(5,198 posts)-I too am a former brownie and girl scout. My scout leaders were strong, funny and wise women who set great examples of leadership. This was during the 60's.
I too am appalled at the many ways these good 'ol boys want to bring back the regressive policies of past centuries, and raise their daughters to grow up as second class citizens.
These RW extremists have the most warmongering, violent, misogynist, sexist and socially dysfunctional policies we can ever imagine. They have risen to power by capitalizing on hate and divisiveness and prejudice and this cannot continue.
They are organized, the loopholes created between church and state have got to be eradicated once and for all.
It will be an interesting summer of 2012, many women will hit the streets, it is time to do this once again--and show our solidarity and DEMAND representation!! Enough!!
