Tammy Bruce came to my attention back in 2007 during the "teddy bear" controversy

Let me say it again. The feminist movement used to be about improving the lives of women.   It's all about carrying the Democrats' water these days.

Back in 2007, we learned about the plight of Miss Gibbons, the school teacher who created the "teddy bear" controversy.

It was this story that brought Tammy Bruce to my attention.   She is an author and currently a contributor to Fox News.

"There has been appropriate international outrage over the treatment of Gibbons, from virtually everyone except American “feminists.” Multiple Muslim groups in the U.K. have condemned the sentence.

Even the popular little boy in Mrs. Gibbons’ class who suggested the name for the bear came to her defense, explaining that he named the bear after himself.
Yet, when asked by FOX News for a comment about the situation, a National Organization for Women spokeswoman said they were "not putting out a statement or taking a position."
This is how depraved the American left has become.

A little Muslim boy in Sudan shows more courage and conviction for a woman under fire than a bunch of women sitting in Washington, D.C., who preen themselves on being the premiere “advocates” for women.
It’s been apparent for years that the American feminist establishment is nothing more than a shill for the shallow leftists in the Democrat party, wrapping themselves in the feminist label for convenience.

Groups like NOW and Eleanor Smeal’s Feminist Majority, also amazingly silent in the past five years about Islamic terrorism and violence against women, use women’s issues as nothing more than slogans and chants in their efforts to gain political power."
So true. The US feminist movement is not about helping women. They are all about defending abortion, same sex marriage and the party left wing's agenda.

To say the least, I've been a huge fan of Tammy Bruce ever since:
