NOW did the right thing !

 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.
