I found this avatar on myspace and it uses a quote from the SNL skit. Is anyone offended? I think it's a great quote as it captures Hillary's fire and determination but maybe not everyone sees it that way. If this quote bothers anyonw, please let me know.

"Bitches get stuff done"

Nope, not a bit, and I'm a woman. Tina Fey was brilliant and turned a word that's so often used in a derogatory sense into a positive for women.

Oh, definitely not. I saw this graphic on MySpace and loved it. It's great to open up bulletins and see this. On MySpace, before my "Oblahma" picture, I had "Hillary '08: Bitch Is The New Black." That was my favorite line. But I love yours too!

I love it! Where can I dl a clean copy? I want it for buttons to pass out at my county demo convention. One of my customers at work does buttons so he keeps finding Hillary logos online and making them for me....I've been meaning to make the same so you saved me time :)

I know who I'd want fighting for my cause! And it's ain't Obama!

Hillary has fire and passon, and this is what I find inspiring!

She has the COURAGE to stand up to people and tell them how it really is!

She fights the battles others turn away from.

She doesn't let the fear and dominance of others stop her - she confronts them HEAD ON!

If that's called being a "bitch", then she has my 100% support to become even more of a bitch! Maybe then a few things might actually CHANGE in this country. CHANGE doesn't come from smiling and preaching. CHANGE comes from HARD WORK and through standing up to those who oppose change.

Meanwhile her opponent says-anything, does-anything, to-get-your-vote!!

Great idea. Such t-shirts would definitely be a hit I think!

I've decided to update my avatar and signature with a cleaner message!

I don't want any non-Hillary supporters or others to misunderstand the empowering sentiments of "bitches get stuff done" and "bitch is the new black".

So I am reverting to something more conservative!

We also discussed the pros/cons of reclaiming "negative" language here:

You could try contacting the myspace user: http://www.myspace.com/getmywishI want to get a button and a T-shirt made from it too. Black background is a must to go with the "new black" line, but without the possible confusion with black as in Obama's race. If you could get me a large enough version of the official Hillary campaign logo used in it, I could combine the Bitches get stuff done part in Photoshop for you.
