Women do not live that way in this country. They are free, and they are very
active in all aspects of American life.


There is a strange silence from the usual women's organizations who are
constantly equating `Women's Rights' with `Basic Human rights', in regard to
the way women are forced (yeah......forced!) to live under repressive rules in
Islamic and\or Arabic countries.


I wonder where all those `Woman's rights' groups are now.......probably the
same place they always are when they're really needed; hidin' under a rock!
