In reply to the discussion: Hillary's stance on Women's rights [View all]Ramses
(721 posts)20. I posted HER OWN WORDS.

There -is- a war on women. I am not at all sure that teenage celibacy addresses it

Hillary's been on a "global crusade"? Maybe that explains the extreme violence perpetrated against Muslim women w/ hardly a peep from her as SoS.

I'm willing to entertain the possibility the OP doesn't actually know what an abortion is.
