I'm a die-hard feminist, political junkie, and Red Sox fan living in DC where I work in political consulting and PR. I tried to start a real blog, but then I realized I was too lazy and/or busy.

Her statement was incoherent, bizarre and juvenile. The text, as posted on Gov. Palin’s official website, uses 2,549 words and 18 exclamation points. Lincoln freed the slaves with 719 words and nary an exclamation; Mr. Jefferson declared our independence in 1,322 words and, again, no exclamation points. Nixon resigned the presidency in 1,796 words — still no exclamation points. Gov. Palin capitalized words at random – whole words, like “TO,” “HELP,” and “AND,” and the first letter of “Troops.

Op-ed Contributor: We the Bachelors (NY Times)

As we commemorate Independence Day, we often remember the familial connections of our founders: John and Abigail, George and Martha. It’s a way to integrate women into the story, but also reminds us that the delegates were working not for themselves but for future generations. Single men fall out of this narrative, rebuked by the Revolutionaries and historians as selfish men who chose personal pleasure over duty to country.

enjoli: haguenite: I’d like to invite every slide-loving Tumblr to come to Williamsburg next year so we can do this. Seriously, I’ll go. I tried to organize a water slide trip one year, but it’s hard to accommodate the schedules of so many people. I’m so there.
