The President’s Husband

By Lakshmi Chaudhry

"Commander-in-Chief" premiered on ABC's new fall line-up with little fanfare. The White House Project, a non-partisan group dedicated to putting a woman at the helm in 1600 Pennsylvania Ave, sponsored viewing parties for the show, while conservative supporters of Condoleezza Rice announced plans to unveil a [RETURN TO ARTICLE]

    Yawn. A women president. Oh.

    I suppose someone will write an analogous article about a black president.

    Or a Hispanic president. Or some other, um, twist.

    Yawn.

    Yeah.  It has a VERY militaristic title, for such a show, though: “Commander-In-Chief”... not POTUS or… something.

    No wonder Condi Rice “fans” want to watch it!

    I don’t think that an America “led” by a black, female President along the lines of Rice, though (or,maybe, by such a woman as portrayed by the above actress) would change the “show” very much.

    The American national show, I mean.  It’d still be imperialistic, and these days, that means in a very predatory and brutal way.

    Still.  I can see why some women are tantalized.  I wish we could all ignore men!

    Still, if they tried to undermine you like that as Prez…. wouldn’t you just SACK them and get some supportive Karl Rove types??

    Nobody dared to say anything to Reagan about his Alzheimers when he was on top.

    HTML experiment here ..

    A couple more tips ... for those who don’t already know HTML ... and one for those who use tinyURL in hyperlinks.

    Using HTML to make a hyperlink to a reference is easy.

    Here is an example of a hyperlink HTML command :

    words to become link goes here

    The line above is an inactive example.

    Replace URL goes here between the ” ” with the URL/address.

    Replace words to become link goes here between the > </a> with whatever word or phrase that you want to become the hyperlink to click on.

    I have found that using tinyURL is not necessary within the HTML command. After a bit of experimentation with HTML hyperlink I stopped using tinyURL because the URL does not get broken within the HTML command.

    Hyperlinks, see above example,

    </b> ... <b> bold
    </i> ... <i> italics

    </blockquote> <blockquote> blockquote

    are the only HTML formatting commands allowed on ITT.

    The first <*> turns the command on the second </*> with the backslash turns the command off.

    Best to experiment on an old thread to learn the ins and outs.

    It is easy to learn. I did and I am basically computer illiterate but slowly learning.
