Ohhhh, there's another of my buttons!  It really gets to me when some wrongly
informed person who is opposing breastfeeding for whatever personal reason is
labeled "Christian", as if it is the worst thing they can be called!  Many of
us staunch breastfeeding supports are Christians.  But that term is a
catch-all for negativity right now, from many sides.

I, too, had heard about the conservative group that began a call-in and
letter campaign to oppose our Texas legislation.  If Phyllis Schaffly is the
one behind this here also, keep in mind she had an agenda all her own, and
very little of it has to do with true Christianity!  Many of us outside of
Austin also began a letter-writing and call-in campaign in support of the
legislation.  And we'll continue to follow up on this, not letting it be
dropped or forgotten.
