I used to go on college campuses 25 years ago and announce I was a feminist, and people thought it meant I believed in free love and was available for a quick hop in the sack. ... Now I go on college campuses and say I'm a feminist, and half of them think it means I'm a lesbian. How'd we get from there to here without passing "Go"?

Good thing we've still got politics in Texas - finest form of free entertainment ever invented.

You can't ignore politics, no matter how much you'd like to.
