OMG! Bush wants to make our very own Magdalen laundries
for pregnant unwed mothers. If you aren't familiar with the Magdalen laundries, they were where pregnant unmarried Irish women were sent to have their babies and give them up for adoption. The girls were expected to pay for their keep by working in laundries run by Catholic nuns. They were basically slave labor camps for those "bad girls".
