The Sound of the Crowd

Calling all women, calling all girls

You need to read this. Salon.com’s Life section has a story about how “the Bush administration has quietly removed 25 reports from its Women’s Bureau Web site, deleting or distorting crucial information on issues from pay equity to reproductive healthcare.”

Hard to believe it’s the same Bush administration who, Karen Hughes assured us, “has employed more women in senior-level staff positions than any other presidential administration,” isn’t it?

And hey, Hughes herself is a woman, she’d know, wouldn’t she? And what about Condi? Certainly the administration can’t be misogynists, then.

Man, I wish “Bushwomen” had been a better book…
