I could be wrong but I don't think she's as pro-choice as all that. I seem to recall it was one of the reasons she left NOW. But as I said, I could be wrong.
I do like the way her mind works. Unlike a lot of lefties, she doesn't promote fantasy as reality (she wrote a great piece last week, excoriating the PC motives behind the new Harvey Milk HS here in NY). And she always cuts right to the chase. I will have to pick up her book.

Yeah, she emphatically states she is pro-choice and likely always will be. It was one of the few things I disagreed with her on.
She said her main reasons for leaving NOW, was their blatant polticicizng of women's issues and how she felt they no longer represented the best for women in America.
She mentions these things a few times in her book...

Ever read Camille Paglia? Believe it or not, she was one of the reasons I was turned onto conservatism...

I do like the way her mind works.
Several years ago, when she was a talk radio host out here in the Los Angeles area (this during her very liberal period), I still enjoyed listening to her.
Unlike the rest of the herd, she always possessed a great sense of humor and was downright entertaining....no fasting in shifts for her!
Oh yeah - she was also pretty close to falling into the "total babe" category - unlike 99% of Lesbians.
