  1. “jessi,exactly,reproductive choice. That’s THE single issue they stand on. If it happens to be against your faith, you are not welcomed, for example Sarah Palin, how dare she stand by her faith and have a down’s child.”

    Legion, reproductive choice is part of NOW’s platform. Those who don’t share the same views as to this platform tend not to be embraced by the organization.

  2. Oh and Legion, there is absolutely no comparison between Palin and Biden, in any regard. Despite Biden’s famous gaffes, he is extremely knowledgeable and competant re Foreign Affairs – he was a long time member of the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations, becoming the head of the committee in 2006. He gets reelected not only because of his knowledge and competance but because he is beloved by his constituency.

  3. jessi,
    exactly,
    reproductive choice.
    That’s THE single issue they stand on.
    If it happens to be against your faith,
    you are not welcomed,
    for example Sarah Palin, how dare she stand by her
    faith and have a down’s child.

    if NOW was really about women’s issues,
    they would accept the true variety of American women
    and stand firm on an issue like Burkhas which pose a very real worldwide threat to women in that they represent a culture which seeks to keep women as chattel.

  4. “Bottom line, NOW is a woman’s group for Democratic Women,
    Republican women need not apply.”

    One of the main platforms of NOW is reproductive choice so that’s probably part of it.
