The Fear that Miers is a Closet Feminist (gasp!)


The plot thickens. Yet more panic appears to be whipping through anxious conservative circles. In the early 1990s, Harriet Miers worked to establish the Louise Raggio lecture series at SMU.

Check out this list of speakers!

Gloria Steinem
Patricia Schroeder
Susan Faludi
Gwen Ifill
Geraldine Laybourne
Ann Richards
Colleen Barrett and Herb Kelleher

There are a couple of names I don't recognize, but the ones I do know are famous for instilling fear and dread in conservative circles everywhere.

Just like a good feminist should.

Sometimes you just have to sit back and enjoy the show.

Hat tip to Kevin Drum who has more.
