But, I don't know whom you mean.

Quote: "I think that too many people involved with NARAL, too many people with Planned Parenthood, too many progressives in general, and too many politicians and media news-critters allowed the reproductive right struggle to be framed by the right as dealing with abortion." Who are these traitors to women's rights, autonomy, and health care?

I am sorry if you felt stung by Dr. Santee's reply, but I point out that the recriminations you deplore were not 'mutual' until she replied to your post.

Do you have ideas for re-framing the struggle so that it is not defined by anti-choice forces? If you do, I'm sure many would love to get involved. How can individuals help in this endeavor?

Traitors? Beg Pardon? Vogon_Glory Jan 2012 #7

You didn't call them traitors, but you characterize them as "fat, dumb, and happy." yellerpup Jan 2012 #8
