IRAQI WOMEN'S CAUCUS -
Rep Kay Granger (R-Texas) appeared on the Fox "News" TV Channel [all blondes; all the time] early this morning as the leader of the U.S. Congressional Iraqi Women's Caucus. Unfortunately, I was channel-surfing at the time and tuned in during the middle of her appearance, so I didn't catch much of it.
But there is a related deadtree article online.
Granger just returned from a
confer in Amman about this issue.
*...20 women candidates - representing different parties, religions and perspectives - are braving a hostile insurgency and an uncertain future in Assembly elections that will usher in a post-U.S. Iraq. Assembly members will have the daunting task of writing a new Constitution.
The meeting [was] held in Amman because of safety concerns in Baghdad.*
