Back during the run up to the 2000 election, while Libby Dole was still in the race for the Republican presidential nomination, I went to a used book sale put on by the "Friends of the Library". While I was looking over the selection of books, I could hear the women working the sale talking about the race and being especially hard on Libby Dole. I popped up and reminded them of all of Mrs Dole's accomplishments and honors and opined that she should be the poster girl for Women's Lib.
One of the workers responded, "She would be - if she were a woman!"
Perplexed, I asked, "She's an adult human female. Doesn't that make her a woman?"
The response came back, "No! She's a republican so she cannot be a 'woman'!"
That was almost 20 years ago. It has only gotten worse since then.
“I popped up and reminded them of all of Mrs Dole’s accomplishments…’
Did you happen to include the one where she announced her opposition to allowing any American to obtain a permit to carry a gun?
DOLE'S VIEWS ON GUNS CAUSE SUPPORTER TO QUIT
http://www.nraila.org/ila/gr0521.99
As was reported in last week's FAX Alert, Republican Presidential candidate Elizabeth Dole has chosen to include gun control as a major component of her campaign. This decision has not only outraged potential voters who support our right to keep and bear arms, but it has already cost Dole one of the leaders of her New Hampshire state presidential campaign. State Rep. Fran Wendelboe, a Right To Carry permit holder, cited Dole's position on gun control as her reason for resigning from the campaign. Although she wished Mrs. Dole luck, she also stated, "She (Dole) and I are just too far apart now on the gun issue." Continue to contact the Dole campaign, using the information from last week’s Alert, and also available at http://www.nraila.org, to voice your objections to her support of Clinton-style gun control.
I’ll never let Libby skate on this one, just as I’ll never let her husband skate on pushing the Brady Bill through the Congress late at night when there was none of its opponents were present.

I would think that intel on "where" might be more valuable than intel on "what."
