NOW President Says Potential Lott Replacement No Improvement
December 20, 2002
"Trent Lott made the right decision to step down as Senate Majority Leader," said National Organization for Women (NOW) President Kim Gandy. "But if he thinks that stepping down will save his party more embarrassment, he couldn't be more wrongespecially if his successor is Bill Frist." Sen. Frist (R-Tenn.) is currently the front-runner to replace Lott and has garnered widespread support from conservatives who have always considered Lott too moderate.
"Few senators have a worse voting record on civil rights than Trent Lottbut Bill Frist is one of them," Gandy noted. "Frist has voted against sex education, international family planning, emergency contraception (the morning-after pill), affirmative action, hate crimes legislation and the Employment Non-Discrimination Act. This is the man who is supposed to save face for the GOP in the Senate? Think again."
"The Republican Party is making a huge mistake if they are assuming that reluctant apologies and a different face will camouflage their record of undermining civil rights," Gandy said.
"Karl Rove, credited by insiders with engineering the exchange of Lott for Frist, will be the de facto Senate leaderand the idea of the U.S. Senate being run from the White House ought to give every Senator pause," Gandy said.

Hey Ms. Gandy maybe he is also tired of paying high taxes just to fund all of your pet projects.

Kim...Kim...
How'd you like the way Bill Clinton treated the women around his office ? No opinion ? Nothing to say ?
To: TheRedSoxWinThePennant
This is important. We must get advise and consent from NOW for all Republican plans and actions. This is only fair since they have been so upfront about comming to conservatives for input on their appointments and policies.

"hey ms gandy we dont appoint baby killers to majority leader"
According to WND and some on FR Frist is a baby killer?
I say if NOW is again Frist he's our man?
To: TheRedSoxWinThePennant
LOL. If NOW had said nice things I'd worry.

When was the last time anyone, and I mean anyone, paid any attention to NOW? |
For that matter, when was the first time?
Anytime I read any "press release" from these pinheads, I can't help but imagining the Nazi high command in the bunkers on the beaches at Normandy at about, oh, 6 o'clock in the morning on June 6, 1944 frantically calling their masters...

We must get advise and consent from NOW for all Republican plans and actions. We could ask for their advice, and then do the exact opposite. Just so long as they don't catch on . . . .

"The Republican Party is making a huge mistake if they are assuming that reluctant apologies and a different face will camouflage their record of undermining civil rights," Gandy said. There is no one at NOW who has a clue about rights.

I am pretty sure I have heard him speak about his pro life stance but I shall research it further but yes if now is against him I would think it a good sign

"The Republican Party is making a huge mistake if they are assuming that reluctant apologies and a different face will camouflage their record of undermining civil rights," Gandy said.This assault has never been about Trent Lott. It is simply the left, out of power, jumping on any opportunity to spit on the Republican Party. This will continue until our guys stand united and tell them to #$&% off.

Bill Frist ought to hire a mouthpiece who has the courage to go on national television and rip her apart. I would do it but the witch inflamed me so badly I would be tempted to give a two word retort and a one had salute.

"Few senators have a worse voting record on civil rights than Trent Lottbut Bill Frist is one of them," Gandy noted. "Frist has voted against ... international family planning [Pro-serial killing code speak for international abortion on demand] emergency contraception (the morning-after pill), affirmative action [Lieberal code speak for special treatment quotas, a very racially polarized issue], hate crimes legislation [Again, very racially charged issue spewed forth in liberal code speak] ... This is the man who is supposed to save face for the GOP in the Senate? Actually, it isn't about saving face, but the lieberal spittle queen would like to have it stamped as such. It is about having leadership that can think on his feet, will not cave in to Daschle threats and obstructionism, and will carry out the Compassionate Conservative agenda that benefits all Americans without segregationist posturing that panders to special hyphenated minorities and thus doesn't denegrate by association/dfacto coddling. Think again."
"The Republican Party is making a huge mistake if they are assuming that reluctant apologies Uh, ms Gandy, that's why the buffoon, Lott, must be replaced and a different face will camouflage their record of undermining civil rights," Gandy said. My my, the man must be better at the job he's applying for than even I thought him to be! Race baiting and pandering to murder, Inc. will not likely abate now, but the fools doing it will be more exposed for their true colors now. Can someone say 'over-played their collective liebral societal engineering hands?' Oh yeah!

If NAG opposes him that is a pretty good recomendation.
To: TheRedSoxWinThePennant
Frist isn't again stem cell research on cells already harvested but is against new ones being harvested. This and the fact he didn't vote against Satcher a fellow MD from his home state are their reason they're on the war path against Frist.
WND also uses Debaka news as front line headlines so you can decide if they are for real or not?
Farrah also voted for Jimmy Carter over Ronald Reagan in 1980 so he's a real good one to listen to because he had very good judgement - NOT!
