Reasons  for feeling very cross about this article:

* comparisons with Nazi  Germany are offensive on many levels


~~ Heather,
 
Ah, no imagination these days, or is it there is nothing new under the  
sun..
 
I remember watching an American TV show that didn't last, a good 20 years  
ago I bet, where someone called for breastfeeding counseling, to a group 
called  Das Milken Society. ( An obvious dig at LLL). The counselor was said to 
have  told the crying new mother in pain that she should just hang in there 
and  someday things will be better. She slammed the phone down, repeated 
this to her  family, called the counselor a Nazi, and said "Order the kid a 
pizza, I quit.  "
 
Sad, we are still right there..
 
Peace,
Judy
