Radical feminists killing health reform?

Saturday's D&C contained a Guest Essay by Carol Crossed, President of the Susan B. Anthony Birthplace Museum.

Headlined Feminists could kill health reform, the essay recounts how radical feminists' insistence that the Equal Rights Amendment not contain language specifically excluding abortion as a "right" helped torpedo that legislation.

Ms. Crossed then goes on to predict that a similar stance by today's radical feminists might also kill health reform.

We can only hope so.

And the legislation is abhorrent with or without abortion funding.

Carol is a great pro-lifer and feminist. She has been at the front line for many years.

She's also the one who helped to buy Susan B. Anthony's original home in Massachusetts, and to promote the fact that Anthony was pro-life.
