The net effect has been to make them more untouchable than ever.

That may be true, but the scumbag "Jersey Girls" are old news anyway - - anything they have to add at this point will elicit merely a nod and a pat on the head.

What Ann has done is to put people on their toes whenever the Democrats trot out another "victim" as a human shield for their political cheapshots. People will now automatically factor in the possibility that the latest victim/advocate/spokesperson is just another prop. The net effect of Ann's rhetoric will be positive. She has taken a lot of slings and arrows for us on this.

Cathy Young is a freelance writer and vice-president of the Women's Freedom Network. Young is a market liberal (libertarian) who generally opposes government intervention in the market, which of course makes her unpopular with the generally big government-oriented feminist groups such as the National Organization for Women. In an article for The Nation, Susan Faludi identified Young as one of a number of "anti-feminist pundits" who supposedly dominate the media.

Well. Don't say that too loudly. It appears that some people are still convinced that the Stalinist Left was merely giving voice to the aggrieved widows and nothing more.

And the fact that they've trotted out one hysterical Marxist fanatic after another since the start of the war? Obviously nothing more than a coicidence!

Climbing on top of caskets to wage political war is the last refuge of the typical liberal swine.

Not a bad point.

I hope you are right.

I just cringe when people on "my side" talk this way.
