With the horror of the recent "honor" killing in Georgia as the backdrop, I'm inspired to remind everyone that women die at the hands of male family members every day in the US. In fact, 4 times a day.

I'm tired of the Right acting like they really care about women and gender equality.

The only mention of women in the 2004 Republican platform is their insistence that if a woman gets pregnant, by law she'll stay that way until delivery.

I went to a number of right wing websites and typed the words "violence against women" into their search engines. If any stories were listed at all, they were about honor killings in the Muslim world.

The Right wrap their "concern" for women in the cloak of anti-Islamic rhetoric concerning honor killings and are dumb, deaf, and blind to all else.

Enough. Islam is not the problem. Patriarchy is.

True.

Bravo Dulios!!! But the Right does have a strong woman at their forefront - Ann Coulter - whose dream is to ensure that women be denied the right to vote.

I am working for a similar group in my spare time and finding to my horror that a lot of men go through this horror too!
