The DNC brass also includes Nancy Pelosi. Tim Kaine's appointment replacing Howard Dean is no fluke! http://www.usnews.com/blogs/god-and-country/2009/1/5/why-tim-kaine-is-likely-to-expand-democratic-faith-outreach-as-dnc-chair.html If there is any doubt that the DNC had decided long ago to throw LGBT voters under the bus in exchange for “faith” voters read this.

Aurora Leigh is a very long poem which uses nearly every element of epic poetry except subject matter -- rather than writing about war or the founding of a state, Barrett wrote about the personal journey and struggles of a female writer (herself, barely disguised). aurora leigh is a fascinating example of a woman of immense talent audaciously changing a literary form to suit her needs. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aurora_Leigh Will keep the poems coming-- thanks! that’s right oneilma — but Barrett actually wrote almost every kind of poem.

Please keep them coming. Browning is another example of a woman condemned to her husband's larger shadow. He wrote long narrative poetry while she only wrote love sonnets, her most famous being "How do I love thee? Let me count the ways." But there was obviously a lot of feminism in her blood.

My daughter, Dana, was involved with a guy a few years ago. He was emotionally and verbally abusive towards her. She couldn't see it and didn't want to hear it. All we could do was be ready for a call from her. It came one very cold February morning. She was trying to walk home, barefoot and wrapped in a blanket. She was sleeping when he grabbed her and tried to strangle her. She fought back and was lucky enough to get out. Despite a no contact order the jerk managed to contact her and somehow convince her that it was all a mistake. This incident really changed her attitude. She is married and has a little girl of her own. She also has in place an exit plan. for her and her daughter. So far there has been little indication she will need it, but fully trusting is hard. We are the exit plan of a friend of hers that lives a few houses away. We told this girl, any time, night or day. Most of her friends have set up exit plans as a result of what happened to her.
