Countless tulip bouquets and greeting cards will change hands this Sunday. Children across the land will burn toast making breakfast in bed. Hammocks will lie empty and sports will go unwatched. It's Mother's Day, and sons, daughters, and husbands everywhere will do their best to show love for Mom.

A little Mother's Day "gift" to NOW and Patricia Ireland.

SSFMK PING! And happy Mother's Day to all!

Neither Kim Gandy nor her stupid jurrasic organization speak for me. They dare to speak of "Mother's Day?" They hate motherhood....

Dear Pat, You turned a blind eye during the Clinton years, it's our turn to greet you with a deaf ear. Go away and stop bothering people.

They also deserve a modern feminist movement that recognizes what women really want is not more government but more flexibility, freedom, and control of their lives

Nice column. Thank you for the ping.

Patricia Ireland seemed so happy to be working with the women in Afghanistan, who had been oppressed by the Taliban government.

You'd think she would have learned, from her experiences in Afghanistan, that women want freedom.
