Let me ask you this: do you know ANY women that think like these women do? I'm asking because I know I don't; I'm just wondering if I'm missing them as they move about me and I don't know it.

When my aunt was dying, late one night my cousins and I were sitting around talking about our mothers; it dawned on us that OUR mothers all worked, and kept house, and had children -- we'd never known anything different.

And OUR mothers didn't make a big deal out of it and whine and moan. They just did it. It really made me so thankful that I was raised like I was.

I do NOT understand a LOT of women, if these people are represenative of them. And I really do NOT understand women who "love" Bill Clinton and his ilk.

NOW is not representive of most women. I think they are really just the Jesse Jackson's of the uterus. What they have been preying on is the guilt of most women who have had abortions. The NOW gang wants to make sure you still feel good about it. Send them a check for them to get on television and tell the world that killing your baby was a good thing and that they will make sure you should not feel guilty about it by calling it something else. The funny thing is that the women or girls who have had abortions do regret it and no matter what NOW says, it is a terrible thing in their mind. Stock in life has gone way up since the 70's. College students have never had a lower opinion of abortion than today. This is a good thing, a good trend, and one which will empty the cash accounts of NOW. That is what it is all about.

Ditto on the working mom experience. I came from a two parent family. My mom lied about her education to get her job. She said she graduated from Bryn Mawr of all places! The owner of the company knew she was lying but admired her for her tennacity. During the next thirty years she worked her way up from a secretary to a executive positions and finally on the company's board. She hated whining "victim" women. She had no time for them. I think a lot of women are like her today. They just don't have much to say because they are too busy working and raising their families. As the democrats found out though, they do vote.

My mom died of Lou Gherig's disease at the age of 62 in 1992. She never got to enjoy a retirement with her grandkids. I still carry her RNC gold membership card in my wallet for steering purposes.
