Upticks in racism?

When Americans find out that Obama backs right wing corporate racist anti worker [manure], they will not vote for him--Rosanne Barr

You can’t shuck and jive at a press conference. All those moves you can make with the press don’t work when you’re in someone’s living room--Andrew Cuomo (via Don Surber)

The American Jewish Congress submitted this understated advertisement about the status of women in Israel to Ms. Magazine. Underneath the attractive photographs of Israel's foreign minister (Tzipi Livni), Supreme Court president (Dorit Beinish), and speaker of the Knesset (Dalia Itzik), the ad reads: "This is Israel." A Ms. Magazine representative, Susie Gilligan, whom the Ms. Magazine masthead lists under the publisher's office, told Ms. Kurlander that the magazine

"would love to have an ad from you on women's empowerment, or reproductive freedom, but not on this."

Ms. Gilligan failed to elaborate what "this" is. (via Glenn Reynolds)
