Anyone know who that was? I watching at work and just caught snips here and there, and am just curious.

Thanks!

3. President of the national organization for women.

Terry O'Neill. I think she was talking to Lawrence O'Donnell.

5. She was the lady head of NOW. She predicted that Komen would go within 5 yrs.

7. I wonder if that will happen. With Komen backpedaling FOR NOW, I hope people

don't think "well THAT'S over!". Since they're not committing to future years, I'm just too suspicious to hope they really learned a lesson. The political pressure will continue (from the RW) and I'm betting they'll succumb again. If politics allowed them to think it was okay to pull needed health care from women in need, I doubt if this is a true epiphany. Merely a political move. And hopefully if they DO try this again, the public will be even more outraged that they tried to pull that stunt again.

Boy, I've got it all mapped out, don't I?

8. You do but it is true. This whole issue should finally be a wake up call to all women and

men who love their women. From now on we must support PP directly. No giving to these side charities. We must keep aware that republicans want to get rid of PP. It has been their mission. Even though PP government money does NOT go towards abortions. Only private funds go for abortions. Women and men need to worry about their wives, and daughters and their granddaughters. We must make sure birth control products are always available to everyone and not just the rich. Women wake up and spread the word.
