One can justifiably be called a Badass for many things.

Testifying before a select group of House investigators when your corrupt boss tells you not to is Badass.

Bigtime Badass.

Thank you Badass Fiona Hill.

The Admins should be able to do a little one in the style of the smilies they already have. I'd love it.

14. I may get slammed for this, but...

I am of the impression women may be a serious deciding factor in our country's salvation at this juncture. Not to discount the Shiffs, Schumers, Naders, etc amongst us. But I really hope history doesn't once again male-wash a watershed moment.

15. You replied to my OP, but I am not sure what you meant. On the face of it, I agree with you.

Am I misreading your intent?

16. I probably shouldn't have included the introductory qualifier to my post.

Basically, I'm gratified to see badass women doing the right thing and hoping those who write the history of this period don't gloss over that and give credit for saving our nation where credit is due. Women's contributions tend to get forgotten over time. I'm just hoping things really have changed enough for that not to happen yet again.
