Let's face it, Sarah Palin is attacked as a bad mother NOT for her working and parenting, but because those on the left side of the aisle don't like her views on abortion or just because she rolls up under the Repulican banner. I am a Democrat and I think Palin ought to be applauded for her hard work and achievement in the world of men regardless of her political position. I may not vote for her, but I wouldn't be upset if she wins. It’s tough enough to have a rationale discussion about stay-at-home versus at-work moms BEFORE you bring politics into the equation.

For most of us, financial resources are a huge factor in choices we make about careers and staying home with our children. But to be told we're not doing the right thing, no matter what we do, sure isn't helping the next generation of women. It's so incredibly disheartening what little progress we've made in 30 years when it comes to pigeonholing one another. Meredith, amen, sister, amen.

I've got my guns a'blazin. You're a working woman, I'll shoot ya down. You stay at home with your kids? I'm gonna take you out too. No woman wins because its one gigantic catfight over who can be better. I think its all crazy. Yahoo! I’ve got my guns a’blazin. You’re a working woman, I’ll shoot ya down.
