seriously. If the repukes are going to claim that they are now feminists, I want to see them put their money where their lying mouths are.

As VPOTUS, will Sarah Palin be a traitor or will she be a champion for american women by doing the following:

. fight for economic equality for women in the workplace?

. support a guaranteed right of all employees to request reduced and flexible work hours and flexible work locations?

. support the establishment of a minimum number of paid vacation, sick leave or personal days for all workers?

. support the right of mothers of small children to work outside the home?

. support the coninuation of the Family Medical Leave Act?

. support regulations requiring employers to provide proportionally equal pay, benefits and opportunities for advancement to all employees who work less than full time?

. support making employment discrimination in hiring, firing, pay, compensation and promotion based on an employee's parental status illegal IN ALL 50 STATES??

. support expanding disability and unemployment insurance coverage to more workers, including part-time and non-standard workers?

. support a bill to ensure guaranteed child support to lone parents?

. support a care givers bill or refundable tax credits to help those families struggling with keeping full time jobs while caring for aging parents?

. support more funding for over-populated PUBLIC schools, many of which are struggling to keep up with adding new technology and new textbooks?

I think it would be pretty easy to make up some playcards with some of these issues to take to McCondo/Palin rallies and ask them up front what exactly they do plan to do for women. Make the repukes put up or shut up. Will they shove us aside at the rallies? What good would that do for their reputation with the american woman voter?
