No, really.  RNC Chairman Duncan, Platform Chairman McCarthy, and Platform Co-Chair Burr invite you to submit your ideas:
 

Welcome to the most grassroots-driven platform development effort in the history of American politics!

The Republican Party is seeking your input as we develop the policies and principles upon which we should stand for the next four years. On this website, you can share your thoughts, participate in polls, and communicate directly with the policymakers who will be shaping the party's agenda.

Where's the....?

Fri Jul 11, 2008 at 10:11:36 AM PDT

  So last night, I saw a commercial on tv that shows a child looking in a closet for something, and then yelling "Mom, where's my ___?", than the husband looking for something elsewhere in the house (can't find it), "Honey, where's the ___?", and on to the next child fruitlessly searching for some elusive item that apparently only Mom has the required observational skills to locate.
  It seems to me that as with so much of the way that moms and dads are commonly portrayed in popular culture,  it somehow manages to be both anti-feminist and semi-misandrist.  Maybe misandrist isn't the right word here; see below.
