Women's News: Sublime and Heinous

A Chinese cop has taken it on herself to breastfeed as many as nine children either orphaned by the massive quake or whose mothers' are too traumatized to produce milk.

She has a six month old of her own and, much to her chagrin, has become a national celebrity; China's "Mother #1". "I think what I did was normal," she said. "In a quake zone, many people do things for others. This was a small thing, not worth mentioning." She's still nursing two in addition to her own. And elsewhere in chick news?

From Womensnews: "Tanzania's Missing Girls Rarely Raise a Murmur." Girls as young as 2 disappear with such frequency, dusk finds frantic mothers desperately shepherding their daughters indoors. Sometimes they're trafficked but often they're given to witch doctors as sacrifices (like, Biblically) or payment; or they're the victims of child marriage.

What a world women face.






Comments

but they are commies they cannot be doing anything good.

as a child i was taught to hate all commies now it is muslims.

when will this fear mongering end?

when americans begin to see they are being used by fear mongering.

it works on a dumbed down society.

reagan's solution to education in america. just say we will be the best by 2000.

dumb and dumber and americans loved him for his dumb ness.

what are we doing right maybe elect a black man in nov. shove it in the face of the racist and war mongering south.

please note obama is not taking on the industrial military complex. he knows better in their hearts most americans are imperialists. and they dont have a clue they are.

they think that mega military budget is for defense and not offense.

any country that overlooks social programs for its people to promote an offensive military agenda is spiritually defective.

The Communist Mother suckles the world. We all suck at the idustriaslist teats of modern China. Meanwhile, the way it's going over here in America, what with the debt and gas prices, it's getting near time to blacken Mother Liberties tits and turn her out on the street to whore. Sad day's, my freinds, sad day's

From Blacks4Barack !
Demand To DNC: Kick Hillary Out NOW !
Insinuates That Obama Could Be ASSASINATED !
Now, things have gone way too far. Today, in an appearance in South Dakota, Hillary Clinton justified her reason for staying in the campaign by referring to the fact that presidential hopeful 'Robert Kennedy was assasinated in June'...implying that the same could occur to senator Obama. THIS IS SICK !!! Regardless of how the pundits try to spin this as just another misspeak, the statement speaks for itself and displays the diobolical mentality of Hillary Clinton.
It is unclear as to whether she is actually hoping that Obama would be killed, therefore giving her an open path to the Democratic nomination, or if she may be signaling her desire to some sick, warp minded homicidal maniac. Whichever be the case, her statement is automatic grounds for the Democratic National Committee headed by Howard Dean to demand that she remove herself from the race. If he does not, American Democratic should demand HIS stepping down !
This can not be tolerated. Regardless of who you are a supporter of, Hillary, Obama or McCain, ANYONE who would wish the death of another human being in order to win a political position is sick, dangerous, maniacal, duranged and totally mentally and morally unfit for any political position, particularly President or V.P. of the United States.
CONTACT THE DNC....
HILLARY MUST BE KICKED OUT NOW !!!!

Sublime & Heinous.

Isn't that a law firm in San Francisco?

Debra:

What do you mean sacrificed "like Biblically"? I know of no actual sacrifice of human life of anyone in the Bible, other than Jesus, who sacrificed himself for us. Whatever sacrificing of children that is done in Tanzania isn't biblical in any way.

MarthA - try Judges 11.30-40 with Jeph'thah sacrificing his daughter in payment for his victory of the long suffering Amonites.
Also as R Zimmerman put it, "God said to Abraham, 'Kill me a son..". That was only Jaweh's little joke, being such a fun-god sure but Abraham was prepared to do so as a clealry it was a fairly common occurrence.
Get your head out of the crap and try reading newspapers.

It always amazes me how the comments associated with blog entries tend to veer off into something completely different....Having said that, bravo for someone coming up with a practical solution to help her fellow mothers.

You are a hysterical person and no one of substance would take you seriously. If you had bothered to actually read her statement in it entirety, you would not have come to the conclusions you did. Senator Clinton has never and will never advocate that someone should be killed for any reason and if you were not so overtly sexist in your comments and views, you would know that. The primary season will be over the end of the first week in June; I hope she takes her fight all the way to the convention in Denver. Despite everyone's hyper comments, there will be no easy victory for Obama at either the convention or the general election. If Senator Obama can't handle Senator Clinton is a semi-friendly contest now; he won't be able to handle Senator McCain in the fall. I suggest you rethink this strategy of trying to run Senator Clinton and her supporters out of the party. Most of us just refuse to be pushed around, let alone vote for a less than acceptable candidate, just because he is a member of the boys' club.

Oslo police recently released its 2007 Rape Report. The report shows a marked increase in Somali rapists, generally on account of gang rapes. At least ten women were attacked and molested by a gang of Somali men at Sofienberg park in Oslo on Saturday evening. Last year a record-high 161 rapes and 35 rape attempts were reported in Oslo. Over 70% of the rapists were non-Norwegian(e.g. Somali).
