5. thank fucking god!
I know feminists have stated men have to get their own house in order -- and they do -- but near term, I agree with Edward James Olmos, who said, in an interview regarding "American Me," (and I paraphrase), "I hate to tell you, ladies, but you're the ones that are going to have to save the world."

14. Martin Sheen said the same thing a few years ago to a CNN
reporter when he was in FL campaigning for Janet Reno.

Just one reason I love him.

18. Yep. It's way past time for a woman president, but must admit
being a woman myself I'm not thrilled with the names Clinton and Rice being the only ones we have to consider. Of course if that's the choice, I'll damn sure go with Clinton but there's just so many more out there....we should really start paying attention to other names.

23. Medea Benjamin, Arundhati Roy
I'll add Helen Thomas, Arianna Huffington and Molly Ivins as women who at least will write the truth.
