Degree for Women's Fired Up Lady of the Week Award: Marianne Pearl


Better late than never, right?

So I was inspired to highlight one woman's consistent action against those responsible for her husband's death: Marianne Pearl. Last week, Pearl filed suit against Al Qaeda in US District Court in New York seeking to have some accountancy for her husband's death.

This woman is making some really brave moves and I love it. You know Al Qaeda just hates a woman in charge. And they probably hate her even more than most. And for that she's this past week's Degree for Women's Fired Up Lady of the Week.

So Congrats, Marianne Pearl. You are the Degree Fired Up Lady of the Week for the third week of July 2007. Your prize pack, along with my corporate sponsorship, is forthcoming. Brought to you by Degree Ultra Clear for Womn.

What? A lawsuit against AQ? Some would argue that AQ doesn't even exist.

Not to mention that she ok'd a white woman to play her in a movie, which leads one to question whether or not she is aware that she is a woman of color.

I mean, yes she is brave, but I might as well sue Osama Bin Laden while I'm at it if she wins a case against Al Qaeda. Wouldn't her time be better served pushing the government to cut the games and end the war? Maybe do more work around ensuring the safety of those who do go overseas to report on this assinine war?

A lawsuit against a network of terrorists that may or may not even exist but in name only?

Let me call my lawyer and draw up a lawsuit against the cancer that killed my dad.
