I am a professional woman … tagged as a “woman’s libber” year’s ago, I never liked the National Organization for Women. I always felt they denigrated women who decided to have children or chose to put their family ahead of their careers.
When Hillary Clinton was being torn apart by the MSM, NOW remained silent. When Sarah Palin‘s family was being decimated and her newly born special needs baby Trig was mocked in the most vile ways NOW remained silent.
NOW finds the word whore offensive, offended when Beck called Sen. Mary Landrieu (D-La.) a “high-class prostitute” on his radio show.
Ah, when that same word was used by the Brown campaign to describe Meg Whitman … nothing but the sounds of silence!
Yesterday, NOW finally exposed the true nature of the organization with it’s endorsement of Jerry Brown, a man whose campaign had no problem calling Meg Whitman, the first woman to possibly hold the office of Governor of California, a whore. NOW is an abortion rights group … all the other stuff (equal rights for women etc.) was fluff.
I don’t care what a woman’s political party is, she has a right to her views. When people start throwing pejorative, vicious slurs at a woman for any reason, I have zero tolerance for this kind of crap!
In my book, if you call one woman a whore you are calling all women whores. If you remain silent you are as guilty as the abuser. Calling any woman a whore is verbal abuse … period!
We all know the primary meaning of whore, but there is a secondary meaning that fits here, that being venal or unscrupulous. NOW and Governor Moonbeam are wedded together … whores forever.
Governor Moonbeam, who once said, “If it babbles and its eyeballs are glazed it probably comes from California”, has no problem with his staff calling his opponent Meg Whitman a whore … no outrage, no apology, no nothing!
Earlier this year he also compared Ms. Whitman’s advertising blitz to Hitler’s propaganda minister, Joseph Goebbels.
While I’m at it, let us not forget the jab Brown took at Bill Clinton, raking up images of the past with Monica Lewinsky.
Brown’s a classless jerk and a bore!

The Whitman campaign responded by saying:
“Meg Whitman is a pro-choice woman who was ranked among the world’s most accomplished women in business,” said Whitman campaign manager Jillian Hasner. “She’s now running to become the first woman governor in California’s history, and on the same day that it’s reported Jerry Brown’s campaign called her a ‘whore,’ the National Organization [for] Women endorses him.
It’s official: NOW is a partisan organization.”
The following is a comment from Sophia 5 at the Daily Beast (an unfortunate name for website managed by a woman):
Of course NOW is about Abortions. Isn’t ironic, how some women who support abortion rights, just might be the same women who GO NUTS, SCREAMING and HOLLERING over wolf hunts.
Lets see . . . Fetus . . . or . . . Wolf . . . which one should have more rights ?
