I was glad to read this morning that the National Organization for
Women will not sleep in the same bed with its more rabid political
opponents.They apparently agree with the female federal judge who
found that the Paula Jone's case had no real credibility as " sexual
harassment ".
And Paula Jones has certainly tainted herself with right wing politics.
Still it easy to begin to feel some sympathy for Mrs. Jones. I think
she was swimming in very murky waters and is now over her head. She has
her legal rights which no one should want to deny her. Maybe some good
will come out of her case after all.
The implacable right wing haters of Bill Clinton should realize that
they cannot bring him down with cheap sexual soap opera stories. Have
they no confidence in their own IDEAS ?
I do perceive NOW to be oriented toward the middle class ambitions
of the better educated women. In the past the very best FEMINISTS were
blatant SOCIALISTS with critical attitude toward capitalist society. These
gifted women would never turn their backs on the poor and the working
class. They would never whine in public about " glass ceilings " in corporate
America. They understood that female tyrants were in no way preferable to
the male ones.
