Dear Friends, Whats good for the goose, eh? "[Betty] Friedan's over-stuffed suitcase burst open on the luggage carousel, disgorging what the News described as ''naughty'' contents. A fellow delegate who was present at the time tells PAGE SIX that those naughty items were a cache of ''S&M magazines depicting women in extreme bondage........" And these phoney old bags claim to stand up for womens rights? What a crock! FTC-Linda ------------------------------------------------------------ http://www.nypostonline.com/gossip/pagesix.htm THE KINKS IN FRIEDAN'S TRAVEL KIT FURIOUS feminist Betty Friedan has been quick to criticize fallen House Speaker-elect Bob Livingston for his indiscretions, but Friedan has carried some kinky baggage as well. After Friedan and some of her cohorts insisted on an unscheduled 20- minute pow-wow with Livingston last week, she said he was ''extremely insulting to the modern American women's movement.'' And earlier in the day at a news conference in support of Bill Clinton, Friedan denounced the President's enemies as ''a bunch of dirty old white men trying to use sexual issues wrongly.'' But the remarks by Friedan, 77, a co-founder of the National Organization for Women, sound hypocritical coming from a woman who once packed graphic pornography in her bag while on a political mission. Back in July of 1984, the Daily News reported on an incident at the San Francisco airport when Friedan arrived for the Democratic National Convention as part of the New York delegation. Friedan's over-stuffed suitcase burst open on the luggage carousel, disgorging what the News described as ''naughty'' contents. A fellow delegate who was present at the time tells PAGE SIX that those naughty items were a cache of ''S&M magazines depicting women in extreme bondage.'' According to the witness, ''Both Friedan and the delegates around her were extremely embarrassed.'' Friedan, who has dismissed Clinton's sexual indiscretions as ''private behavior'' and ''his business,'' could not be reached for comment. Her attack on Livingston was prompted by his confession to fellow Republicans during an impeachment strategy session. He subsequently announced his resignation from the Speaker's post and from the House. ***************************************************************** Please feel free to forward this email across the USA! ***************************************************************** Join our free "FTC" - FOR THE CAUSE - List!!!
