There was an accident right outside my window yesterday morning. 2 women, not bad, little fender bender. They both got out of their cars, apologized, "are you okay?" and started exchanging their information. They were both reassuring one another and after they completed all the necessary insurance, phone number stuff, they did something amazing. They hugged. Patted each other on the back and I could hear them tell each other to not worry, have a good day, everything would be okay.
The only thought running through my mind as I watched this amazing display of negotiation and conflict resolution was, "and you don't want a woman president because why???"
Imagine if all our conflicts could be solved with a smile, a hug and attending to business without blame or macho-ness.

Hugs and smiles are lovely. But we both know that being a woman does not always make a person nice.
I'm willing to give it a try. We couldn't do worse than the testosterone running amok now.
True dat, mom.
But I do agree with AM... couldn't be worse than what we got.
