Roberts and Rehnquist.
What are we going to do?

I know women can make a difference. So many seem to have grown apathetic since the 70's. How do we make people see how important this is? That this is going to fundamentally change our nation for 30 years?

Thoughts?

1. I think we continue to fight...
There's no other choice. We owe it to our predecessors and the women that come after us. I'm not going down without a fight.

But I have to be honest, that if we don't win any footing in our fight, I think a great deal about leaving this country. I hate to sound defeatist, at all--as I am prepared to fight.

After watching the Katrina insanity and now this. This admin. doesn't hold women, minorities, gays in high esteem. Cheney is doing his damndest to reverse civil rights, boy king is doing his best to reverse women's rights.

The Jews and others fled Germany with Hitler--
:shrug:

2. The fight must go on, as they say.
If I don't fight, or at least try to, why am I here?

To those that want to leave--I guess I can't blame you. But I hope you stay. This damage doesn't have to be as permanent as some are predicting. And our side--the SANE side--needs all the help from those who are already aware that we can possibly get.
