National Organization for Women (NOW) president Terry O'Neill on Wednesday called President Obama's critique of Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) sexist.

O'Neill told The Hill she took issue with Obama calling Warren by her first name during an interview with Yahoo News published Saturday.

"Yes, I think it is sexist," O'Neill said. "I think the president was trying to build up his own trustworthiness on this issue by convincing us that Senator Warren's concerns are not to be taken seriously. But he did it in a sexist way."

Haven’t heard a word from the NOW nags about the kidnapping, rape, enslaving, and auction of women and girls by the IslamoNazis.

Obama - called a woman reporter “SWEETIE” in 2008

Was elected anyway/ Any other political career would have ended right there.

E. Warren (aka Lies-A-Lottus) is a glittering jewel of collosal ignorance.

Silly NOW, logic is for grownups.

Don’t fall for this garbage. This is a manufactured media war designed to appear as if Warren is different from Obama. They’re trying to distance her from him so she can be presented as the candidate and be perceived as an outsider...someone who is against obama who is unpopular. In reality her views and policies are the same and just as leftist if not more so than obamas.

Behold the next Leftist meme: the GENDER CARD.

Whether it’s in support of Fauxcahontas, or She Who Must Not Be Named, the media are beginning to close ranks around the Holy Sisterhodd Of The Traveling Pantsuits.

Great! I love it when one of America’s most privileged victim groups clashes with another group’s claim to superiority.

Obama has had a sexism problem since before he became president. On the campaign trail he referred to a female journalist as “sweetie,” once, which was criticized at the time.

I think you are right. This is a non-issue.

is now.org a feminist organization?

if so, there should be equal numbers of mentions of former secretary of state hillary clinton and condoleezza rice.

search now.org for hillary results, find approximately 70.

search now.org for condoleezza results, find 2.

conclusion:

now.org advocates socialism, not feminism.
