The Anchoress
Maybe we ought to just elect some of these GOP women to the senate – they seem to have more spine and maybe even more testosterone than our “elected public servants.”
Take Jane over at Armies of Liberation who was just looked at by al-Jazeera:
…the host said to me: well you’re one of the most controversial guests we’ve had, since a Yemeni newspaper published an announcement of your appearance and we’ve recieved a flood of email condemning your appearence on al-Jazeera and denouncing you as anti-Arab, so welcome Miss Novak. And then he asked me a question. So my opening was, Its very strange that anyone would call me anti-Arab, since I spend so much of my time advocating for the human rights and civil rights of Arab people. (The Yemenis are Arabs last time I checked. So the regime tried to get me pulled from the show.)
…I mentioned al-Khaiwani and the fact that he is still targeted and getting death threats. All of this was translated into my earpiece over the people talking in Arabic, so it was a little confusing.
The host was very balanced and really was fair. Also when Faris the government weasel from the Yemen Observer started attacking me personally, (I think he said I’m a bad writer and a paid operative), the host objected and told him to stick to talking about my ideas and not me personally. Faris couldn’t stop attacking me, its not in his contract, so the host switched to someone else and didnt bring him back on.
Good for Jane Novak, speaking up for Human Rights.
Speaking of conservative women, the Cotillion is up and this week it is being hosted by Stefania who is also posting it in Italian. This week they are talking about guns, child molesters, France, psychological indices of Bush-hatred and more. I’d rather listen to any one of them over a politician of any stripe.
