Beside the point I guess. This reminds me-- I need to renew my subscription.

I stopped reading both Time and Newsweek some time ago. But many people do. And having powerful political women on the cover you'd think they'd jump at the chance.

Of course Sarah Palin was on both Time and Newsweek. Lord, lord.

Ain't that the truth! Says it all, really, doesn't it? That *that* is the kind of woman who gets covers? Yeah...

I can't stand Maher either, but somehow, his doing this, raising that question... it gives me a little hope.

I'm feeling distinctly hopeful today.
