This morning I awoke with a fabulous idea: round-up some great conservative blogging women and highlight the topics they write about. I spent the day gathering links in between completing other tasks, and then discovered that Morra beat me to the punch yesterday. (And for the record, Morra is a hot, woman blogger, too. She just won't admit it.)
Since so many Republican bloggers are men, my idea became a quest for female conserva-bloggers. But I didn't just want to read their words, I wanted to know who these women are. Here's what I've discovered:
Jane of SeeJaneMom describes herself as "Artist, Wife, Mom, 'Right Rational' Conservative, Unapologetic". She wrote an eye-opening post about the terrorist attacks of 9/11 and the attack that killed 333 children at a Beslan school in 2004.
I have had a ragged newspaper photo PROMINENTLY DISPLAYED ON MY DESK that I have prayed over every single day since September 3, 2004 when Islamofacists killed 333 children at their school in Beslan.
THREE HUNDRED AND THIRTY THREE CHILDREN. AT SCHOOL.
I pray over it to remind me that my Government would rather appease the swine that want to bring Beslan home to Smalltown, U.S.A. on a wave of political correctness THAN SAVE AMERICAN CHILDREN'S LIVES.
Raven of And Rightly So! tells us, "I used to be a liberal but saw them for who they really are after September, 11 2001. I consider myself to be a conservative who leans a little to the far right."
She shares her thoughts about the horrible assault of 20-year-old Megan Williams (which BlogHer's Laina Dawes covers here):
Who would have thought that people [who assaulted Williams] would have a combined total of 108 criminal complaints (for six people, which averages 18 counts per person) including manslaughter (pleaded down from 1st Degree murder). WTF? These people are obviously warped individuals bent on criminal mischief to down right torture, and I would bet eventually, murder.
Right Wing Sparkle says she's a political junkie, a reading addict, and a full time volunteer and activist. "My dad was a Senator in the state legislature during the civil rights movement while I was growing up. At 20, I was a Democrat feminist Baptist. Now I am a Republican pro-life Catholic. Who says people can't change??" In a post about the decline of Rudy Giuliani, RWS writes:
I've never understood Rudy's lead. We need to nominate a real conservative. Let's get to it.
K. Priscilla Jones ("KJ") at Media Lizzy, writes about liberals running as Republicans:
When it comes right down to it, the RNC and the California GOP are suffering from the same thing: repeated hijackings by liberals posing as loyal Republicans. I don't see the attraction, as there is a thriving party in California eager to embrace more liberals. This same party is guilty of having run the state into the ground. I ask the liberal "Republicans" to expend your energy in the other party. You are the ones creating the voter apathy among conservatives. Why should they vote for you when you smell just like a Democrat?
Merri Musings tells us, "I'm Republican, although I first registered as an Independent (one step away from my Democratic parents. Heh. I’m pro-life, whether you speak about abortion or right-to-life cases that we’ve seen within the last year." She wrote about her happiness when Chuck Hagel decided not to run for re-election to the senate next year:
It would be gift enough to not have him throw his hat in the ring for president, but to not run for re-election to the Senate? That would be a two-for-one special!!!!!!
Elizabeth of Yeah, Right, Whaever says, "I am a conservative, leaning toward libertarian (except I’m too conservative socially to be one). I’m a fairly strict constitutionalist." She loves to read the news and share links with her readers. She writes:
moveon.org (no I'm not actually going to link them, you silly) got a steep discount from the NY Times for their "Betray Us" ad. Seems odd, considering how desperately the Times needs money.
I love her sense of humor.
