Nurses union, purveyors of 'Queen Meg,' back for second act
SacBee: Capitol Alert ^ | 8/20/12 | David Siders

The California Nurses Association, which antagonized Republican Meg Whitman with its relentless "Queen Meg" parody during the 2010 gubernatorial campaign, is back for a second act - this time poking fun at wealthy people opposing Gov. Jerry Brown's November ballot initiative to raise taxes.

The influential union, in a campaign to paint tax opponents as "bungling billionaires," will stage a skit on Tuesday at the St. Francis Yacht Club in San Francisco. The union promised reporters a "colorful event," with visuals including life rings and a model yacht.

University nursing departments taught women’s studies material at least as early as the late-’80s.

I’m not a California nurse, but I can say my nursing program in the 1990s white-washed the legacy of Margaret Sanger, painting her as the patron saint of public health.

It wasn’t until just a few years ago after hearing someone talk about her on conservative talk radio that I discovered the BS that I had been spoon-fed as an undergrad.

Nursing has been co-opted by left-wing extremists. Make no mistake.

“...will stage a skit on Tuesday at the St. Francis Yacht Club in San Francisco.....”

They must have had Slow Joe’s input on the site selection!
