Helen Thomas and Lindy Boggs
Two kick-ass women who did the hard work of American Public Service. And if you think doing it as women was a soft gig, think again.
Ms. Thomas was the first woman in the White House Press room in an industry more famous than firefighting for macho, sexist behaviors.
And when Representative Boggs (Dem, La.) took office, women couldn't even get credit cards (no cheap laughs, please).
