Wow - check this out.
And so ignites the firestorm on one of the most polarizing issues ever (at least among women) outside of the abortion debate - the mommy wars of stay-at-home vs. work-away-from-home... at the highest and most political of levels.
Quick summary – Palin certainly has her own issues to deal with but now people are questioning if she should even take the VP post (implying working moms = bad, especially with her ) is insanity.
I may not be a supporter of McCain-Palin for November's ticket, but I am a supporter of women and their right to choose the path that's best for them - whether they decide to work outside of the home or not.
And for this, I commend Sarah Palin in her efforts to do what she has to do for herself and her family.
Yep. Uh-huh.
Bring it on.

Very interesting indeed how this has all come to political spotlight. Maybe now women's issues can get some serious attention. It is curious that a man would never be scrutinized to the same extent for having high profiled job and having young children. It is sad to see that women are providing the harshest remarks against her decision. Kinda pushes us a few steps back. Too bad we can’t move forward to implement systems/ policies to support the working family.
I find it sad that other women are always the first to critisise, we talk about the sisterhood, but sometimes it really fails us.
Perfect read for me today. What a tangled dilemma this has become. Don't know how it all ends, but you are right, a woman's CHOICE is the only way to go.
(P.S. I have extra respect for you these days Clarissa as I join the working Mom ranks. Holy moly. What a ride.)
