The Little Old Lady Who Blogs

I recently ran across this great little blog from an 82-year-old lady named Helen. She says that her grandson taught her how to use a computer so that she could "blog" with her long-time friend Margaret. She got into trouble recently (her hits skyrocketing into the hundreds of thousands) when she called Sarah Palin a bitch (note from the DD: rock on, Helen!). Here is her response to that controversy:

Well this old broad is hurt. Clearly I didn’t start this blog to call Sarah Palin a bitch…or John McCain an ass… or even George Bush a jackass. I am so sorry if I have offended any of you.

I will stop calling George Bush a jackass when he stops calling me a terrorist ("Either you are with us, or you are with the terrorists").

I will stop calling John McCain an ass when he stops calling Barack Obama a socialist at every dog and pony show on the Straight Talk Express tour.

I will stop calling Sarah Palin a bitch when she stops calling Obama a terrorist sympathizer. And I will stop calling Sarah Palin a bitch when she stops calling the parts of the country where I don’t live more Pro-American than the part of the country where I do live.

I am tired of Rush Limbaugh suggesting that feminism is a dirty word. How hard did he fight to gain the right to vote? Or own property in his own name? Or get equal pay for equal work?

And I am tired of Sean Hannity suggesting I am un-American because I don’t think that war is the answer to everything. How many bullets has he taken defending his country in battle?

And I am tired that Sarah Palin can decide what she wants to do with her body but other women can’t make that decision for themselves.

Oh…and one last thing. Elisabeth Hasselbeck is still a moron. There is just no way around that, Folks.
