How Bush treats women
How Bush Treats Women 3/17/2004

Last week President Bush marked International Women\'s Day by touting his military interventions in Afghanistan and Iraq, claiming they have liberated thousands of women from lives of tyranny and oppression.

The president\'s unusual focus on the feminist side of his foreign policy may have been designed to deflect attention from a domestic agenda that is decidedly unpopular with many women. But the speech actually obscured actions the Bush administration was taking almost simultaneously in Santiago, Chile, where it dropped its commitment to the health and survival of millions of poor women abroad.

1. Things are worse for women in both countries. The repubs
spend a lot of time finding ways to screw women. They've been doing it for decades.
