It was the Independent Womens Forum that she was CEO of. I distinctly remember her being on during the Bush years and railing about how women should not be exercising political voices or power while she herself was earning a living doing the same damned thing. Most of the women on the right have that same problem. Ultimate hypocrites--using political voices and power to take power away from other women and shut them up. And no one ever calls them on it.
And her defense of Clarence Hill forever puts her on my poop list.
