Yesterday I wrote that I don't want a president who goes off half-cocked or half-vagina'd either

It was in a discussion comparing Obama's and Clinton's responses and actions when under fire. I deleted that post because, although I'm a girl and I thought it was funny, I thought that maybe someone else wouldn't.

I think everyone should take a moment after they post to use DU's self-editing tools (for the low, low price of 0 dollars down, 0 dollars a month) and do a quick spell check and then read over what you wrote. Sometimes giving yourself a minute to re-read what you wrote will show that something written in haste wasn't the snark you thought it was.



7 months and 2 days until we vote for a shiny new president.

3. Yeah, good idea you deleted

Young women should learn to have more self respect. You're a woman - that's a good thing and something to be proud of, not to denigrate or cheapen.
