John McCain does not realize that he is alienating the liberal feminists when he says stuff like this, does he? lol.

(((((-Defended his selection of Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin as his running mate and cast her in a fresh ideological role.

"She is a direct counterpoint to the liberal feminist agenda for America," he said. )))))

Well I already did the 'barefoot, pregnant in the kitchen' thing many years ago. While I grew up during the June Cleaver era and truly wanted that lifestyle I recognize that it is not for everyone, especially in today's economy. We cannot go back to a time when that is the only option and sadly losing reproductive choice can mean that for some women. What is left out of the Roe V Wade debate is that women may, down the line, lose birth control options as well. We can all see how the rhythm method works! I may not be much of a feminist but I am enough of a feminist to want more for my daughters and future granddaughters.
