OK just one more Palin thing....

I got this letter from Momsrising today and this sums up my crucial point about Palin.

Dear MomsRising.org member,

Did you see that?! Last night we watched Gov. Palin, a self-proclaimed hockey mom, accept the Republican nomination for Vice President.

As we watched Gov. Sarah Palin's speech, we were dazzled to see a mom on center stage with a baby in her arms, but we didn't hear much about the issues that mothers care about and deal with each and every day. We didn't hear what she's going to do about the fact that a child is born every 41 seconds in our nation without healthcare; or about how she'll address the fact that too few parents have access to affordable early learning/child care for their children. We want to know what she's going to do to make sure mothers stop getting paid less for the same work as men just because they have children.

Ask Gov. Palin where she stands on critically important issues to mothers. See and sign the letter at: http://www.momsrising.org/WhereDoesSheStand
