How Does She Do It?

Trying this again -- watch this before you vote!

The technology gremlin undid my effort to post the Gloria Steinem message on why this election is so important particularly for women, so here's a second try. Paste the URL into your browser to connect to my site, where the video is accessible but for some reason is not being transmitted via feed. I promise you'll be glad you spent the 3 minutes watching.

Vote! It's our best weapon in the war on women!

Yes, my friends, it is time to awaken the beast.

The beast is me, this blog, in case the metaphor was wasted.

Using this platform for a last pitch to help get our President re-elected.

Could there be any more at stake? Sure, 4 years ago the issue was a war being fought overseas, and yes I had mighty strong opinions about that. This time, the war is being waged here, and women are caught in the crosshairs (or more accurately, the pubic hairs).

Ouch!

There are some great videos circulating the web, some of which will make you laugh.  But here’s one that I almost guarantee will bring tears to your eyes.

Gloria Steinem on the importance of this election.  Take 3 minutes to watch it. NOW.  And then pass it along, especially to women you know in Ohio, Florida, Virginia, Colorado and Nevada.  Those women will determine who wins this election, and this is a goldmine of information to influence their votes.

 

And as for “How Does She Do It?” – yes, I’ve taken a long break.  Somehow, the future of the free world has distracted me.  But I am in the process of interviewing and writing the story of a nun – a story that has taken more than the usual amount of time but has offered more than the usual amount of eye-opening.  Stay tuned.

In the meantime, let’s win this darn thing and start doing the work that is far more important to all of us.
