Katha Pollitt, writing for The Nation and the lovely bloggers, Kate Harding especially, writing at
Salon's Broadsheet.
If you, too, are looking for a place to channel your outrage, these might be some good places to start. And if reading should spur you to action, consider joining the e-mail action alert networks of
NARAL or
The National Women's Law Center.
On a happier/more hilarious note, here is Sarah Haskins being...hilarious.
