Thatcher vs Clinton

By The Daily Dish

Nov 9 2007, 11:31 AM ET

A real feminist vs a phony one. Peggy Noonan explains:

The point is the big ones, the real ones, the Thatchers and Indira Gandhis and Golda Meirs and Angela Merkels, never play the boo-hoo game. They are what they are, but they don't use what they are. They don't hold up their sex as a feint: Why, he's not criticizing me, he's criticizing all women! Let us rise and fight the sexist cur.

Liz Mair echoes the argument. One reason I cannot stand Hillary Clinton is that I'm a feminist.
