1. The LA NOW president is a right wing freak
who is gaga over Palin and has appeared at one of the rallies, endorsing her.

The state NOW doesn't endorse Palin. The state NOW, like the national NOW, endorses Obama.

Meghan needs to learn the difference between one right wing freak and the whole of an organization. Then again, maybe she's looking for a future as a paid right wing liar.

3. Meghan McCain is pretty liberal
Probably votes Democratic. But Daddy's running for President, so she's officially a Republican.

The Bush girls were also reliably known at their colleges to be quite a bit more liberal than their idiot father.

--p!

8. What message do we need to send to the 'future women' in America?
Idunno, maybe that they should be absolutely sure that gender reassignment is the right move for them?

:rofl:

10. No local or state affiliate of NOW, including LA NOW, endorses or supports the McCain/Palin ticket
Statement from CA NOW President, Patty Bellasalma:

A member and officer of the Los Angeles NOW chapter, Shelly Mandell, recently introduced Governor Sarah Palin at an event in Carson, California. Ms. Mandell was speaking as an individual and was not authorized to represent NOW, the NOW PAC or LA NOW in any capacity in connection with a federal candidate endorsement. As NOW President Kim Gandy said upon Palin’s selection , "Not every woman supports women's rights."

The use of Shelly Mandell’s Los Angeles NOW title was apparently intended to mislead the public, and indeed has resulted in local television outlets and internet reports misstating that LA NOW has “endorsed” Sarah Palin or that she has a record of supporting women’s rights. This in fact is not the case.

As President of California NOW and as a member and officer of Los Angeles NOW, I can assure you that there is no local or state affiliate of NOW, including LA NOW, which endorses or supports the McCain/Palin ticket.

11. They just lie and lie and lie and lie, figuring the American people are too stupid
to know they're being lied to.
