Womens Conference runs into rough seas of their own making

[Ken Burch]

230. There are lots of worthy women today-I said nothing collectively dismissive

I wasn't commenting on the worthiness of your gender at all-it would be absurd to say that no women were worthy of giving the introduction speech at the Women's Conference.

And I've said several times that I think Bernie should have refused the invitation and should still refuse it.

But is it really that out of line to say that it's bogus to reference the spirit of the 1977 conference when nobody in the feminist leadership of today supports anything close to the Call to Action that conference advocated?

I'd like to see women who support things like that being invited to speak-and there are women like that-on the activist level, on the street level. Would you be willing to call for women like that to speak to the Conference in Bernie's place? If you did, I'd join you.
