Subject: "W" does NOT stand for women
| Dear
Muhaideen,
When George Bush announced his �W Stands for Women� campaign, I was astonished and appalled. But now there's something we can do about it. I encourage you to take action below. Bob Fertik, Co-founder A few days ago, President Bush launched a new ad campaign aimed at securing women's votes called �W Stands for Women�. The hypocrisy of this move is outrageous. "W" does stand for a lot of things, but women's rights is certainly not one of them! In fact, George W. Bush has waged an all-out war on women's rights and health ever since he took office. Please join FreeChoiceSavesLives.org in speaking out against this hypocrisy. Click here now to send a free message telling Ken Mehlman (campaign manager for Bush-Cheney �04) that "W" does not stand for women and you won�t stand for these ads! With friends like President Bush, women really don't need enemies... Bush�s first official act as President was to reinstate the devastating Global Gag Rule - a coercive policy that denies funding to foreign health care providers that educate women about their right to choose. The Bush administration has also refused to release the crucial $34 million Congress has approved to fund the UN Population Fund (UNFPA), a life-saving organization that works to prevent HIV/AIDS and provides family planning and maternal health care to the world's neediest women and girls. Not content to attack women�s rights abroad, the Bush administration also passed the so-called "partial-birth" abortion ban making it a crime for American women to have late-term abortions. And Reuters recently reported that the Bush administration has been systematically "stripping information on a range of women�s issue from government web sites and reports" to further its political agenda. It�s bad enough that George W. Bush has done these things to endanger
women�s lives, but it�s simply unacceptable for him to do so while
claiming publicly that he "stands for women"! Join
