"Marcia Pappas, NOW-NY's president, wrote in a news release that on a host of issues and positions, "Women have forgiven Kennedy, stuck up for him, stood by him," but "We are repaid with his abandonment. He's picked the new guy over us. He's joined the list of progressive white men who can't or won't handle the prospect of a woman president"

NOW has about 50 members.
New York NOW Chapter SLAMS Ted Kennedy for endorsing Hillary's opponent
The sexism of NOW is breathtaking. We all must support Hillary because she arguably is a woman. No one can make a judgment based on anything else.
You'd better put some ice on that Marcia. You know you wanted it.
You bunch of hags.....You pick and choose and excuse anyone who sides with you on your cause; cause you are all loonies....
C’mon Marcie, take a couple of Estrogens and chill. That’s a good girl.
Forgiven him for what? Are these NOW hags suggesting that Kennedy did something wrong, but "women have forgiven" him for it? (Mary Jo Kopechne was unavailable for comment.)
...NOWs picked the white woman over us. They've joined the list of progressive white organizations who can't or won't handle the prospect of a black man for president..."
I think he threw NOW off the bridge.
I just wish I was certain that there won’t be a Obama/Hillary ticket in our future.
So, Ted “accidentally” drowns a woman friend, and NOW gives him a pass. Ted supports a “clean, well versed” man and NOW disses him.
Could there be some kind of agenda here?
Look what world they have created for themselves.
If you support Barack over Hillary, you are sexist.
If you support Hillary over Barck, you are racist.
They all must be thanking their stars that their actual vote is secret, and if they keep their mouths shut, no one can call them anything bad.
Translation: “We will ignore homicide and other crimes, as long as you advance our agenda, but look out if you are no longer our faithful minion”
Priceless.
What problems they have:
ignore darfur and any real womens issues
and implode over who to support...
the wife of the guy who rapes women or the favorite of the guy who has killed one.
This is the key portion of the quote. These ladies are old and getting older. Because they embraced shallow adolescent values for an entire lifetime, they are not capable of peacefully entering this portion of their lives. Sad.
