A must-read: Shameful women

Check out this editorial from The Capital Times, Shameful women. Yeah, I know it's kind of old. But I don't care, read it anyway; take a look at the first bit:

Ellen Sauerbrey, Patricia Brister, Susan Hirschmann, Janet Parshall - are you familiar with these leaders in the women's movement?

Don't worry, neither is anyone else - because the foursome have absolutely no experience working for women's rights.

Nice...

Awesome article, the only complaint I would have is that it is too short! *smile*

The interesting thing though, you have to admit, is that we have heard virtually jack-shit about this in the mainstream media ... you'd thing the most major gathering for women's rights in the world might have been something worth covering ... but what do I know, I'm a foreigner ...

Janet Parshall doesn't just host "a Conservative talk show." She hosts the talk show for Concerned Women For America. I heard her back in my fundy days when she was just starting out. She's noxious. CWA is women making money and working out of offices telling other women that women belong at home raising children and tending to their husbands. Talk about cognitive dissonance.

I remember Ellen Sauerbrey when she ran against Maryland Governor Parris Glendenning. When Glendenning won the election, Sauerbrey demanded a recount. Marylanders called her "Ellen Sauergrapes."
