The NY state head of NOW (that’s the National Organization for Women, btw) blew a fuse over Sen. Ted Kennedy’s recent endorsement of Barack Obama.
“Women have forgiven Kennedy, stuck up for him, stood by him.”
“We are repaid with his abandonment. He’s picked the new guy over us. He’s joined the list of progressive white men who can’t or won’t handle the prospect of a woman president who is Hillary Clinton,” she added.
I think what Marcia is trying to say here is that women forgave Ted for all that drinking, crashing cars with women in them and not trying to rescue them. Who knew that drunk abusers couldn’t be trusted, eh, NOW? What is this world coming to?
But please, Marcia… go on…
She also said Kennedy’s move underscores “our obligation — to promote and earn and deserve and elect, unabashedly, a president that is the first woman after centuries of men who ‘know what’s best for us.’ ”
I know what’s best for Hillary: Marcia Pappas keeping her mouth shut.
