The F Word: The Business of the Right's Anti-Choice Crusade
March 30, 2011The latest front in the all-out war on abortion is once again South Dakota, which succeeded last week in passing a law that forces women seeking abortions to first get advice at “pregnancy help centers,” otherwise known as “crisis pregnancy centers,” which are not heath care centers, but rather places where anti-abortion counselors pressure pregnant women to carry to full term.Nawal El Saadawi, Pushing the Elephant, and Rev. Jacqui Lewis
March 11, 2011"We live in one world, not three. I'm very much against that we have three worlds. We have one world dominated by the same system," says Nawal El Saadawi, the pioneering Egyptian feminist thinker.

October 22, 2010"The chamber’s increasingly aggressive role — including record spending in the midterm elections that supports Republicans more than 90 percent of the time — has made it a target of critics, including a few local chamber affiliates who fear it has become too partisan and hard-nosed in its fund-raising."
