She is much more Religious Right then I like in Conservative politicians, but I still found her interesting.
The new wave of female firebrands striking fear into liberal America
Right-wing radicals are already pinning presidential ambitions on a mother-of-five from Minnesota who calls herself a 'fool for Christ' and condemns Obama as a socialist at the head of a gangster regime

Conservatives say they pushed Dede Scozzafava out of the House race in New York’s 23rd District a week ago because of her left-of-Republican social views — and not because she is a woman.
But the growing schism between the Republican Party’s ascendant right wing and its shrinking moderate core has clear gender undertones — and Scozzafava’s departure raises fresh questions about the GOP’s ability to recruit, elect and even tolerate the sort of moderate women who used to be part of its ruling mainstream.
While Republicans scored a pair of impressive electoral victories in New Jersey and Virginia with solid support among female voters, the events of the last week offer harbingers of serious trouble ahead with the largest swing voter bloc in the country — women.

Or if I should bring it up at all. A few months ago my boyfriend's mother was diagnosed with breast cancer and needless to say it's taken a toll on us both emotionally. She gets plenty of support from family and friends, but for years she's been a single mom and him an only child.

OK, I know this is not smart, but I don't know how to let it go....I am 37 yrs married woman with kids, I might this 25 yrs old guy two years ago...We work together for two years without any problem. He is nice guy and always willing to help anyone. Few month ago, when I had problem with my husband, I was talking to him as a friend (he knows all my family), then suddenly I had some click with him....My life was misable since that day. He has girlfriend who together for 5 yerars and they live together and he told me that they are very happy together. In the past few month, our relationship has passed "just friend". But I can never understand him.

SINCE being bitten by the acting bug, Twilight hunk Robert Pattinson has been cutting his teeth on a role that melts millions of teenage hearts.
A betting man or woman probably wouldn’t have put money on Robert Pattinson being the next big thing. This is a guy who was expelled from school, only joined a drama club because "there were pretty girls there" and, well, isn’t exactly the most classically good-looking bloke around.

In honor of Reading Is Sexy's grand opening, I'm going to start off with the series that's has been holding me in a chockhold for going on 10 years now.
Nora Roberts, writing as JD Robb in her not so far distant future has captured my attention since my very good friend lend me a copy of the 1st of the series, Naked In Death. That copy started me on my 10 year journey of hunting and gathering mission to find and read every one of the books in the series.
