Fellow feminist blogger from Louisville

This just in: we've been teased (in a really affectionate way, imo) by Lauren, a feminist blogger from Louisville. Here's what she had to say:

Hey Ladies,

I hope you all don't get mad about this, but I've been following your Feminists for Colbert blog for a little while. I have a blog that's connected to a weekly newspaper in Louisville, KY and I'm sort of their token Feminist blogger. Also, I tend to write a lot about Stephen Colbert.

So, please don't get mad. I wrote a blog about you all and that guy at Comedy Central Insider who made those nasty comments. But, I kind of poked fun at you all, too. So... Don't take it too seriously. Just thought you'd like to know. Here's the link to the blog.

Hope you all don't hate me. I was just trying to be funny.

Love your blog by the way.

Lauren
We don't hate you, Lauren! We know that you love us. In fact, we think that guy at Comedy Central might love us, too. The jury's still out on how Stephen Colbert feels about us.

No Stephen, No!

According the The New York Times: S.C. Democrats Say No to Colbert

"GREENVILLE, S.C. — The momentum of the Colbert presidential campaign hit a cul-de-sac today when the South Carolina Democratic Party decided he wasn’t a serious candidate and turned down his application to get on the ballot.

...the party’s executive council just voted 13-3 not to certify him.

Carol Fowler, chairwoman of the state party, told us that the council “really agonized over this because they really like him, they love his show and everyone thinks it’s wonderful that he cares about us.”"

Stephen Colbert, we still love you here in Charleston, even though you've stood us up like 50 million times so far and you still haven't gotten in that skirt for Skirt Magazine.

Don't tell anyone, but this feminist is still waiting by the phone for you.
