A Stinging Critique of Two New Pro-Abortion Books.(With Liberty and Justice for All: A Life Spent Protecting the Right to Choose)(How the Pro-Choice Movement Saved America: Freedom, Politics, and the War on Sex)(Editorial)
This edition of National Right to Life News includes reviews of three new books. Time did not allow for me to personally read two otherspro-abortion books authored by Kate Michelman and Cristina Page. Instead I will borrow from a positively brilliant composite review written by Molly Ziegler that appeared in the New York Sun.
Ziegler reviewed Michelman's With Liberty and Justice for All: A Life Spent Protecting the Right to Choose and Page's How the Pro-Choice Movement Saved America: Freedom, Politics, and the War on Sex. Michelman is the former president of NARAL. Page is vice president of NARAL of New York's Institute for Reproductive Health Access.
Ziegler begins with the keen observation that the number of House Democrats has dropped by almost a third since 1980, concomitant with the near evisceration of pro-life Democrats. Politically speaking, that qualifies as a bloodbath, which, come to think of it, is an apt metaphor.
Ziegler pointedly asks the two-part question pro-abortionists avoid like the plague. If there really is the "pro-choice majority" they keep harping about, why do they avoid the legislative arena, fighting "most of their political battles in the courts" instead? Moreover, "how have pro-lifers racked up so many political wins?"
