Illinois NOW President Dissed Obama in Past

In the wake of accusations that Obama buddy Emil Jones called a Hillary supporter an "Uncle Tom," the president of the Illinois chapter of the National Organization of Women has called for Jones's to get out of town. THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME that Grabenhofer has gone against Obama. Today: Bonnie Grabenhofer, the president of the National Organization for Women's Illinois chapter and a Clinton supporter said the remarks that Cobb alleged Jones made were symbolized "the incredible pressure that had been put on, particularly women, to support Barack Obama." "Women in Illinois had that pressure, and it was particularly hard for African-American women who were placed in the untenable position of having to chose between their race and between their gender," Grabenhofer said.

Rather, Obama's critics say he ducked a "no" vote; supporters say it was a tactical move. Those interpretations seem to have split the leaders of the Illinois abortion rights movement. Obama should have voted "no" on those bills, said Bonnie Grabenhofer, president of the Illinois chapter of the National Organization for Women, which has endorsed Clinton.
