Hi Bill:
Patricia Ireland asked the same question this morning. She wanted to
know why the Rutherford people never backed them in the 30 years that
they needed help, and now all of a sudden want NOW's help. IMO that is
a very good question.
She said the main reason that NOW will not get involved is because this
is a political issue, not a sexual harassment issue, and that the Right
wing, and in particular Susan Carpenter McMillian is using Paula Jones
for their own selfish agenda's, and NOW wants not part of it.
They instead are throwing their support to the case that is presently
before the Supreme Court, and are going before Congress, etc and
lobbying for harder laws concerning this.
