5. Post a link to your favorite M.O. speech and I will watch it latter.
Only if you feel up to it of course.

If you decide to make the link its own thread, please post a link to that thread as a reply to this post.

7. "22 million women don't have a single paid sick day"
I love this woman for talking about this. That is beautiful.

8. Michelle raises a good point. Just imagine how important
single payer health coverage would be to these same women she is talking about. Maybe she knows that, or maybe that is one of those issues we are waiting for "them" to figure out as Michelle put it.

I would like to hear Michelle engaged in the health care discussion and discuss single payer. She seems to have a very warm human touch and take on issues. I would look forward to hearing her genuine voice on this issue.

9. What I admire about her is she has "been there, Done it".
Sort of a being in the trenches before getting the promotion. Laura "pickels" Bush? Uhhh, oh she was somewhere in the WH having a stiff drink and smoking a cig. Too busy getting blasted on 7 & 7. Am I correct on this?

10. That was always my impression of Laura.
Probably busy reading and exchanging trashy novels with Lynn C. too.
