My New Computer ROCKS

Or pick another good descriptive word that is synonymous with Extra Helpings of Awesome! I just had to say it. I'm so spoiled now. But alas, work beckons. But I'll probably be back to posting regularly now that I've gotten things (mostly) set up and I'm back into my routine.

I haven't been totally idle - I posted at this thread about Obama and his alleged sexist dog whistles. I have something to say about that, in general, and I'll write on that later today.

Cool, now did you have a new baby yet?

Not yet - though it I can guarantee that the baby will come in less than two weeks.

I went and read your posts on that thread at Shakesville. I'm with you - I think the evidence that Obama is deliberately sexist is flimsy, and I think MM is overreacting. MM is quite correct that that sort of remark can be used as a code put-down in corporate America; I've been there and heard that. But, like you, I don't see what it would profit Obama to do that in this campaign, where he has made really intense efforts to keep from anything that looks like a negative campaign. I think it was a slip. But you're tilting at feminist windmills again, DBB...
