg: How many women—?
Sawyer: How many women would be enough?
Ginsberg: Nine.
[laughter and cheers and applause]
O’Connor: We’re not there yet. [Sawyer laughs]
Ginsburg: Well, there’ve been nine men there for a long, long time, right? So why not nine women?
[cheers and applause]

Two senators put hold on women's museum - USATODAY.com
A letter from two senators is the only thing blocking congressional approval of a decade-long effort to build a women’s history museum in the nation’s capital. Sens. Tom Coburn, R-Okla., and Jim DeMint, R-S.C., have placed a “hold” on a bill that would sell land near the Smithsonian Institution for the National Women’s History Museum. A “hold” is a Senate practice that prevents bills from passing with unanimous consent — and implicitly threatening a filibuster.

GOP New York gubernatorial candidate Carl Paladino's absolutist views on abortion
- SANCHEZ: How do you feel -- what is your position on abortion? PALADINO: No.
- SANCHEZ: Should a woman have a right to have an abortion if she's -- if she's been raped?
- PALADINO: No.
- SANCHEZ: She should not? She should have to have the baby? PALADINO: And the baby can be adopted, yes.
- SANCHEZ: What if it's -- what if it's a case of incest?
- PALADINO: The baby can be adopted, yes.

Is it really not clear to feminists how the “obesity epidemic” is about reasserting the right to police women’s bodies? Except now, we’re doing it for your health! When people talk wistfully about how “nobody cooks at home anymore” who do you think that “nobody” used to be? When people talk about how kids don’t get the same free reign of the neighborhoods they used to have, who is the unspoken monitor of all that free time? Who has, supposedly, fallen down on the job causing us all to be fat? How is this not prime meat for feminists to sink their teeth into?

Interesting post on how the “obesity epidemic” is a feminist issue.
