Hey Rush and Freepers: Miers is a Femi-NAZI!

Harriet E. Miers has played a key role in exposing college students to some unmistakably liberal ideas.

In the late 1990s, as a member of the advisory board for Southern Methodist University's law school, Ms. Miers pushed for the creation of an endowed lecture series in women's studies ... also gave money and solicited donations to help get it off the ground.

A feminist icon, Gloria Steinem, delivered the series's first lecture, in 1998. In the following two years, the speakers were Patricia S. Schroeder, the former Democratic congresswoman widely associated with women's causes, and Susan Faludi, the author of Backlash: The Undeclared War Against American Women (1991). Ann W. Richards, the Democrat whom George W. Bush unseated as governor of Texas in 1994, delivered the lecture in 2003.

2. We can't use the word Nazi to describe Conservative Fascists!

But they can call Feminists Femi-Nazis. Is there something wrong with that?

yes of course there is something wrong with a double standard, but I would like to think that we would hold ourselves to a higher standard than the likes of limbaugh anyway.
