And whose issues are men’s issues? And when will women learn to respect others issues?

All women want is concessions in the name of equality and blame men for fallouts.

Pathetic lazy parasites.

Cindy Lou,

Women don’t support other women just because we’re all the same sex. It’s idealistic to say that. Women support other women that they identify with and agree with on political issues.

Conservative women have never supported Hillary Clinton. In fact we’ve lampooned her time and time again. Similarly, we watched as women’s groups failed to defend Sarah Palin amidst so many sexist attacks in the media. Why does gender set us apart? Do men support other men based on sex? This is a naive idea that we need to get beyond.

But there are only 17 women in the Senate and 74 women in the House, only 19% of our legislators are women. The NWPC (a multi-partisan organization) works to get more women elected to office – not just any women, but women who support women. Women who will, when elected, further the issues of women’s equality. However you define those issues, you need women’s voices at the table to understand the need and develop women and family friendly legislation and policy.

Sounds to me like this NWPC is a ‘junior member’ of the EMILY’s List cadre of organizations. Perhaps we’d be better off calling it the NLWPC, aka the National LIBERAL Women’s Political Caucus?
