Theater of the Bizarre: NOW Endorses Jerry Brown

by the Left Coast Rebel

Yesteryday I was writing for Pajamas Media on the "whore" comment made by a Brown staffer, released by an L.A. police union group:



This in turn was perhaps the most ludicrous aspect of the story, excerpted:

Where is the feminist outrage? As Dan Riehl noted, when a staffer to Alaskan GOP senate candidate Joe Miller likened rival Lisa Murkowski's potential Libertarian party bid to the "oldest profession in the world," the feminist reaction was swift, just and vocal.

But proving that there is no shame or boundaries for sleaze in politics today - the National Organization for Women in California endorsed Jerry Brown within 24 hours of the incident. Brown waved around the endorsement as his spokesman denied any connection to the timing. The start page at the National Organization for Women has an article condemning senator Jim DeMint but nothing on "Whoregate" as well.

What would be the equivalent to this from a conservative group? I can't think of a better example of NOW being a front group for leftist-extremist causes and 'standing by their man' no matter what. How 'feminist' is that? Sounds more like battered wife syndrome to me.

Can you imagine?
