Democrats complicit in GOP's anti-women agenda
April 09, 2012
(The New Republic) The Republican Party's alleged "war" against women is fast emerging as a major trope of the 2012 elections. And the charge is largely true: As the GOP has become increasingly conservative, so too has it become increasingly hostile to feminism and insensitive to women's issues.
But Democrats have not merely been horrified bystanders wringing their hands as this "war" has unfolded. The Democratic Party has actively encouraged the GOP's descent into antifeminism. And though Democrats have reaped considerable gains from the fallout, their efforts have often ultimately been to the detriment of the country's women.
