		<description><![CDATA[I really don’t see the harm in Letterman’s joke. I don’t think he meant any harm. We as women want to be seen as equal and we want to be treated like were tough and despite this being a “man’s world,” we can compete with any man! Well, I believe there is a double standard that some of us take, on one hand its okay when so called slander happens to other groups, but when women, particularly white women are attacked, it’s &quot;stop the press time.&quot; It was a joke! If anything it should fuel women to keep going and work even harder. I don’t see how this deters women from pursuing political careers. Harping on this, in my opinion makes this worse. Come on, David Letterman shouldn’t lose his job. The over exposing  of the Letterman joke plays into this idea that we as women are bitter because of Sarah Palin’s (and Hillary Clinton’s) personal, political, and campaign mistakes and perhaps the flaws of the Republican Party. She’s one woman who does not represent us all. As quiet as it is kept, it seems as if there is this Far Right/Women’s movement to somehow vindicate Sarah Palin. Personally, I’m not for it, neither am I buying it! I personally think this debacle is her way if getting press attention; she should be concerned with subscribing to more magazines and newspapers so the next time Katie Couric asks her what she subscribes to, she can answer this question a little more intelligently. Let’s get a backbone ladies.]]></description>
