Yes, a wonderful editorial Nancy - thanks for 
sharing!  There's so much about this whole thing that disturbs so many of us.

One of the best sound-bytes in the editorial, for 
me, was this:  " The message to women – “don’t be 
so judgmental of one another!” – is entirely 
inappropriate. We are not the judges; we are the 
ones on trial. When we are told not to judge – 
and when our decision making is portrayed in the 
form of misogynistic caricature – what we’re 
really being told is “don’t be political / don’t 
have an opinion / never express dislike for 
anyone / don’t be anything other than sweetness and light.”

Yep....
