7. It's Muslim-bating

and entirely unnecessary. Is your point to proclaim your own sense of superiority to Muslims or talk about the very real oppression that CHRISTIANS and REPUBLICANS in this country impose on women?

It is far from semantics. I care about women's rights, but I despise prejudice of all kinds. If you have to distort an article to grind a political axe, you weaken your case. Do you want to alienated Muslim women? Or do you just not care about them? Is this a white middle class women only need apply? No black Muslims, no Arab or Persian women? You're working for reproductive rights of a minority of American women, and have excluded others with your unnecessary Islamophobic language. Blame is on Islam, when it is obviously Christian fundamentalists behind this. What does that sort of distortion do but alienate women?
