We may have thought we wanted a woman on a national political ticket, but the joke has really been on us, hasn't it? Are you as sick to your stomach as I am at the thought of Sarah Palin as Vice President, and possibly President, of the United States?
Since Palin gave her speech accepting the Republican nomination for the Vice Presidency, Barack Obama's campaign has raised over $10 million dollars. Some of you may be Republicans, some of you may be Democrats, but none of you can be happy with Palin's selection, especially when it comes to her positions on women's issues. So may I suggest the following fiendishly brilliant alternative?
Make a donation to Planned Parenthood. In Sarah Palin's name. And here's the good part: when you make a donation to PP in her name, they'll send her a card for EACH gift telling her that the donation has been made in her honor.
Here's the link to the Planned Parenthood

Click "Donate" and select "Donate in Honor/Memorium" at the top of the page.
Please note:
You'll need to fill in the address to let PP know where to send the "In Sarah Palin's honor" card. I suggest you use the address for the McCain campaign headquarters, which is:
McCain for President
1235 S. Clark Street
1st Floor Arlington, VA 22202
Feel free to send this along to all your friends and urge them to do the same.
