#1 For sheer mental vacuity, this is right up there with Jane Fonda's "volcano that will erupt in a flow of soft, hot, empathic, breathing, authentic, vagina-friendly, relational lava that will encircle patriarchy and smother it" speech.

#2 I wonder at what point 'feminism' went from irate bra-burning to giggling whilst flashing our tight panties?

#3 Tim Blair has a link to the group's homepage, complete with photo gallery. How do you say this, um, delicately? . . . Ladies, if you're going to flash your undies as a political protest, you might want to choose flashers who, uh, look good doing it. 'Cause you don't.

#8 It's difficult to tell who is advancing the feminist cause more ably, Elizabeth Eve or Madonna.

#10 Some of the panties look like granny panties. They should make thong versions and sell them at those strip clubs trying to get folks to register to vote to get Bush out of office.

#11 Another fine example of how intellectually bankrupt the left has become.

#12 Elizabeth Eve never thought of herself as an exhibitionist. But these days, the 33-year-old history professor with the gold nose ring can barely contain the urge to lift her skirt and flash her skivvies.

Sounds like she's not quite mature just yet......assuming that such an event is in the cards for this person.

#13 . . .the 33-year-old history professor with the gold nose ring

Never trust any woman with anything pierced other than her ears!

#14 "And when I got done teaching my class on 'Imperialism,' I went to my next class and taught 'Lesbian Decadence and Political Under~~wear~~cover Techniques for the Promotion of Cultural and Societal Deconstruction.' It was a lot of fun. We had a good time laughing and being kind of wild. And then I figured out how I could benefit from capitalism, which I despise, and make a tiny little fortune selling my panties! And the whole time it was so fun and so thrilling to show my panties. And I liked it when other girls showed their panties. And I liked it when the other girls liked it when I showed my panties. And I liked it when the crowds cheered when we showed our panties. And I liked thinking about panties. I liked thinking about panties all the time. Then I made a discovery. It's all about me and my panties, and about the panties of my 'sisters.' and about our need to voice our political opinions with our panties. And it also gives me a really great method for scoping on possible future sex partners when I look at their panties. And I liked it when I flashed my class of college students, and their mothers didn't even know. It was revolutionary. I showed my panties as a sign of being upset, and everyone liked it. I just stood there, and showed them my panties. I stood there a long time. And then I showed them the opposite view. It was just me and my panties and the other girls sitting, watching. Watching my panties. (There were some boys there too, but I wasn't really thinking of them.) And then it came to me. I thought, 'If a lot of people get into this, it will make me feel like I've done something important.' Because my panties are important. And I'm sure I'm going to change the world. I'm going to change everything! I'm so excited! And to think it all started with my panties. Now I want to inspire others to be as bold as I am, with their panties! And my panties are what's going to do that. In fact, when I go to my job as a photo editor, I feel good knowing my panties are with me, and that I've been able to tell Bush just what I think of him with my panties. I've started to show my panties to my fellow workers when I'm in the restroom. I can always tell who the conservatives are when I do that. They just leave, or roll their eyes. They're no fun at all. But some of the other girls giggle. I like that. And they ask me where they can get some of those kinds of panties, and how they can be more like me. That's when I tell them about "Panty Power" and demonstrate. This panty freedom is just exhilarating!"

"And theyâve also designed panties for first-time voters that read "My Cherry for Kerry."

First-time voters? Uh-huh. Okay. Okee-do-kee. Now we see where this is going. "Photo-op central" for J F'himself-when-he's-not-too-busy-with-interns-Kerry. (But I think this campaign would have appealed more to Clinton. "Take the Pill--Be ready for Bill," "My Clit for Clinton," "This Babe's Buns Belong to Bubba" . . . ) OTOH, this really helps with the image of Kerry's campaign. Dignity is such a bore. I think they should keep it up. The "panty brigade" should be at every Kerry rally, because everybody is going to listen to them and what they have to say about Kerry and Bush. A brilliant strategy! "Sometimes we do wonder, âIs this weird? . . . " said Elizabeth, shifting again on Tashaâs couch. No way, ladies! As you said yourself, and have observed ". . .it seems to be a turn-on. So many people are drawn to us." Keep it up! People are counting on you, and time's running out. The election is drawing close. You've got to do your part for the Kerry team. You wouldn't be able to live with yourself it you let him down now. Remember, the ACLU and the NAACP are counting on you too. You've got to wonder how many people, before now, have passed those organizations by as being too "establishment." It's really great that you're working together.

After reading this article--and it was a tough decision, believe me--I'm forced to admit that I guess I'd rather display the flag of our country to make a political statement. For some reason, I think it says more. But . . . that's just me.

#15 Have you gone thru a mourning phase, ex-lib?

Or did you just shake your head and say What kind of bizarro world did I live in?

#16 Anon2U: I have no idea WTF you're talking about, (a mourning phase?) but if you're confused about this piece--I was doing a satire/expose of the article above, outlining what these people are really like, as if everything they said was recorded for our "reading pleasure." I mean, if they're into "peeking" I thought I'd give it a go, and "peek" too--into the inner machinations of their demented minds. Understand? The second part is my own opinion, and a little encouragement to the "panty girls" to "help" the DNC with their "ideas" to promote their candidate.

And the world of the LLL is pretty bizarro, as you put it.
