Every time women ease toward equality, a nitwit steps backward

BOSTON -- Once more we prepare to honor our foremothers by celebrating the anniversary of the passage of women's suffrage. Each year, in advance of Aug. 26, our one-woman committee gathers to hand out the Equal Rites Awards to those stalwarts who have done the most in the past year to set back the cause of women.
What to say of the last 12 months? This is the year girls finally caught up with boys in math achievement. And the year women finally achieved equality with men in job losses. This year we had the first serious female contender for the White House. And all she'll end up with at the convention is a roll-call vote.

This is a real insult to the other women who did run.  In the first place, they did run.  In the second place, HC was only there via being married to Bill.  Hardly an accomplishment on her own.
