Speechless. After watching the movie "Iron Jawed Angels" that is what I can say about womens suffrage. What these men do to these women was even beyond my most horrific dreams.These women should be respect strongly for thier actions. Those men at the time were unable to see they damage they appled into all the lives of the women at this time. This is why I stand with want these women did and against the mens reaction to it as well.
In the cartoon shown on the website link, this is describing the wife going to vote whole the man has to stay home and take care of the house it use to vise versa. Alice paul would have smiled and laughed solely at the man because of what she went through to get the right for women to vote. She would have been extremly happy for all women. If she would to see that cartoon in a weekly newspaper Alice would would feel relief that she finnaly deafeted everyone against her campaign for womens rights. Also it would be a good motive booster for women across the the U.S.
In conclusion Alice Paul and her partners were literaly Iron jawed. They withstud everthing thrown at them and prevailed with scars but with victory at thier sid. This also changed mens respect for women back then greatly. Watching this movie was extrodinary and learning about these women was intresting. I'm exited to know about the sacrifice from the "Iron Lawed Angels."

BP4 QTR3: Presidents day
Hey! Do you know that holiday, President's Day? Yes, the one we got of school on last Monday! Well it is actually one president's birthday, and that is George Washington. But does that really matter? I think not. Why change when we can celebrate all president's in one day. And besides to most of you it is just another day off of school.
Washington once said, "my ardent desire is, and my aim has been to comply strictly with all our engagements, foreign and domsetic; but to keep the United States from plitical connections with every other country." In other words, he will fight every battle, but will not cooperate with other governments using politics. A bold statement, but you must cooperate with others especially when you are president.
But what was said about him was spectacular. Things such as "his example is complete and shall teach us numerous things." But if these commentors were here to see other presidents they work they would redirect those words.
So all in all, yes George Washington was born on President's Day, but all of the other presidents have a birthday as well. So it doesn't matter what we celebrate on this holiday, even if you celebrate it at all.
