Name That Feminist Issue

Take Steve M.’s multiple-choice test — see if you can do better than the New York Sun’s editors did:

Question: Which of the following did the right-wing New York Sun just describe as a political figure’s “war on women”?

(A) John McCain’s call for the immediate overturn of Roe v. Wade.

(B) Rush Limbaugh’s speculation that John Edwards’s infidelity took place because he “might be attracted to a woman whose mouth did something other than talk.”

(C) The Bush administration’s attempt to classify some forms of birth control as abortion.

or

(D) Barack Obama’s plan to limit tax increases to individuals making more than $200,000 a year and couples making more than $250,000.

I’m sure you guessed. It’s (D).

You get an A. The New York Sun gets an F.
