Elena Kagan
We partied like 6 year old rock stars this weekend (mini-golf, bumper boats, birthday party, beach and boogie boards) and now we are dragging. We’ll be back tomorrow with some thoughts on the Census Bureau data that reveals more women are choosing not to have children.
In the meantime, here are a few interesting stories and tidbits from around the web:
The Senate Judiciary Committee begins confirmation hearings today for Supreme Court nominee Elena Kagan. If confirmed, Kagan will be the fourth women to sit on the high court and it will be the first time there we have a critical mass of women on the bench. To help you follow the hearings, The National Women’s Law Center has published “The Thinking Women’s Guide to the Supreme Court Hearings.”
West Virginia’s Robert Byrd, the longest serving member of the Senate, passed away today at the age of 92. Speculation has begun as to whether or not his passing will affect the Democrat’s financial reform bill and even the Kagan hearings.
From CBS, “Ten Angry Women Stop One Peeping Tom, Say Tenn. Cops” According to police in Church Hill, Tenn. A group of women prevented a suspected peeper from leaving a thrift store until police arrived after one of the women discovered a peep hole in the dressing room. Women can accomplish anything when they work together.
And finally, we are sponsoring a contest this week over at The SkinnyScoop. Answer the question, “Do you think a woman will be elected president in your lifetime?” and you could win a YogiboMax.
