Sent by a friend. Here's something fun to do:

Dear Friends: We may have thought we wanted a woman on a national political ticket, but the joke has really been on us, hasn't it? Since Palin gave her speech accepting the Republican nomination for the Vice Presidency, Barack Obama's campaign has raised over $10 million dollars. Some of you may already be supporting the Obama campaign financially; others of you may still be recovering from the primaries. None of you, however, can be happy with Palin's selection, especially on her positions on women's issues. May I suggest the following fiendishly brilliant way to send a message? Make a $5 minimum donation to Planned Parenthood, in Sarah Palin's name. A Planned Parenthood donation is tax deductible, while a political donation isn't. And here's the good part: when you make a donation to PP in her name, they'll send her a card telling her that the donation has been made in her honor. You'll need to fill in the address to let PP know where to send the 'in Sarah Palin's honor' card. Use the address for the McCain campaign headquarters: McCain for President/Sarah Palin 1235 S. Clark Street 1st Floor Arlington, VA 22202 Here's the link to the Planned Parenthood website: https://secure.ga0.org/02/pp10000_inhonor (cut and paste if necessary) Feel free to send this along to all your women friends as well as your men friends and urge them to do the same. or stick it in an envelope to (just make sure you include Palin's address): Planned Parenthood Federation of America 434 West 33rd Street New York, New York 10001
