Posted on: Wednesday, September 10th, 2008 by Barbara Howard

Dear Friends,Since Sarah Palin was added to McCain's ticket, the mean and evil Liberal Left haters have stepped up their assault like never before. The nastiness is at fever pitch. One of the latest rumor is that she was overheard saying "Sambo Beat the Bitch", referring to Obama and Hillary.We can't allow these things to go unanswered and we must be ready to fight for what is right. As Republicans(particularlyBlack Republicans) we must stand up and be counted and aggressively speak out whenever we can.I know I will address it on Friday during my radio show where my co-hosts are Democrats.

Either You Are, Or You Aren't a Renaissance Woman!

A renaissance woman is someone who sets her own agenda for personal achievement and will not allow herself to be manipulated or intimidated by self-proclaimed spokesmen who try and wrap their political philosophies around terms like "equality," "choice," "peace," "tolerance" and "diversity." She understands that she has been created for such a time as this and embraces her destiny as a challenge and not a curse, no matter what her personal circumstances. She is a winner not a whiner, a leader not a follower, a victor, not a victim. She wants to change the paradigm of the feminist movement that has served to marginalize and ridicule women who do not follow their collective agenda.

Millions of women around the country, from all professions, backgrounds and cultures, are courageously picking up the mantel of leadership and virtue, that the feminist movement has squandered. They are providing thoughtful and accurate analysis, on a variety of issues, of where, and who we are as a nation.

Remember, this is not a club. It is a mindset!
