It is now obvious to me that NOW doesn’t represent me or any woman worth her salt.  It is a pathetic shadow of its once former self.  I wouldn’t belong to an organization that so obviously ignores women being degraded publicly, such as what transpired on the David Letterman Show for the Terminally Ignorant.

Since when is it okay for a man, any man, to publicly degrade a woman?  Why is it okay to make fun of a pregnant teenager- or one that was pregnant while she was still in high school?  Since when is being a comedian an excuse for saying ridiculously offensive, sexually harassing comments?  We’re just a hop-skip and a jump away from adopting shirea law- and why the hell not?  Obviously NOW is ready to take a giant step backward, with no backbone when it comes to standing up for women’s rights anymore.  Might as well let the abusive guys start now, and we’ll just ease into it.  By the time our rights are gone again, we won’t have even noticed that it happened.

We’re supposed to be such a progressive society, politically correct and all that crap, yet we continue to allow second-rate citizens to set the tone for all of us.

And don’t even get me started on the crap about Palin’s husband sexually abusing his kids.  Anyone who believes that should be given swirlies every hour, on the hour.
