The Other McCain

"One should either write ruthlessly what one believes to be the truth, or else shut up." — Arthur Koestler

We Need to Tone Down the Rhetoric

Otherwise, all this extremist talk about “choice” and “women’s rights” might lead to mass murder:  A massacre perpetrated by a deranged man is not about the deranged man; it’s about “rhetoric.” But a massacre perpetrated by an abortion provider whose violations against laws of the nation and of humanity were overlooked for years is “not […]

Feminism Is to Honest Debate What Kermit Gosnell Is to Humanitarianism

Which is to say, its antithesis: I think we’re all pretty well agreed that if the charges against Kermit Gosnell are true, then dude is a criminal and needs to go to jail. Killing a baby after it’s born and has taken breaths? Is not abortion. It should be, and is, a crime punishable by […]

Professor on Aborted Babies: ‘I Look at Them Unflinchingly and See Meat’

“I’ve scooped brains out of buckets, I’ve counted dendrites in slices cut from the brains of dead babies. You want to make me back down by trying to inspire revulsion with dead baby pictures? I look at them unflinchingly and see meat. And meat does not frighten me.” — Paul Z. Myers, University of Minnesota […]

You’re Not Disgusted Enough Yet

“Bags and bottles holding aborted fetuses were scattered throughout the building. . . . A row of jars containing severed feet lined a shelf. . . . Untrained, unsupervised workers injected dangerous drugs into women undergoing illegal late-term abortions.” — Philadelphia District Attorney Seth Williams Everybody blogged about this Wednesday, but I don’t think it […]

It does not play a part in the sterile laboratories of their minds where they grow the fetid cultures that are their utopian ideas. . . . [I]deas are all that matter to the Enlightened Progressive. Every revolution has been based on this thinking […]

Abortion Is Murder, and Sometimes We Are Brutally Reminded of That Fact

Even the Associated Press can’t ignore this story: A doctor who provided abortions for minorities, immigrants and poor women in a “house of horrors” clinic has been charged with eight counts of murder in the deaths of a patient and seven babies who were born alive . . . (Via Memeorandum.) UPDATE: John Hayward at […]

The Fatherhood Deficit

“I find it far-fetched that women are having abortions because no one is willing to help them give the baby up for adoption — there are lots of people and agencies that will not only help them, but pay a substantial portion of their expenses until they deliver. They’re having abortions because pregnancy is physically […]

Sodomy Is Not Pro-Life

Just pointing that out for the benefit of Andrew Sullivan who claims to be Catholic — e.g., his post about Epiphany — and seizes upon Ross Douthat’s pro-life column today to make a plea for “expanding adoption opportunities.” Nudge. Nudge. While it’s tragic, I suppose, that Sully isn’t a zillionaire rock star who can afford […]
